Convert sequential vertical data (rows) into horizontal data (columns)

I have a dataset that lists company name, stock ticker, stock price & currency in a vertical manner & combine the transformed result with another table that contains column headings.

 

Question 1: I'd like to convert the table so that it looks horizontal as seen below. I've tried using the Cross Tab & Summarize tool but was not able to get the result that I was looking for.

 

Before Transformation

Apple1
AAPL2
130.63
USD4
Google1
GOOGL 2
2116.443
USD4

 

After Transformation

1234
AppleAAPL130.6USD
GoogleGOOGL2116.44USD

 

Question 2: Once the table is converted in a horizontal manner, I am planning on appending the 'After Transformation' table to another table that contains the actual column headings. I have not tried this yet because I'm trying to resolve Q1 but if you have a different approach, please let me know.
