    Hi dancarr22,

    For Power BI Matrix visual, the value level shows below the column level. Based on your screenshot, I create the similar structure data sample as follows.



    Then I create Matix visual like you.



    If you want to display data like the format in Tableau, you need to unpivot Value and SpreadCost columns. Please right click your table->Query Editor->select both  Value and SpreadCost columns->Unpivot columns(see the button highlighted in yellow background), click apply, you will get the data shown in screenshot.



    Then select the Ticker as Row level, the Attribute and MarkerTicker as column level, the Value.1 as Value level, you will get expected result.


    Best Regards,
    Angelia

In excel's pivot table fields, you just switch the values and the column headers, that's it. Hopefully, there is a power bi solution short of creating individual measures for each column/value combination that needs to be maintained over time.
