Default My excel file is too large (5 mb) when it shouldn't be, why?

I have an excel file has ballooned in size for some reason. I have tried to
copy all the cells and then used "paste special" to paste just the values and
the file size doesn't reduce. I am copying numbers from an investment
website into my spreadsheet and there don't appear to be any issues with the
pasted cells but I suspect it is causing the file size expansion and very
slow performance. I then deleted all the cells around by spreadsheet and it
didn't help at all.

All suggestions as to how I can fix this problem appreciated.
