Fill Down in Excel (macOS)
Press Command + D to copy the cell above into the selected cells.
What it does
Select the cell you want to copy together with the cells under it, and Fill Down copies the top cell into the rest. It copies the value, the formula and the format. In a formula, relative references shift row by row, the same as when you drag the fill handle. With a single cell selected, it copies the cell directly above.
