Default Sort data in rows to column

I would need to re-arrange the format of the data. My current data is:
In row 1, every 3 columns has headers Opening, Spent, End balance (ie A1 is
Opening, B1 is Spent, C1 is End bal), the same Opening, Spent, End balance
repeats in columns D to F, G to I, so on). The data (of numbres) is at Row 2.

My intention is to have i column for Opening, 1 for Spent and 1 for End
balance. Hence, I can do pivot from the new format. How can I do that without
copying each 3 columns one by one to the new format. Any other excel
functions can help me to rearrange quicker. Thanks.

In cell A3 apply this formula and copy across to B3,C3. once done copy the
formulas down as required...

=INDEX($2:$2,ROW(A1)*3+COLUMN(A1))
