start.date = as.Date("2013-03-01"))
spx_ndx <- bdh(securities = c("SPX Index","NDX Index"),
fields = "PX_LAST",
start.date = as.Date("2013-03-01"),
include.non.trading.days = TRUE)
monthly.options <- structure(c("ACTUAL", "MONTHLY"),
names = c("periodicityAdjustment",
"periodicitySelection"))
spx_ndx_monthly <- bdh(securities = c("SPX Index","NDX Index"),
fields = "PX_LAST",
start.date = as.Date("2012-01-01"),
options = monthly.options)
goog_ge_div <- bdh(securities = c("GOOG Equity","GE Equity"),
