Hi, I do not understand why after I called apply on a function that returns an xts (getIdvAdjSeries) it returns a matrix whose columns are just numeric value of time series in xts instead of a list of xts objects. Basically, I called the following: apply(matrix(tickers,ncol=1),1,FUN=getDivAdjSeries) getDivAdjSeries <- function(ticker) { seriesName <-

Dear experts, I?ve been on this for weeks now, and couldn?t find a solution..Sorry for the long description.

Hi, all I wanted to fetch data from Bloomberg for govt bonds, and analyse it further. I am having trouble in getting data as when I use field=PX_LAST, it is giving the prices but when I use field=CPN, or ISSUE_DT, it is not giving the results and just bouncing back <NA> for that.

Dear R Helpers, I am trying to change the name of an object using the assign function. When I use paste on the new object but not the old, everything is fine: The new object is a direct copy of the old object.

I have a data.frame which I believe is melted already and am having trouble casting it to 'wide' format. It looks something like > (x <- data.frame(ticker=c(rep("A",5),rep("B",6)), date=c(1:5, 1:6), value=c(NA,100*exp(rnorm(10,0,.1))))) > cast(x, date ~ ticker) # this does what I want with toy data But when I use my real data frame >

Dear R Helpers, I am trying to adjust the attribute of an R object pulled from quantmod. Since I want to do this for many such objects, I was trying to make the adjustment programmatic.
