Yahoo historical not working for Vanguard bond ETF's

[Ivan]

Hi Mark,

Yahoo historical price retrieve is not working for me for Vanguard bond ETF's. Two examples are BNDX and VMBS. I can give you some others if it will help. It works for other Vanguard funds. If I select a date range of 7/28/2015 through 7/28/2015 (yesterday) it gives an message saying it was unable to retrieve any prices.

Thanks,
Ivan

Hi Ivan,

Did you try looking these symbols up on Yahoo with your web browser? I just did, and they appear to be unavailable currently. Based on the search results that come up when you start typing a symbol, it kind of appears like Yahoo used to have them, but they aren't showing any quotes for either of those symbols at the moment.

Hi Mark,

This has happened before, and seems to last for a few days to a few weeks and then gets fixed. I don't know why it is only for bond funds. Hopefully they will fix it soon.

Thanks,
Ivan
