MATLAB: When I specify an equity name to the FETCH function in the Datafeed Toolbox for the Bloomberg datafeed, is this equity name case-sensitive

Question

When I specify an equity name to the FETCH function in the Datafeed Toolbox for the Bloomberg datafeed, it appears this equity name is case-sensitive.

Answer 1

This enhancement has been incorporated into the documentation for R2007.

The equity names supplied as the second input argument to the Bloomberg FETCH function within the Datafeed Toolbox are case-sensitive. Ensure that the case of the specified equities match those used by Bloomberg.
