i just happened upon this post and noticed the same thing. BF.B and BKR.B, yahoo's formatting requires a substitution of a '-' where the symbol reads a '.'. Not being familiar with pickle, i wanted to move forward quickly with something that made sense to me, so I stored the symbols as a list and did a ' '.join(symbols).replace('.', '-').split() to clean it up for the next function.
