Regardless of what we decide to retain, we should confirm what historical prices published by an exchange actually are, whether they are adjusted to address stock splits only or stock splits plus dividends, etc.
We also discussed the issue with the bonds ontology in that it still brings in reference data, mainly for sovereign instruments such as treasuries. From JG: I think we should have a separate category for sovereign instruments and put all the government instruments there. The main reason is that how they are issued is quite different from normal bonds. Sovereign bonds are issued via auctions. Note that municipal bonds shouldn’t be put under sovereign bonds since municipalities aren’t “sovereign” – don’t know how better to say it – and municipal bonds aren’t issued via auction.
This makes a lot of sense, so rather than creating a number of individual jurisdiction-specific ontologies, for now we will move sovereign debt instruments to a separate ontology. That ontology can bring in additional reference data, such as the governments that issue these instruments, which we would exclude from the about FIBO prod - tbox only, but include in the reference data one.
