    @brendan,

    Please see the following discussion previously happened on this forum
    https://community.developers.refinitiv.com/questions/15616/eikon-scripting-api-issues-with-timeseries.html

    Until 3K shared rows limit is addressed I would expect all kinds of unexpected behavior when using get_timeseries method with a list of RICs. I do not reproduce the error you received when executing get_timeseries method with the single RIC 'ABI.BR'.
    As an alternative you can retrieve close prices for a list of RICs using get_data method:

    ek.get_data(['ABI.BR', 'AOO.BR', 'BEFB.BR', 'BPOST.BR', 'BRED.BR'], ['TR.PriceClose.date', 'TR.PriceClose'], {'Sdate':'2016-04-01', 'EDate':'2017-03-31'})
