Some country indices keep getting the same price, how do I fix it?

Hi? I am receiving price data of thousands of stocks and 50 national indices through the EIKON API every morning around 7:00 KST(GMT+9). 
However, among the 50 national indices, the following six indices continue to receive the same price as the previous day. 
The RICs are as follows. 
.DJI .IXIC .NYA .SPX .GSPTSE .MERV 
How to deal with this?

Hi @H_U

The data service offers many prices and depending on the exchange, the population of some price fields is based on when the closing run occurs. That being said, I would suggest you look within the DIB (Data Item Browser) to view the different price fields available. For example:

df, err = ek.get_data(['.DJI','.IXIC','.NYA','.SPX','.GSPTSE','.MERV'], 
                      ['TR.PriceClose','TR.PriceOpen','TR.BIDPRICE',
                       'TR.ASKPRICE']
