Bloomberg Terminal Spring 2024 Guide: Lief Library: Industry Information

Using Bloomberg for Industry Information

The Bloomberg Intelligence menu

The <BI> menu is the best place to start when looking for industry information. In this example, we access the <BI> menu through the company Pepsi or PEP. Users who are analyzing an industry for the first time should look at the Industry Primer if one is available. If you cannot find an Industry Primer for your company, you can use IBISWorld, another library database. The data library in the <BI> menu is where you can find the market share and valuation. The valuation menu will help you compare companies within the same industry by looking at their key indicators and other industry-specific metrics. These key indicators will vary from industry to industry, sector to sector. The litigation dashboard is also a good place to find any legal cases.
