read.zoo does not allow multiple index fields but you can read it in using read.table, combine the index fields and use read.zoo to read the resulting data frame. Note that read.zoo can read data frames, not just files. Also note the aggregate= argument on read.zoo allows direct handling of situations like this where there are multiple time series each indicated by a field, in this case, SYMBOL.
