A business magazine formerly known as BusinessWeek, now called Bloomberg Businessweek after acquisition by Bloomberg L.P. Focuses on business news, analysis, and market trends.
Compound of 'business' and 'week,' indicating weekly coverage of business news. Founded in 1929 as a McGraw-Hill publication, the name reflected the magazine's commitment to regular, timely business reporting in a weekly format.
BusinessWeek launched just two months before the 1929 stock market crash, making it one of the few publications to witness and report on nearly every major economic event of the past century - from the Great Depression to the dot-com boom to the 2008 financial crisis.
