Dow Jones & Company

Dow Jones & Company publishes The Wall Street Journal, a daily newspaper and Barron's[?], a weekly magazine that both cover U.S. and international business and financial news and issues. It was founded in 1882 by three reporters: Charles Dow, Edward Jones[?] and Charles Bergstresser[?].

Dow Jones & Company is co-owner with NBC of the CNBC television operations in Asia and Europe, which are branded "a service of NBC and Dow Jones." Dow Jones also provides news content to CNBC in the U.S.

• Dow Jones Composite Average[?]
• Dow Jones Global Titans[?]
• Dow Jones Industrial Average (often called simply "the Dow")
• Dow Jones Transportation Average[?]
• Dow Jones Utility Average[?]
• Dow Jones U.S. Large Cap Growth[?]
