''The Nikkei'', , is Nikkei Inc.'s flagship publication and the world's largest financial newspaper, with a daily circulation exceeding three million. The roots of the Nikkei started with an in-house newspaper department of Mitsui & Company in 1876 when it started publication of ''Chugai Bukka Shimpo'' (literally ''Domestic and Foreign Commodity Price Newspaper''), a weekly market-quotation bulletin. The department was spun out as the Shokyosha in 1882. The paper became daily (except Sunday) in 1885 and was renamed ''Chugai Shogyo Simpo'' in 1889. It was merged with ''Nikkan Kogyo'' and ''Keizai Jiji'' and renamed ''Nihon Sangyo Keizai Shimbun'' in 1942. The paper changed its name to the ''Nihon Keizai Shimbun'' in 1946.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nikkei.co.jp/nikkeiinfo/en/corporate/history/ )〕 Nikkei 225, a stock market index for the Tokyo Stock Exchange, has been calculated by the newspaper since 1950. ==Ownership== Nikkei Inc. specializes in publishing financial, business and industry news.
