History

The magazine has been published by Dow Jones & Company since 1921.[13] The magazine is named after Clarence W. Barron,[4] an influential figure to Dow Jones and a founder of modern financial journalism. Dow Jones also publishes The Wall Street Journal. In 1990, color was introduced to the magazine and full color in January 1996. Barron's introduced a two-section version of the paper on March 7, 1994. Barrons.com[14] [15] was launched in 1996 as part of WSJ.com.

In 2005, following "its first redesign in nearly 11 years"[16] Barron's relaunched as a standalone product,[17] months after their first Financial Advisor conference.[18]

In September 2008, Barron's acquired the Winner's Circle Organization.[19] In September 2009, Barron's launched Penta as a new section. The section targets "pentamillionaires", individuals with at least $5 million in assets, with financial advice.[20] [21]
