Purpose & Capability
The name/description promise financial data and market insight; the SKILL.md contains only static background, timeline, and analysis consistent with that purpose. There are no unrelated requirements (no binaries, env vars, or installs).
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions are limited to a short metadata 'read_when' and static content; the skill does not instruct the agent to read files, access environment variables, call external endpoints, or transmit data.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or code files are present (instruction-only), so nothing is written to disk or fetched at install time.
Credentials
The skill declares no env vars, credentials, or config paths and the instructions do not reference any secrets—requested privileges are minimal and appropriate for a static reference skill.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and user-invocable is true. The skill does not request persistent presence or elevated privileges and cannot autonomously access external resources beyond normal agent capabilities.
Assessment
This skill is a static, read-only summary of Bloomberg and does not connect to Bloomberg Terminal or provide live market data. It appears coherent and low-risk, but note: the source and homepage are unknown, so the content may not be official or up-to-date. If you need real-time data, authenticated access, or authoritative Bloomberg content, use an official integration or verified data provider and avoid relying on this skill for trading or compliance decisions.

Like a lobster shell, security has layers — review code before you run it.

Bloomberg Alt

Overview

Bloomberg L.P. is the world's leading provider of financial data, news, and analytics, built around the iconic Bloomberg Terminal — a $25,000/year subscription platform used by 350,000+ finance professionals globally.

Historical Timeline

  • 1981: Michael Bloomberg fired from Salomon Brothers; starts Innovative Market Systems
  • 1982: Merrill Lynch invests $30M for 30% stake; first Bloomberg Terminal ships
  • 1990: Launches Bloomberg News — competes directly with Reuters
  • 2001: Bloomberg becomes Mayor of New York City; steps down as CEO
  • 2008: Terminal subscriber count reaches 270,000; revenue exceeds $7B
  • 2024: Terminal revenue ~$13B; 350,000+ subscribers; dominates financial data market

Business Model

Terminal subscriptions (~$25K/user/year) generate 80%+ of revenue. Additional revenue from Bloomberg Media (TV, digital, radio), Bloomberg Beta (VC fund), and Bloomberg Philanthropies. Terminal pricing is inelastic — finance professionals cannot function without it.

Moat Analysis

Network effect — everyone in finance uses Bloomberg, so everyone must use Bloomberg. Integrated data, analytics, news, and messaging (IB chat) in one platform. 40+ years of data history and proprietary analytics create irreplaceable value.

Key Data

  • terminal_revenue: ~$13B/year
  • subscribers: ~350,000+
  • terminal_price: ~$25,000/year
  • market_share: ~33% financial data market
  • employees: ~20,000

Interesting Facts

  • The Bloomberg Terminal's orange keyboard was designed so traders could identify their workstation instantly on a busy trading floor — it is now an iconic symbol of Wall Street.
  • Michael Bloomberg still owns 88% of the company — it is one of the largest privately held media and technology companies in the world.
