I don't know for sure, but I presume it was in the '94-'95 timeframe. TMB was a product of FNN at the time of this schedule and that network flamed out a few years later with the nascent CNBC picking up some of the pieces. The syndication contract likely had to run its course before the NBC affiliate could be 'voluntold' to carry it, so I presume that would've shaken out about that timeframe.

I was an avid watcher of 'This Morning's Business' from 1995-2000. I think the show folded in 2000 or shortly thereafter. It was a well made show.

so you were a huge fan of the show.
 
In New York, Inside Edition now airs on WCBS at 7:00 with ET at 7:30, just like WFSB then and now. Seems WPIX didn't have its WB affiliation yet (now CW), and Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! would eventually swap time slots on WTNH in CT.
