Thanks Blast. It gets a nice wiki page:

http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/景気

Looks to me like Macro Business. (Like the Macro and Micro Economy definition)

It looks to me like 'business condition'.

It is like "business condition" or "economic condition".

If you say "景気 is good," then that means you or the company (or the economy) is doing well financially or profitable.

It also is used as part of an antonym 不景気 ("not 景気"): business recession; hard times; depression.

Unfortunately most of my experience doing business with Japan was during 不景気. Not when 景気 was good. Alex is right about the meaning without question.
