The bank holding company generates revenue from investment banking, global market making and trading, lending, asset management, wealth management, and a small and declining portfolio of consumer credit card loans.

Founded in 2017, Lime operates in more than 280 cities across nearly 30 countries, offering short-term rentals for electric bikes and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44353699/niu-q4-rides-high-on-demand-for-e-scooters-but-gross-margins-decline-amid-higher-costs">scooters</a>. According to Reuters, the San Francisco-based startup has been considering a public listing for several years, but the current uptick in IPO activity may provide a timely window to execute the move.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Lime's Financial Turnaround Gains Investor Attention</h2>
In February, Lime<a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250218624910/en/Lime-Delivers-Record-Revenue-and-Profitability-Positive-Free-Cash-Flow-in-2024"> reported</a> a 32% increase in net revenue, reaching $686 million for 2024. The company also confirmed that it was free cash flow positive for the second year in a row, a rare feat in the micromobility sector, which has historically struggled to stay afloat.
Lime CEO Wayne Ting described 2024 as "an exceptional year" for the company, citing strong results across key financial and operational metrics, including record profits and expanded global reach.
&#8220;We grew profits faster than revenue in 2024, posting another record year of results through serving more than 24 million riders in hundreds of communities around the world and bringing Lime to more cities globally,&#8221; Ting said in a statement. &#8220;While we saw record demand in 2024, we're just scratching the surface of micromobility's potential to transform cities and better connect people.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">IPO Market Recovery Offers Fresh Opportunity</h2>
According to Reuters, the potential IPO follows a broader rebound in the U.S. public listing market, which raised nearly $27 billion in 2024 so far, a 45% increase compared to the same period last year.
Although the total still falls short of the 2021 record of $177 billion, companies like Circle Internet (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>), which recently raised over $1 billion through an IPO, have signaled growing investor interest in growth-stage tech firms, Reuters says.
Lime's IPO may test investor sentiment in the micromobility space, where competitors like Bird have filed for bankruptcy in recent years, Reuters reports. Unlike others in its category, Lime received prior investment from Uber and is among the few micromobility firms still pursuing public markets. Uber led a funding round for Lime in 2020, at which time the company was reportedly valued at $510 million.<a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/uber-backed-electric-bike-startup-lime-hires-banks-us-ipo-sources-say-2025-06-24/">&nbsp;</a>
According to Reuters, sources familiar with the matter expect the upcoming IPO to value Lime significantly higher than its last reported valuation, although exact figures have not yet been disclosed.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Lime Targets Urban Pollution With 43 Million Car Trip Replacements</h2>
Environmental sustainability remains a core focus for Lime as it scales globally. According to the company, Lime riders helped avoid an estimated 20,000 metric tons of CO₂ emissions in the last year by replacing car trips with shared electric vehicles.
Lime estimates its service replaced over 43 million car trips in 2024 and prevented the consumption of roughly 2.2 million gallons of gasoline, equal to approximately 8.5 million liters. The company says it also continues to lower its own operational footprint.
By offering electric scooters and bikes for trips under five miles, Lime says it aims to shift the way urban communities move while supporting city efforts to reduce traffic congestion and meet climate goals.

Evercore ISI Group Maintains Outperform on Goldman Sachs Group, Raises Price Target to $715

Wall Street's biggest banks are rewarding shareholders with a wave of dividend hikes and buybacks totaling more than $100 billion, after clearing the Federal Reserve's 2025 stress test with capital left to spare.
What Happened: Last week, the Federal Reserve&#8217;s annual stress test, which gauges how well large institutions can withstand a severe recession scenario, showed all 22 participating firms remained comfortably above minimum capital requirements.
The aggregate common equity tier 1 (CET1) ratio dropped to a low of 11.6% under the hypothetical downturn, well above the regulatory threshold of 4.5%, according <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/publications/files/2025-dfast-results-20250627.pdf">to</a> the results published by the Fed.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46208521/circle-crcl-stock-bank-bid-crypto-stablecoins">Circle&#8217;s Bank Bid Could Be The Biggest Crypto Story Of The Year</a>
This means that even under the Fed's severely adverse scenario, which includes a deep recession, surging unemployment, and sharp declines in asset prices, the largest banks would still maintain a strong capital cushion, without requiring any government support.
As a result, several of the nation&#8217;s leading banks have wasted no time in announcing major capital return plans for shareholders. 
JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) led the way with a 7% hike in dividends, alongside $50 billion in fresh stock buyback authorizations. This was the result of a lower stress capital buffer of 2.5%, down from 3.3%, allowing it to free up capital to return to investors.
Similarly, Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) authorized a $20 billion buyback program, along with a 10% hike in its dividends, followed by Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>), Wells Fargo &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>), Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>) and Bank of America Corp.

Why It Matters: While the major banks passed the tests with ease, analysts note that the simulated downturn <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46158087/big-banks-pass-feds-2025-stress-test-with-ease-but-some-say-it-was-too-easy">made milder assumptions</a> compared to the previous year, featuring smaller declines in housing and commercial real estate prices, alongside a more moderate spike in unemployment.
The 2025 test also failed to include private equity and private credit risks that have since ballooned into a $2 trillion market over the years.
In 2024, the study results were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39525918/major-banks-fall-short-in-feds-2024-stress-test-results-the-market-will-view-the-re">worse than expected</a> for most banks, with higher projected losses compared to the prior year. However, all 31 of the major banks met the capital requirements to address a severe crisis.

Federal Reserve

Wall Street's $100 Billion Payout Parade: JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Lead Capital Return Wave After Acing Fed's 2025 Stress Test

On Friday, June&nbsp;27, the Federal Reserve released the results of its 2025 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review ("CCAR") stress test process. Goldman Sachs expects the firm's Stress Capital Buffer ("SCB") requirement will be 3.4%, resulting in a Standardized Common Equity Tier 1 ("CET1") ratio requirement of 10.9%, effective October 1.
The Federal Reserve will provide the firm's final SCB requirement by August 31. These results and effective date may be subject to further changes pending the finalization of the Federal Reserve's outstanding proposal on SCB averaging.
In addition, the Federal Reserve disclosed that the firm's current SCB, from the CCAR 2024 test, has been reduced by 10&nbsp;basis points to 6.1%. This results in a current CET1 ratio requirement of 13.6%, effective immediately.

Goldman Sachs Expects 2025 Stress Capital Buffer Of 3.4% And Common Equity Tier 1 Requirement Of 10.9% Starting October; Federal Reserve Lowers Goldman Sachs' Current SCB To 6.1%, Setting CET1 Requirement At 13.6%, Effective Immediately

The firm's capital plan includes a 33% increase in the common stock dividend from $3.00 to $4.00 per share beginning July 1, 2025, subject to approval by the firm's Board of Directors at the customary third quarter meeting. This increase is a continuation of the firm's plan to pay shareholders a sustainable and growing dividend.

Goldman Sachs Group Intends To Increase Its Common Stock Dividend From $3.00 To $4.00 Per Share Beginning July 1, 2025

The first half of 2025 has come to a close and 21 of the 30 stocks that make up the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/dow-jones-industrial-average">Dow Jones Industrial Average Index</a> are positive year-to-date.
Despite the impressive number of stocks with a positive performance in the first six months, the index was up around 4% with several of the components posting large declines.
2025 Performance: Through the first six months of the year, two <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/magnificent-seven">Magnificent Seven stocks </a>are among the 10 best in the Dow Jones Industrial Average and two are among the 10 worst in the index based on performance.

Here are the 10 worst performing Dow Jones Industrial Average stocks in the first half:
<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>): -38.3%</li>

</ol>
Overall the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>), which tracks the index, was up around 4% in the first half of 2025. This was a lower gain than the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), which tracks the S&amp;P 500, which had a 5.7% gain in the first half.

Why It's Important: Nvidia was one of the new Dow Jones components <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/24/12/42726598/dow-jones-2024-scoreboard-top-5-winners-losers-and-how-amazon-nvidia-could-reshape-2025">added in 2024</a> and the stock is one of the top performers in the first half of 2025. The stock replaced Intel, which was a top decliner in recent years.
The index also got rid of Walgreens, which was another poor performer in recent years. Its replacement Amazon was flat for the first half of 2025.
The new index makeup is showing strong signs of positive returns.
With 21 of the components positive year-to-date and one flat, this could mark one of the best years by the number of gainers in recent history.
In 2024, 18 of the 30 stocks were up for the full year. In 2023, 19 of the stocks in the index were up.
Perhaps most surprising is that two of the Magnificent Seven stocks rank among the worst performers in the first half of 2025, despite being part of the four Mag 7 members included in the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
Apple was the fourth-worst performer in the index for the first half, falling 18.1%. That marks a sharp reversal from its standout status as the only Dow Jones stock to rank among the top gainers in both 2023 and 2024.
Amazon ranked ninth with a flat return, as only eight of the components were down. 
The Dow Jones Industrial Average remains one of the most closely watched stock market indexes, serving as a gauge of overall market health. With only 30 stocks and a weighting based on stock price, rather than market capitalization, the index is less frequently used by some analysts and market experts than the broader S&amp;P 500 Index.

Dow Jones 2025 First Half Scoreboard: Top 10 Winners, Losers — Where Do Nvidia, Apple Stock Rank?

Amid the turmoil and uncertainties in recent months, U.S. equity markets have reached a staggering new milestone, with market capitalization hitting $63.8 trillion.
What Happened: On Monday, in a post on X, The Kobeissi Letter shared recent data from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) showcasing the remarkable surge in valuations in the U.S. equity markets over the past five years.
&#8220;This is incredible,&#8221; the post says, adding that the &#8220;U.S. market has never been this large,&#8221; after doubling from under $31 trillion in 2020.

For comparison, the post notes that it took eight years, from 2012 to 2020, to double in value during the previous cycle, clearly highlighting the acceleration being witnessed in U.S. equity markets, which comes despite substantial trade, tariffs, and geopolitical uncertainties.

To further emphasize the magnitude of this milestone, the post says that U.S. markets are now &#8220;three times larger than Europe&#8217;s,&#8221; while being larger than the &#8220;combined market size of Europe, China, Hong Kong, Japan, and India.&#8221;

Last week, the index flashed a sign that traders refer to as a &#8220;Golden Cross,&#8221; when the 50-day moving average rises above the 200-day moving average, often seen as a sign of momentum picking up and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46124290/sp-500-hits-record-highs-and-history-says-the-best-is-yet-to-come">new high being underway</a>.
Analysts note that since World War 2, the Golden Cross has appeared 37 times, and three out of four times, it has led to gains.
Price Action: The S&amp;P 500 was up 0.52% on Monday, trading at 6,204.95 points, while the Nasdaq ended up 0.47%, at 20,369.73, followed by the Dow Jones at 44,094.77, up 0.63%.

US Stock Market Hits Record $63.8 Trillion, Doubling In 5 Years: Now Bigger Than Europe, China, Japan, India Combined

Financial analyst and strategist Tom Lee stated Monday that Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) will play a crucial role in the banking sector&#8217;s future, highlighting the rationale for buying and holding the second-largest cryptocurrency in reserves.
What Happened: During a CNBC interview, Lee was confident that financial behemoths such as Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) and JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) would use Ethereum to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/06/45998961/ethereum-l2-chosen-for-jpmorgans-new-step-in-public-blockchain-space">power their stablecoin offerings</a>.
&#8220;Ethereum is also the architecture that future banks will have. When Goldman issues a stablecoin and JPMorgan doing it on Ethereum, as a Layer-1 blockchain they&#8217;re going to want to secure it by staking Ethereum,&#8221; Lee said. &#8220;We&#8217;re trying to get in front.&#8221;

It also lets users earn rewards in return.
Moreover, due to its smart contract capabilities and its role as a leading platform for decentralized finance applications, it plays a significant role in powering stablecoins. According to <a href="https://defillama.com/stablecoins/chains">DeFiLlama</a>, it has a stablecoin market capitalization exceeding $126 billion, the highest among all networks.
Price Action:  At the time of writing, ETH was exchanging hands at $2,482.94, down 0.85% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>The Importance of Congressional Transactions</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Rep. Jared Moskowitz Has Bought Up to $60K Worth Of HCA Healthcare Stock: Here's What You Should Know

The Federal Reserve announced on Friday that all 22 of the nation&#8217;s largest banks successfully passed its 2025 stress test, maintaining adequate capital buffers even under a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/analyst-ratings/25/06/46125160/expert-outlook-bank-of-america-through-the-eyes-of-15-analysts" rel="noreferrer noopener">hypothetical recession scenario</a>. However, analysts noted that this year&#8217;s exam was less demanding than previous iterations, CNBC <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/27/big-banks-all-pass-less-vigorous-federal-reserves-stress-tests.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
The central bank&#8217;s simulated downturn included milder assumptions compared to 2024—featuring smaller declines in housing and commercial real estate prices, a more moderate unemployment spike, and reduced overall market disruption.

The report adds that these factors likely contributed to the more favorable outcomes for major financial institutions.
Michelle Bowman, the Fed&#8217;s newly appointed vice chair for supervision and a President Donald Trump appointee, said in a statement, &#8220;Large banks remain well capitalized and resilient to a range of severe outcomes,&#8221; CNBC adds
The scenario estimated roughly $550 billion in total losses across the tested firms, yet all remained above regulatory minimums.
Unlike last year&#8217;s exam, which included steeper declines and more severe economic pain points, the 2025 version omitted deeper stress on private equity holdings and did not evaluate exposure to private credit markets—a rapidly growing $2 trillion segment.
Fed officials offered limited explanation for the shift, only citing past volatility in test outcomes and a plan to seek public input for future revisions.
Notably absent from the 2025 methodology was any direct testing of bank vulnerabilities to private credit. Despite recent warnings from Fed researchers—including the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston—about the systemic risks private credit could pose in a sharp downturn, the Fed&#8217;s stress test documents made no reference to the sector.
Top-tier institutions such as JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>), Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), and Bank of America Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) were among those that cleared the exam.
Their solid performance positions them to resume capital return programs, including dividend payouts and share buybacks, with announcements expected next week, the report adds.

10 Financials Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Digital Asset, the developer behind the Canton Network, has raised $135 million in a funding round backed by major Wall Street players <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42047066/goldman-sachs-to-spin-out-digital-assets-platform-amid-blockchain-push">including Goldman Sachs</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) and Citadel Securities, alongside leading crypto investors.
The round, led by DRW Venture Capital and Tradeweb Markets, signals growing institutional confidence in blockchain solutions designed for traditional finance.
The new capital will <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/digital-asset-raises-135-million-to-accelerate-adoption-of-canton-network-302488899.html">accelerate</a> the onboarding of real-world assets onto the Canton Network, which Digital Asset describes as the first public, permissionless Layer-1 blockchain offering configurable privacy for institutional use.
The network already supports a broad range of assets, including bonds, commodities, repos, mortgages, and alternative funds.
Other participants in the round include BNP Paribas, Circle Ventures, The Depository Trust &amp; Clearing Corporation (DTCC), IMC, Liberty City Ventures, Optiver, Paxos, Polychain Capital, QCP, Republic Digital, 7RIDGE and Virtu Financial.

Goldman Sachs' Mathew McDermott said, "Our longstanding relationship with Digital Asset stems from a deep conviction in the strength of their technology, which continues to be foundational to the development and ongoing success of GS DAP."
Don Wilson, CEO of DRW, emphasized the maturity of the market, stating, "We are at the inflection point of being able to use blockchain at scale in traditional markets."
The funding is set to bolster Canton&#8217;s position as a blockchain protocol tailored for regulated institutions, offering privacy controls that have long been a barrier to enterprise blockchain adoption. 
Digital Asset says Canton already has nearly 400 participants within its ecosystem, reflecting momentum among both traditional and decentralized finance players.
Digital Asset CEO Yuval Rooz added, "This funding milestone validates the inevitability of what we envisioned years ago: a privacy-enabled public blockchain designed specifically for institutional adoption."
The Canton Network enables asset synchronization across financial markets with an emphasis on real-time, private, and interoperable settlement, a feature that its backers see as a step toward modernizing financial infrastructure.
