Wall Street profits reach $45.9B in H1 2026
profits in the Wall Street securities sector soared to $45.9 billion in the first half of 2026, with expectations of setting a new annual record. In 2025, profits reached $65.1 billion, marking an increase of over 30% compared to the previous year. This rise was driven by deal activity, market volatility boosting trading revenues, growth in lending, and the return of initial public offerings. If growth continues at this pace, sector profits are projected to exceed $90 billion in 2026, surpassing the inflation-adjusted record figures from 2009. As always, Wall Street remains a vital pillar of New York's economy, contributing at least $7.8 billion to the city's budget for the fiscal year 2026.
