Lynn Martin, President of NYSE Group, appeared on Bloomberg Television in October 2026 to discuss the trading debut of Skydance Corp. on the New York Stock Exchange. She described the listing as an honor and attributed the state of the IPO market to macroeconomic conditions, including interest rate changes, while noting that the market remains open and that companies make individual decisions about valuations. She also addressed competition for listings in Texas and expressed support for recent SEC regulatory efforts, including semiannual reporting and an on-ramp for companies, which she said were developed in dialogue with the agency. In September 2026, Martin testified before the House Financial Services Committee, where she stated that the number of U.S.-listed public companies has fallen by roughly 40% over three decades and described this as a matter of economic fairness. She cited record global IPO proceeds of $178 billion in the first half of 2026 and highlighted NYSE initiatives, including a tokenized platform linking digital equities to underlying shares. During the hearing, she was questioned by Rep. Al Green about the $TRUMP meme coin and Ponzi schemes; Martin said she did not believe Ponzi schemes operate in accordance with the law but declined to comment on specific legal aspects. She also discussed the exchange's participation in Project Glasswing, a cybersecurity initiative, and described regulators as working in partnership with the NYSE on system resilience.
