Wells Fargo's Asset Cap Lifted by Fed, Paving Way for Growth
Wells Fargo & Co. finally escaped a Federal Reserve asset cap that has restricted its size for more than seven years, unleashing the firm from the unprecedented punishment in a major win for Chief Executive Officer Charlie Scharf.
The Fed said in a statement Tuesday that Wells Fargo met all conditions required by an enforcement action imposed on the bank in 2018 to remove the restriction. The central bank completed its review of Wells Fargo's remediation efforts and third-party assessments, as well as its own assessment of the bank's corporate governance and risk management programs, it said.

Snag the Roku Ultra 4K Streaming Device for a Near Record Low Price
Whether you're ready to binge some new shows or you're focused on baseball season, these days the options for streaming to your TV seem nearly endless. Roku is a tried and true brand and the maker of some of our favorite streaming devices. Roku offers a number of products, but right now you can pick up the 2024 Roku Ultra for just $1 more than the lowest price we've seen. Currently down to just $80 on Amazon, that saves you $20 on this remote and streaming box combo. The Roku Ultra is at the top end of Roku's lineup and has all the features you're likely to need from a streaming device. Those features include support for 4K streaming, not to mention HDR with Dolby Vision. There's also support for Dolby Atmos for those with compatible audio systems. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. That isn't all. This Roku Ultra comes with a rechargeable Roku Voice Remote Pro which does more than let you control what you're watching. Plug in the included earbuds to watch your favorite shows without disturbing others, making the Roku Ultra the perfect solution for late-night bedroom TV viewing. The remote also includes quick-launch buttons for popular streaming services like Netflix, Apple TV Plus, Prime Video and Paramount Plus. This deal is unlikely to stick around for long -- be sure to factor that into your buying decision before the price goes back up. Why this deal matters Regularly priced at $100, saving 20% on the cost of this combo streaming device is a decent savings. In his review of the Roku Ultra, editor Ty Pendlebury noted that this version has some upgrades over the previous model, most of them focused on the remote. At full price he found it a bit spendy, but at $80 it becomes much more of a contender. Last year during Black Friday sales, we saw the price dip to $79 -- a record low. If you don't want to wait it out to save a dollar, now is as good a time as any to upgrade. Looking for new content to enjoy on your new Roku Ultra?

Apple Releases Its Most Comfortable Products Ahead of WWDC 2025: New Merch!
WWDC 2025, Apple's annual developer conference, kicks off in just a matter of hours with a keynote at 10 a.m. PT on Monday, June 9. But before Apple CEO, Tim Cook, takes his first step onstage at Apple Park, the company has dropped a bunch of new limited edition merchandise as documented by a number of people on social media. One of the quieter yearly rituals for WWDC is the release of Apple branded clothing and souvenirs. The Apple Park visitor center has an Apple Store that usually has a number of limited edition shirts, hoodies and more that WWDC attendees can buy. This year's offerings feature riffs on Apple's original rainbow logo on a black or white hoodie that truly makes it pop. There's another version of the logo with the word Apple written in the Apple Garamond font which you don't need to be a font nerd to appreciate. Seeing the company embrace its past for Apple enthusiasts and developers is exciting, especially ahead of one of the more significant WWDC keynotes. There is a lot at stake for the iPhone maker. Analysts question Apple's progress with Apple Intelligence. The US Department of Justice and 16 state and district attorneys general have a suit against Apple alleging that the company locked iPhone owners into its ecosystem through monopolistic practices. And President Donald Trump has threatened a 25% tariff on the iPhone if Apple doesn't move iPhone manufacturing to the US. Aside from WWDC 2025 merch, we expect to see previews of the next generation of iPhone, Mac and Apple Watch software (and more). Rumors point to Apple changing how it names the software. Instead of iOS 19 and WatchOS 12, we'll likely get year-centric names like iOS 26 and WatchOS 26. Also the company is expected to bring an unifying visual overhaul to all of its OSes that is inspired in part from VisionOS, as reported by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. CNET has editors and writers attending WWDC 2025 in-person to report on developments as they break.
