A powerful image for history: Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky, face-to-face in a grand hall, deep in talks, a moment capturing the delicate balance between the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia. Of course, it’s clear this photo also serves as a carefully planned PR move and we see that too.

• S&P 500: -6.7%
• Dow Jones: -5.8%
