Good morning 🌤️ Having a bad day? It could be worse. UK regulators fined Citigroup ~$79 million after one of their experienced traders made an "inputting error" that led to an order to sell $444 billion in stocks instead of $58 million. On that note, we’re officially hiring an editor (okay, not really; we can’t afford you yet, but soon.)
Have a good week!

🇰🇪 🤝🏾 🇺🇸 Ruto running routes.
For the first time in over 15 years, an African president visited Washington, D.C., as U.S. President Biden hosted Kenya's President Ruto at the White House, and all the chefs in D.C. were under strict instructions to skimp on the sauce for a few days.
