Summary

CNBC’s Eamon Javers reports on President Biden’s first summit meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the ground in Switzerland. The three hour meeting likely covered cyber hacks, human rights, nuclear weapons, and election interference, but The New York Times columnist Tom Friedman says, Putin is like America’s “ex-boyfriend from hell.” Plus, investors are poised for a milestone Fed meeting, employees are poised to return to the office in full force, and former Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes is poised for trial.
