How to read this map

Currency cross-rates show local-currency units per U.S. dollar, calculated from the same ECB euro reference snapshot. The U.S. card leads with a dated S&P500 index close and shows USD per EUR beneath. Pins locate financial centers; currency references are not exchange-specific prices.

Choose a region with the arrow keys, then use the Market selector. Policy settings and equity-index levels retain their own dates. Shading shows the selected region, not market performance.
