First Lady of the United States Melania Trump rang the opening bell Monday morning at the New York Stock Exchange.
The bell ceremony is an iconic tradition that spans well over a century.
Trump was in New York City, as her husband President Trump is set to deliver an address this week at the annual United Nations General Assembly.
