There is a ton of information in the new Reuters/Ipsos poll.
but to me the biggest news is that among independents, Trump has 38% approval and 58% disapproval.
It's on page 8 of this very interesting slideshow. It also shows among all adults, Trump has 41% approve and 57% disapprove.

a number they aren't familiar with.

The latter will be some very motivated voters (includes 8% of self-identified Republicans AND 41% Independents!).
