As indicated in futures trading, U.S. stocks fell sharply early Monday with the Dow down more than 350 points, or over 3%, in recent trading. The decline follows a global sell-off as international markets reacted violently to S&P's Friday evening downgrade, which prompted a flight from so-called 'risk' assets:
  • Oil futures are sharply lower, recently trading just above $83 per barrel, while gold surged to a new record above $1700 per ounce.
  • In Europe, the FTSE and DAX are trading down 1.5% and 2.4%, respectively.
  • Asian markets tumbled overnight with Japan's Nikkei 225 and Hong Kong's Hang Seng each falling 2.2% while China's Shanghai Composite shed 3.8%.
  • Middle Eastern markets tumbled overnight Sunday, with Israel's benchmark TA-25 index falling 7%, its worst drop since October 2000.
