1. Volatile futures: U.S. stock futures have suffered wild swings ahead of the open on Tuesday.
Investors, brace for more volatility.
Dow futures were down 100 points -- 0.3% -- at 7:25 a.m. ET. They had dropped over 800 points overnight before rebounding into positive territory in the early morning hours.
S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures also swung between gains and losses.
The Dow ended Monday with a drop of 4.6%, or 1,175 points. At one point during the trading day the Dow had fallen by nearly 1,600 points. The S&P 500 shed 4.1% and the Nasdaq fell 3.8%.
The shock decline was nowhere close to the scale of destruction seen on Black Monday in 1987 or the financial crisis of 2008. But for investors lulled to sleep by the steady upward climb since Election Day in 2016, it was alarming.
"This is a rather abrupt reminder of what volatility looks like. Nothing has changed in economic terms," said Paul Donovan, global chief economist at UBS Wealth Management.
The CNNMoney Fear & Greed index has swung into the "extreme fear" zone.

The company didn't say how Potdevin, who has been CEO since 2014, fell short of its standards.
