ANDERSON COOPER, CNN: Breaking news to tell you about in just minutes before the opening bell of Wall Street, a sharp selloff in pre-market trading after Tuesday's dramatic 800-point plunge. Joining me live is Kaitlan Collins, and at the White House, also Alison Kosik at the New York Stock Exchange. Alison, let's first go to you, what's going on? What's behind the selloff?</s>ALISON KOSIK, CNN BUSINESS CORRESPONDENT: Anderson, you know, the market right now, the market sentiment is so fragile that just news of an arrest is going to set off a wave of selling when the bell opens, when the bell rings in about one minute. The arrest I'm talking about is the chief financial officer of Huawei, that's the Chinese tech giant that makes up more -- that sells actually more Apple iPhones, that sells more -- sorry, I'm hearing myself. That sells more smartphones than Apple does. The chief financial officer was arrested in Canada at the request of the United States. And the way investors and analysts feel at this point is that the timing of that arrest seems very political, and it seems -- it seems political, and it seems like it's just going to be escalating the China-U.S. trade war. Anderson?</s>COOPER: So the opening bell should be any moment now. We'll see what happens. I also want to go to our Kaitlan Collins who is standing by at the White House. Kaitlan, any response from the White House of what we've been watching in the markets?</s>KAITLAN COLLINS, CNN WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: Well, they haven't responded so far to the latest news about this arrest, but we know that this chief financial officer was arrested in Canada at the request of the United States.
