DAVID HAFFENREFFER, CNN ANCHOR: A live shot there of the Nasdaq marketsite on this day after the Nasdaq dropped 2.9 percent. At this point, we do have Nasdaq 100 futures lower by 80 points, and that could portend a lower open for us this morning. We're going to head on over to the Nasdaq marketsite now where Sasha Salama is standing by with a preview for us today. And Sasha, at this point, it doesn't look so hot.</s>SASHA SALAMA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: No, it's a gloomy day weatherwise, David, and it is gloomy in the futures markets as well. As you mentioned, Nasdaq-100 futures down sharply; the limit, by the way, is 110 points. And even though the futures are off their lows, they had been down as low as 99 points, they are still pointing to a sharply lower open. Add to this that volume has been thin lately. That's the main reason that we see the volatility in the futures market, as well as regular trading day. And we've seen lots of light-volume days again this week, so we are expecting that again today. A couple of stocks that are moving in the pre-market include Sycamore. Even though it turned in its first profitable quarter ever as a public company SCMR is actually down more than two in the pre- market right around 90. Sycamore, which is the optical communications company, coming in with seven cents a share; that was one cent better than Wall Street expectations. And there you see, since the beginning of the year, the stock is actually down 10 percent. This company went public last fall. We've also got ADC Telecomm. moving in the pre-market; it's up about 1 1/2, ADCT. This time, the company is moving up, and the company actually did better than expectations. ADC coming in with 29 cents, three cents better. The chairman and CEO is retiring from those posts after being in them for nine years -- David.</s>HAFFENREFFER: All right, thank you very much, Sasha.
