BILL HEMMER, CNN ANCHOR: In news about your money, the markets will open in about 25 minutes time and investors will be watching to see if the tech stocks continue their tumble again today. Yesterday, the Nasdaq experienced its second-largest point drop ever. CNNfn's Sasha Salama live from the Nasdaq marketsite there in Times Square with more on a precursor here. It could get ugly again today, hey Sasha?</s>SASHA SALAMA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: It could, Bill. I wish I had better news for the bulls out there, but at this point in the morning, Nasdaq 100 futures, which we look for -- look toward for an indication of how the market will open, they have turned sharply lower in just the last half hour or so. So if that holds for the next 20 minutes, as you said, till the market opens, we could see some more declines following that bruising sell-off yesterday. One potential bright spot, though, some analysts said that the volume, which was quite light yesterday, could pick up and could balance things out here a bit. So we'll be watching that. Also, keep an eye on shares of Biogen, BGEN, the biotech giant that is, perhaps, best known for its multiple sclerosis drug Avonex. Shares, as you can see over my shoulder, are down 13 percent in the pre-market. That's because the company came out after the close yesterday with earning of 41 cents a share. But the expectations game again: That was 2 cents shy of what Wall Street had expected. So the stock is taking a big hit in the pre-market. Bill, back to you.</s>HEMMER: Sasha, thank you. We'll be in touch. Search CNN.com CNNSI.com CNNmoney.com The Web
