It's been a brutal morning for stocks. China and Japan were closed, but the rest of Asia saw plenty of carnage which then translated into big falls for Europe.
U.S. stock index futures are pointing to a particularly ugly open that could take major indexes toward two-year lows. S&P 500 futures are down more than 31 points, or 1.7%, while Dow futures are off around 270 points.
Treasury bond prices are jumping, sending yields down hard. The 10-year yield has come off lows burt remains down more than 8 basis points at 1.5928%--not so far away from all-time lows in the mid 1.40s set back in mid-2012.
The yen soared and gold is up more than 3.6%, or $42 dollars, as the scramble for safety continues.
