A WALL STREET JOURNAL ONLINE NEWS ROUNDUP

U.S. stocks looked set to enter a bear market Tuesday, with stock futures pointing to losses of roughly 5% after two days of relentless selling pressure in overseas markets on fears over a U.S. recession.

Less than two hours before the start of trading, Dow Jones Industrial Average futures dropped 516 to 11590. The S&P 500 futures sank 63.8 to 1261.5, and Nasdaq 100 futures fell 77.25 to 1772.25. Changes in futures do not always accurately predict early market moves after the opening bell.

For the best coverage of the global recession I suggest the Financial Times, the Wall Street Journal, and Bloomberg for up to date information and accurate analysis.
