LONDON (MarketWatch) -- U.S. stocks futures slumped on Thursday, with investors worried the carnage from the previous day's roller-coaster session will continue. A hefty lineup of Federal Reserve speakers, and earnings from prominent companies such as Goldman Sachs Group Inc., could steer the market.
Futures for the S&P 500 index (SPZ4) dropped 25 points, or 1.4%, to 1,821.70, while those for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJZ4) lost 161 points, or 1%, to 15,846. Futures for the Nasdaq-100 index (NDZ4) fell 52.75 points, or 1.4%, to 3,699.25.
The weakness came after U.S. stock benchmarks flirted with their worst daily decline in more than three years on Wednesday, although they trimmed losses before the final bell. Read: Here's what drove the market meltdown
