U.S. stock index futures fell sharply after a Republican proposal for averting the "fiscal cliff" failed to muster enough support on Thursday, raising concerns lawmakers won't be able to come to a deal, putting the world's largest economy at risk of recession.

S&P 500 E-Mini stock futures plunged on the news in a matter of seconds - falling as much as 3.6 percent in a mini "flash crash" that even caused a halt in trading of one March E-Mini futures contract because of the sharp move.

The market rebounded from there, but futures were still down 1.5 percent by 0400 GMT Friday. Dow Jones stock futures dropped 1.6 percent and Nasdaq futures were down 1.5 percent.
