What the record shows

Every figure on these pages is measured on the Nasdaq 100 from the site's own record, and is a count of what happened rather than a forecast of what will. Releases that printed in the same minute as another report here are left out of these cross-release figures; the page on shared minutes is the one that looks at them.
