The announcement, and the market’s answer.
Apple issued a press release, carried via PR Newswire, on Jul 7, 2025. It was one of 2 Apple headlines News Quantified labeled that day, so its measurement window overlaps with the others on a shared tape. The same session also carried Apple's "Drive Stories Launches on Kickstarter: An AI-Powered Location-Based…", each measured on its own clock.
Against the price at the news timestamp, AAPL moved +0.18% after five minutes and -1.03% by the close — about 3.7× Apple's median close-day move of -0.28% across 2,000+ events. Because several releases shared that day, their measurement windows overlap and no single headline cleanly owns the move.

How the numbers are made.
How was AAPL's +0.18% reaction measured?
From the news timestamp, not the trading day: News Quantified takes the last trade before this press release as the base price and measures the move five minutes of trading later — point-in-time, zero look-ahead. The same clock produced the -1.03% to-close figure.
What is Apple's median reaction, and how does this event compare?
Apple's median is drawn from 2,000+ labeled events; at 30 minutes it sits at +0.16%, and -0.28% by the close. This event's move is one draw from that distribution — ordinary or outlier, the chart's median ticks show which.
2 Apple headlines shared Jul 7, 2025. Whose reaction is this?
Each of the 2 same-day Apple events is measured from its own timestamp, but their windows overlap on one tape, so we show the cluster rather than pretending a single headline owns the move.
Does -1.03% predict Apple's next reaction?
No. -1.03% is a realized fact about Jul 7, 2025, not a forecast. Past reactions describe a distribution; they say nothing certain about any future move.
