How BAC reacted

Reaction is being measured.

This event is recent. News Quantified labels the realized price reaction once the trading sessions after the news complete — point-in-time, with zero look-ahead. The measured move will appear here, and below in BAC’s reaction history.

Which window

BAC’s news landed in the pre-market window; the main session closed -0.44%.

When it landed
  1. Mainprior session
  2. After-hours4:00 – 8:00 PM
  3. Overnightno tape
  4. Pre-market4:00 – 9:30 AM
  5. Main session9:30 AM – 4:00 PM

Segment widths are fixed, so two events on different days sit in comparable places. Hatched segments are real elapsed time with no tape to measure — the overnight halt is not a gap in the data. This event carries no intraday receipt time, so it is not pinned to a minute.

The main-session result is measured upstream against the price at the news; the all-sessions result is computed here from its own anchor and close, so the two can differ in the last decimal. After-hours and pre-market are measured upstream but populate on a small minority of events, so this page does not request them. Those rows are unmeasured, not empty.

What happened

Where this BAC event came from, and what the tape did with it.

Bank of America filed Form 8-K with the SEC on Oct 14, 2026. It was one of 2 Bank of America headlines News Quantified labeled that day, so its measurement window overlaps with the others on a shared tape. The same session also carried Bank of America's "Bank of America Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results", each measured on its own clock.

Against the price at the news timestamp, BAC's reaction is still being measured. Because several releases shared that day, their measurement windows overlap and no single headline cleanly owns the move.

Method

How the numbers are made.

How was BAC's 5-minute reaction measured?

From the news timestamp, not the trading day: News Quantified takes the last trade before this SEC filing (Form 8-K) as the base price and measures the move five minutes of trading later — point-in-time, zero look-ahead. The same clock produced the to-close figure.

What is Bank of America's median reaction, and how does this event compare?

Bank of America's median is drawn from 2,000+ labeled events; at 30 minutes it sits at +0.04%, and -0.10% by the close. This event's move is one draw from that distribution — ordinary or outlier, the chart's median ticks show which.

2 Bank of America headlines shared Oct 14, 2026. Whose reaction is this?

Each of the 2 same-day Bank of America 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 a measured reaction predict Bank of America's next reaction?

No. a measured reaction is a realized fact about Oct 14, 2026, not a forecast. Past reactions describe a distribution; they say nothing certain about any future move.
