Which line actually moved it

Each row above is measured from its own instant — the price immediately before that specific headline crossed — so the rows can be compared directly. The largest single reaction, -32.18%, belongs to the 12:00 UTC line. By the time the 12:03 UTC line arrived, the measured response was -23.08% — the marginal information in each successive headline decays fast, and the decay is measurable.

Did the first read hold?

It did. By the close of that session, Quanterix stood at -39.95% against the prior close — the same direction the first fifteen minutes priced. The instant read and the considered read agreed.

Nothing exotic here — a miss, priced as one. What the measurement adds is the speed: the gap between the print instant and the fifteen-minute mark is how long a reader of the headline had before the information was fully in the price.

How these numbers were measured

We record the price of the instrument immediately before each headline crosses our tape, then again one minute and fifteen minutes later, together with traded volume against that instrument's own normal. Every figure on this page comes from those recordings — the timestamps are the actual instants the lines crossed. Nothing here is an estimate, a close-to-close change, or a model's guess. The method, the gates every page must pass, and how we correct errors are documented in our editorial standards.

How did Quanterix stock react to its Q2 2026 earnings?

Measured from the instant the first headline crossed on 10 August 2026 at 12:00 UTC, Quanterix moved from $4.04 to $2.74 over the following fifteen minutes — -32.18%. The measurement starts at the print itself, not at the open, so it isolates the report's own effect.

How fast was the report priced in?

One minute after the print the measured move was -13.12%; at fifteen minutes it was -32.18%. The gap between those two figures is the pricing-in window — how long the market took to finish reading.

Which headline moved Quanterix the most?

The 12:00 UTC line carried the largest measured reaction of the sequence at -32.18%. Later lines measured progressively less — repeat information decays within minutes.
