Reuters reported on October 30 that Intel shares plunged 23% after the close. In the same story, Nasdaq 100 futures were down 1.9%. The 23% is one company's after-hours share price. The 1.9% is a futures quote on the Nasdaq 100.

The futures quote is the smaller percentage

Reuters wrote that the after-hours plunge in Intel, and a drop in Amazon shares, drove Nasdaq 100 futures down 1.9%. On that same page, the quote table does not match the story's percent for Amazon, so Amazon's percent is left out. Intel's 23% stays. It is the after-hours figure in the story, and it is larger than the futures figure beside it.

| Print | Move | What it measures | | --- | --- | --- | | Intel | 23% after hours | One company's shares | | Nasdaq 100 futures | Down 1.9% | Futures on the index |

The story does not say how many points of the futures move belonged to Intel. The two percentages still sit on different rows. The share's row is the larger one.
