What this dated Russell 2000 record means

For Russell 2000, local trading hours and the observation timestamp control the description. A pre-open latest close is historical; an intraday value remains unfinished until the closing process. Historical market coverage should show what was known then. This Russell 2000 reconstruction adds explanation and sourcing while leaving the original headline and publication date intact.

Why the observation mattered

The Russell 2000 is a widely used reference for smaller U.S. companies and can behave differently from indexes dominated by large companies. The archived Russell 2000 reading remains useful only with its limitations visible. Replacing it silently with today’s quote would erase the factual record and misstate the article’s age.
