Why a quiet Fed may be one of the best things that could happen to stocks (via TradingNation)

It appears the Federal Reserve just did one of the best things it could for stocks: doing nothing.

Hickey wrote in a recent research note that "the market loves a Fed on hold," and he uses this chart to illustrate the pattern: In situations when the Fed shifts rates in either direction, the S&P 500 typically falls in the four weeks after a decision. Even a rate cut is little guarantee it will set the stage for market gains, according to Hickey.
