As a rule, I try not to read too terribly much into a "Fed Day" as there is usually a big batch of volatility that may or may not mean much of anything come the dawn of the next day.

San Jose Mercury News, Calif., Mike Cassidy column: Silicon Valley's Catholic community finds higher power in solar power
