Lazlo Birinyi's TICKER SENSE......

Birinyi's Ticker Sense (note I have it linked on this blog under Lazlo Birinyi) submits: As of 2:55 PM today, the 70 basis point gain in the S&P 500 ranks as the third most positive market performance on a Fed day since the tightening cycle began in June 2004. However, we also looked at the S&P 500 return in the one week following Fed days. 71% of the time the market's direction in the one week period after the Fed day is the opposite of the direction it takes on the day of the announcement.
