Thanks @Tiptopptrader @Cy McCaffrey for the morning movers. Looks like MTCH finally hit a top. Watching MEET.
lol @Gil Oren you are right! as much as i want to say that i've been busy with work and other things i would be lying ... truth be told i've been out playing pokemon go pretty much all day!
I got AAPL puts and VIX calls a few hours ago just in case. AAPL was nice but so outside the BB I just had to take a shot at 104... not to mention it stopped right at a trend line.

Seems like the FED is pretty an non event. Gold and bonds are higher but interestingly utilities are still lagging. Now I am going back to play Pokemon Go
Why the Federal Reserve kept interest rates pegged at zero when economic numbers have shown a marginal improvement is beyond me. If the Fed were truly data dependent as they claim they are, they would of raise interest rate to 0.25% (0.35% effective rate). Clearly, data dependency is just another excuse to keep pushing more of the same. European banks have had the luxury of parking money with the Fed for a small interest. All this does is keep the floating value of the US Dollar higher, the opposite of one the effects the Fed is trying to counteract by keeping interest rates at zero. Its nuts. Interest rates have been kept at zero for over 7 years! How anyone can label this an economic recovery when the demand for money, and by extension, the risk people are willing to take to invest is zero is beyond me. So the Fed is supposed to remain on hold for ever? If interest rates in the biggest economy in the world cannot be raised and maintained to just 1%, below the growth of YoY money supply, then what hope is there that demand will ever come back? I know your supposed to trade the market you have and let the rest be, but how can anyone sit idle when what are seeing is the lives of our children being sold for instant gratification. I cannot imagine what the next 7 years hold if the last 7 have served as ay guide. What I think most don't realize is that this type of policy coordination is a direct shot at the arm to everyone. They are going after everyone. I Who at the Fed will grow a pair and do what is right for once? Just once.
