So, the Fed knows it needs to meet the market consensus and it did.  A positive interaction between the two ...........................

BTW, the last hurdle was cleared on the way for Santa rally, and the market is likely to go higher from here into the holiday week.  Again, dip buyers got rewarded  ...............................

 

By the end of the day SPX developed a breakout from the shoulder line of the inverted H&S pattern on the hourly chart, and it's likely to go much higher on this breakout before the end of the year.  And I maintain my prediction for new highs soon....................

 

An inverted H&S pattern on ES chart as well with 120 min chart ...............................

 

I see the early dip from some profit taking will be bought later in the day, just like last Friday ......................
