Gold vs the S&P Post Fed Meeting

On Wednesday, The Fed announced it would not be raising rates. Bonds, Stocks, Gold, and Silver all rallied on the news. However, compared to the past, the Fed's intended effect did not last as long as they'd like. Similar to an addict building up a resistance, the stock market gave back almost all of its gains within 5 days, and is jonesing for something more powerful.

Meanwhile, Gold has held onto its gains, actually adding to them as the S&P starting to give its own back.

Performance since Wed 2PM

  • S&P 500 2143 to 2150= 7.00 points = 0.3% gain

  • Gold $1330 to $1344= $14.00= 1% gain
