No news is usually good news when it comes to the Federal Reserve's interest rate decisions, and no news was exactly what the market received today. The Federal Reserve voted 10-2 to hold its benchmark interest rate steady at 3.75%-4%. This was widely expected, with prediction markets putting the odds of a hold at over 90%. The outcome was such a foregone conclusion that markets reacted with a yawn. The S&P 500 Index rose less than 0.5% in the wake of the announcement, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq Composite were up by smaller amounts. The yield on the 10-year Treasury bond increased by about 1%.
