I won't have to tell much about the markets reaction on FOMC future rate cut news.

Investors were perhaps pricing in even more optimism than that single reduction in rates. Just a day ago, investors were betting on an 81.6% chance of the Fed lowering rates by another 25 basis points in January.
Fed Chair Jerome Powell squashed that hope.

It’s this massive paradigm shift — from hopes that the Fed will go full throttle with cuts to the reality that it might even lift its foot off the accelerator – that is sending tremors through the markets.

Today expiration of Stocks/Options/Futures. Quadruple witching called.

Hard to tell if US markets will go for a new ATH run before the end of the Year, from this rather bearish point.

There are Wk TPO GAPs to fill above current price levels in all 3 indexes/markets.

Once the prices get above the lower Weekly TPO distribution peaks, there is a chance these GAPs gone be filled.
