{quote} a few of you here today are just doing the wrong thing in the wake of FOMC..... even though there is always room for longs and shorts from any price, sometimes timing is really really important... FOMC changed the long standing interest ratios yesterday, as a result money will start flowing in a controlled way as large amounts try to shift without upsetting the market, so going against that just a few hours later is likely to hurt... everything has reacted as it should: oil is down, equities are up, AU EU GU are down UJ is up gold is down...
even the relative performance DAX vs S&P fits the story
