It’s Friday after a big post-Fed rally–time for some profit taking
Just enough bad news today to put an end to this week’s post-Fed meeting rally. As of 3:30 p.m. New York time, the Standard & Poor’s 500 was still up 1.3% for the week. But the index is down 0.48% today. Oil is off even more with West Texas Intermediate slinking 3.04%

Yesterday, the Fed not only didn’t raise interest rates at its September meeting (a December increase gets odds of about 60%), but it also pointed toward interest rates rising more slowly in 2017 than projected in June.

The Bank of Japan threw the country’s financial sector a bone today–not much more than that certainly. At its regular monetary policy meeting the Japanese central bank said it would keep its short-term policy rate at a negative 0.1% while working to keep the yield on the 10-year government bond near 0%

Analysts are expecting a jump in oil inventories in the United States of 2.8 million barrels for the week ended on September 16. On the other hand, they’re expecting that gasoline inventories will show a 500,000 barrel decline
