Anyone who bought technology stocks on the dip last Friday and Monday is feeling unhappy today. And that spells a worried market. Especially since key stocks in the sector such as Apple (AAPL) and Amazon (AMZN) are showing signs of breaking through important support. The NASDAQ Composite Index is off 0.93% today as of 12:30 p.m. New York time.

No surprises on interest rates. A mild surprise on reducing the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet. As expected–the Fed Funds Futures market was giving odds of 99.6% that there would be a 25 basis point interest rate increase–the Federal Reserve raised interest rates for the second time in 2017 and for the third time in six months. The 25 basis point increase took the federal funds rate to 1.00% to 1.25%.

The market is more anxious today but it doesn’t seem anywhere near panic country. The CBOE S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX), was up another 10% today (10.75% as of 1:30 to be exact) on top of a greater than 10% gain on Friday, but that’s a relatively restrained move considering that what is known as the “fear” index has been trading near record lows and that this index can tack on moves of 30% to 40% in a day when investors get really fearful.
