Fed Announces Interest Rate Decision: Policy Rate Unchanged

The Fed's decision to keep interest rates unchanged aligns with market expectations, so it is not expected to trigger a sudden directional change in the DXY. Technical indicators show the RSI at 55.9, in neutral territory, while the MACD remains just below the signal line, offering no clear short-term momentum signal. The price is trading above both the 20-day and 50-day moving averages, but upward momentum is limited. Therefore, the index is likely to trade sideways around current levels.

The Federal Reserve's decision to keep interest rates unchanged aligns with market expectations, so it may not create a surprise effect in the short term. On the S&P 500 (SPX), the RSI at 63 is in neutral territory, while the MACD indicates positive momentum above the signal line. The price is trading above the 20-day and 50-day moving averages, but a sideways trend may follow the recent close. As the impact of the news is expected to be limited, the index is likely to maintain its current technical structure.

The Fed's decision to keep interest rates unchanged was in line with market expectations, thus having no short-term surprise effect. On the NDX, the RSI at 71 indicates overbought territory, while the MACD above its signal line suggests continued upward momentum. The price trading above the 20- and 50-day moving averages confirms a positive overall trend. However, the 2.1% rise in the last 24 hours and the overbought signal increase the likelihood of some profit-taking or sideways movement in the short term. Therefore, maintaining a neutral stance rather than a clear directional bias appears more appropriate.

Although the Fed's decision to hold interest rates steady was in line with market expectations, GLD's technical indicators already present a weak outlook. The RSI is approaching the neutral zone at 44, while the MACD remains below the signal line and in negative territory. The price is trading below the 20- and 50-day moving averages and has lost 1.4% in the last 24 hours. Following the interest rate decision, a continued short-term decline in gold prices appears likely.
