You've got that backwards - a rate hike has a downward impact on equities, because they are priced in dollars.

Yes, it looks like my observations were a little off.

What looks more accurate is Fed teases rate hike, market plunges for un-related reasons, so Fed doesn't go through with the rate hike... and the cycle repeats.
