Dear Dave,
Looks like institutions answered you: "BREAKOUT"! Look at the intraday chart of SPY: What happened at around 3pm EDT? That's when the breakout of today's highs resulted in the SPY doubling its gains from earlier in the day.

Steven,
Buyers got serious after Fed comments. On a Fed announcement day it is typical for traders to wait and see until they hear.
