Tableau Software (DATA) stumbled Thursday after competitor Oracle (ORCL) reported a drop in sales and lowered its revenue outlook.

Shortly after the announcement, stocks turned negative, before soaring to above 1%, then closing modestly lower. The central bank left the Fed funds rate near zero in what was one of the most widely-anticipated Fed meetings in years.

Interest rates will likely close out the year at 0.40%, according to the Fed’s dot plot forecast.
