European equity close: Solid gains ahead of the Fed decision

On the day:

• STOXX 600 +0.7%
• German DAX +0.5%
• Francis CAC +0.6%
• UK’s FTSE 100 +0.5%
• Spain’s IBEX +1.1%
• Italy’s FTSE MIB +0.6%

Those are some decent gains, though I would have liked to have seen a better finish as a good portion of the gains evaporated late.
