The US markets ended on a positive note after some volatile action following the Fed's decision to interest rates unchanged. A drop in oil prices and modestly encouraging economic reports helped prop up the market.

In stock specific moves, Oracle shares rose 1.5% after it beat earnings and sales forecasts as new software-license revenue climbed 27%.

However, Countrywide Financial closed 1.7% lower as shareholders approved the takeover by Bank of America.

The Dow Jones industrial average advanced 4.40 points, or 0.04%, to 11,811.83. The Standard & Poor's 500 index gained 7.68 points, or 0.58%, to 1,321.97, and the Nasdaq composite index was up 32.98 points, or 1.39%, to 2,401.26.
