Why is the stock market climbing ever since Walsh increased rates?

My guess is because:

25bps don't change a lot soon

It signals that the FED is serious about inflation

It shows that the FED is still independent

Walsh said that the economy is strong (he knows better than 99% of retail investors)

Anything else, or was it just a 3 day pop?
