U.S. markets swung higher Wednesday, with investors holding onto gains after the Federal Reserve said it would keep its monetary policy intact. Investors ignored uncertainly about the $13 billion international bailout offered to Cyprus. Lawmakers in Cyprus overwhelmingly rejected the plan to tax bank deposits as part of the deal worked out in Brussels.

Ten-year U.S. treasury bonds fell 15/32 to yield 1.963 percent. Against the dollar, the euro was at $1.2935 from Tuesday's $1.2883. Against the yen, the dollar was higher at 96 yen from 95.17 yen.
