The Swiss franc declined against its most major counterparts in
the New York session on Monday, as investors awaited an expected
interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve later this week.
The Fed is expected to lower interest rates by 25 basis points
when it concludes its meeting on Wednesday.
U.S. reports on retail sales, GDP, PCE, existing home sales and
consumer sentiment are also scheduled this week.
The Fed is likely to signal that rate cuts will continue,
although there is uncertainty about easing path through 2025.
Data from the Federal Statistical Office said the producer and
import prices in Switzerland dropped by 0.6 percent month-on-month
in November, declining for the third straight month, following a
0.3 percent drop in September.
Producer and import prices decreased by 1.5 percent year-on-year
in November, easing from a 1.8 percent drop in the previous
month.
The franc fell to more than a 3-week low of 0.8948 against the
greenback and a 4-day low of 1.1349 against the pound, from an
early 4-day high of 0.8898 and a 5-day high of 1.1251,
respectively. The currency is seen finding support around 0.91
against the greenback and 1.16 against the pound.
The franc touched 0.9399 against the euro, its lowest level
since November 8. The next possible support for the franc is seen
around the 0.95 level.
In contrast, the franc rose to a 4-day high of 172.89 against
the yen. Immediate resistance for the currency is seen around the
174.00 level.
