CHF Mid-day Analysis

While today’s gains may be modest at best, the Swiss Franc has recovered from Tuesday’s downsidebreakout by climbing back above the key 109.51 price level this morning. A sharp jump in the Swiss ZEW surveymay be helping to extend this rebound, but the Swiss Franc remains vulnerable to another swift pullback if andwhen a US debt deal shows signs of completion. The December Swiss may rise up towards the 109.87 level latertoday, but will have limited upside potential as long as the market remains optimistic that US politicians can gettheir act together.
