CHF Mid-day Analysis

The loss of safe-haven support has kept the Swiss Franc on the defensive this week, but a positive tonefrom recent Swiss economic data may be keeping further losses in check this morning. With carryover pressurecoming from the Euro zone this morning, however, the Swiss Franc may have to rely on a negative reception forthis morning’s US data in order to recover from early pressure. The December Swiss could slide down towardsthe 110.62 level during today’s trading, and still looks fairly vulnerable to a sizable downside move over the nextfew sessions.
