Caution Over Price Fluctuations in the Swiss Franc, Which Is at Its Weakest in Asian Trading Hours?

07.07.2023

Today's Highlights
  1. U.S. Employment Report
  2. Canada: Employment Statistics

In the U.S. currency market yesterday, the U.S. dollar fell against the euro despite the U.S. June ISM Non-Manufacturing Index, released yesterday, coming in higher than expected at 53.9, up from 50.3 the previous month. The euro rose by just over 60 pips against the dollar, from 1.0833 to 1.0900.The pair had been locked in a battle around the daily 20-day moving average (MA), but yesterday’s rally pushed it above that level. With the U.S. jobs report scheduled for release today during U.S. trading hours, traders should be on alert for sharp price fluctuations during that time.

Among European currencies, the Swiss franc—which is set to release its unemployment rate today—traded in a narrow range against the yen. The CHF/JPY pair rose from 159.968 to 160.957.It rebounded by just under 100 pips. However, a general trend of yen buying has been observed during today’s Asian session, and combined with the fact that the Japanese yen is the strongest and the Swiss franc is the weakest, the CHF/JPY pair is currently seeing a decline. It is currently trading around 160.463, and we will be watching closely to see if the franc’s downward trend continues during the European session.

Today’s schedule includes the Swiss unemployment rate at 14:45, German industrial production and UK Halifax house prices at 15:00, and the Frenchtrade balance and current account balance, at 21:00 remarks by German Bundesbank President Nagel, at 21:30 Canadian and U.S. employment reports, at 23:00 the Canadian Ivey Purchasing Managers’ Index, at 23:30 remarks by UKremarks by MPC member Mann and U.S. weekly natural gas inventories; at 24:30, remarks by U.S. Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago President Goolsbee; and at 25:45, remarks by ECB President Lagarde. Investors should remain vigilant regarding price fluctuations in the Swiss franc, which is currently the weakest currency in Asian trading hours.
