The USD/CHF pair struggles to capitalize on its gains recorded over the past two days and oscillates in a narrow trading band through the Asian session on Thursday. Spot prices currently trade below the 0.9100 mark, with bulls still awaiting a sustained move beyond a technically significant 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) before placing fresh bets.
The prevalent cautious mood lends some support to the safe-haven Swiss Franc (CHF), which, along with subdued US Dollar (USD) price action, acts as a headwind for the USD/CHF pair. The market sentiment remains fragile in the wake of worries about a global economic sentiment, fueled by dismal Chinese macro data released on Wednesday. In fact, China’s trade surplus sank to a 13-month low in May, led by a surprise tumble in exports. This suggests that overseas demand for Chinese goods remained weak and poses additional challenges for the world’s second-largest economy, tempering investors’ appetite for riskier assets.
The USD, on the other hand, is oscillating in a familiar range over the past two weeks or so as market players seem uncertain over the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) next policy move. Last week’s dovish rhetoric by several Fed officials fueled speculations that the US central bank will keep interest rates unchanged at its upcoming monetary policy meeting on June 13-14. That said, the inflation and labor market data kept alive hopes for a 25 bps lift-off next week. Moreover, surprise rate hikes by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) and the Bank of Canada (BoC) this week suggest that the fight against inflation is still not over yet.
The prospects for further policy tightening by the Fed remain supportive of elevated US Treasury bond yields, which favours the USD bulls and should help limit the downside for the USD/CHF pair. That said, it will still be prudent to wait for a sustained breakout through the 100-day SMA before positioning for an extension of over a one-month-old uptrend. Traders now look to the release of the Weekly Initial Jobless Claims data from the US, due later during the North American session. This, along with the US bond yields, will influence the USD price dynamics and provide a fresh impetus to the major.
