The economic data released on Wednesday showed that the US Industrial Production increased 1.0% in July, beating market expectations of 0.3% and a prior decrease of 0.8%. In July, Building Permits increased from 1.44 million to 1.44 million, while Housing Starts increased from 1.39 million in June to 1.45 million, exceeding expectations of 1.48 million.

The renewed tension between the US and China might benefit the safe-haven Swiss Franc and act as a headwind for the USD/CHF pair.
In the absence of any relevant market-moving economic releases from Switzerland, the USD/CHF pair remains at the mercy of USD price dynamics.
