What's Driving GBP/CHF
- 🇨🇭 Pound Sterling Live's medium-term forecast is for GBP/CHF to return towards its September peak near 1.1060, with Swiss National Bank content to see CHF weaken
- GBP/CHF fell from its mid-September peak in a broad GBP selloff and has recovered since Swiss National Bank's 24 September decision
- GBP/CHF uptrend runs from 1.03 in early March, built on a series of higher lows
- 21-day moving average at 1.0979 caps GBP/CHF; a close above opens 1.10 and then September peak
- 1.09 capped GBP/CHF in late July and has acted as floor through September
- A break of 1.09 exposes GBP/CHF mid-August low near 1.0845, then 100-day moving average at 1.0806
- GBP/CHF has held above a steadily rising 100-day moving average since June, clearest marker of uptrend
- Swiss National Bank held its policy rate at 0% on 24 September and dropped its June reference to an "increased willingness" to intervene in currency markets
- Swiss National Bank Chairman Martin Schlegel said CHF has fallen about 3% on a trade-weighted basis – against a basket of trading partners' currencies – in line with widening interest rate differentials
- Lloyds Bank: Swiss National Bank likely content to see CHF depreciate gradually, making it an increasingly appealing funding currency – one borrowed cheaply to buy higher-yielding assets
- Money markets price close to three Swiss National Bank rate hikes, which would narrow GBP's yield premium; Lloyds Bank views that outcome as unlikely
