Swiss franc retreats from intraday peak after Swiss CPI undershoots forecasts
Switzerland's CPI undershot expectations, prompting a pullback in the Swiss franc from an intraday high versus the US dollar. The softer inflation print reduces perceived pressure on the SNB to tighten further, weakening near-term CHF support even as USD/CHF remains close to the 0.8140 area and within its recent range. The main channel is a repricing of Swiss rate expectations and short-term FX positioning.
