A hawkish Fed and a dovish SNB are driving gains in USDCHF

USDCHF extended its upward move, gaining 1.3% this week and more than 3.3% since the start of the month. The pair was supported by a stronger US dollar after hawkish signals from the Fed, while the Swiss franc weakened as the SNB kept rates at 0% and signaled readiness to intervene in the FX market.
