Swiss KoF economic barometer surprisingly increased - financial expert analyzes USD/CHF development
According to a report by stock3.com, the Swiss KoF economic barometer surprisingly rose to 97.8 points in December. Analysts' consensus had expected a decline to 96.7 points. This unexpected increase shows unexpected strength in the Swiss economy, although the barometer remains below average and the outlook for early 2024 remains cautious.
The USD/CHF currency is showing a volatile reaction to the news, with a decline in European trading on Friday morning. The pair traded at 0.8373, with next key support at 0.8332 and next key resistance at 0.8580. This reaction reflects the uncertainty and volatility in the foreign exchange market.
