Yen and Franc Followed Bonds Higher, Ignored Record Running Stocks

The developments last week were a bit confounding, as both stocks and bonds rallied notably. Yen and Swiss Franc followed the path of falling yields and rose as the biggest winner of the week.

Dollar was not much helped by Fed's tapering and solid job data. Australia Dollar ignored broad risk-on sentiment, and ended as the worst performer after RBA hinted that it's in no rush for rate hike. Sterling was the second worst after BoE disappointed those who expected an imminent hike.

The path ahead could depend on how far stocks would go, and how deep yields would fall, and the balance of the impacts on the currency markets. That would also very much depend on the upcoming inflation data from the US.

EUR/CHF Weekly Outlook

EUR/CHF dropped further to 1.0532 last week. Downside momentum diminished slightly but there is no sign of bottoming yet. Further fall is expected this week as long as 1.0602 resistance holds. Current down trend from 1.1159 would target 100% projection of 1.1149 to 1.0694 from 1.0936 at 1.0481. On the upside, however, break of 1.0602 will turn bias to the upside for stronger rebound back towards 1.0678 support turned resistance.
