Forex: Swissy retreats from highs on disappointing CPI

By FXstreet.com July 06, 2010, 03:42:00 AM EDT

FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The Swiss Franc pulled-don from daily highs as the Swiss economy was unable to bolster any further CHF momentum as the reading misaligned with investors expectation. June CPI dipped by 0.40% compared to -0.10% in May.

Prior to the release, USD/CHF posted a new 12-week low at 1.0560 but missed the chance to extend to the downside. Instead, the pair bounced off lows to target 1.0610 now.

A similar reaction happened on GBP/CHF after a rejection from lows at 1.6035 sent the pair to daily highs at 1.6130. EUR/CHF also jumped above 1.3350 after declining to 1.3280 earlier on.
