Dollar Swiss franc breakout momentum is confirming a fourth straight weekly advance as Federal Reserve revisions lift the dollar. Michael Boutros, StoneX Media Senior Market Analyst, walks through the weekly, daily and four hour picture on Dollar Swiss and what is driving it. The advance now runs close to 3.9% off the August low, with daily momentum pushing into territory it has not held since June. Boutros also covers the Federal Reserve dot plot revision, what fed funds futures imply for the remaining cuts this year, and why the Swiss National Bank rate decision matters for the pair.
