Overview:

USD/CHF is expected to consolidate with the bullish bias after hitting three-and-a-half month high at 0.8990 on Wednesday.It is underpinned by the stronger USD undertone, contagion from weak euro on CHF, franc sales on soft CHF/JPY cross, and dovish Swiss National Bank's monetary policy stance. But CHF sentiment are boosted by the stronger-than-expected Switzerland 1Q GDP growth (came in +2.0% on-year versus +1.8% forecast). USD/CHF gains are also tempered by the franc demand on soft EUR/CHF cross. Daily chart is positive-biased as MACD and stochastics are bullish, although the latter is at the overbought zone, five and 15-day moving averages are advancing.
