Negative SNB outlook weakens franc
The Swiss currency found support on dips towards 1.21 against the dollar on Wednesday and strengthened through the 1.20 level as the US currency had a generally weaker tone. The franc also found some support weaker than the 1.56 level against the Euro.
At Thursday’s policy meting, the National Bank cut interest rates by 0.50% to a band of 0.0 - 1.0% with a central rate of 0.50% which was in line with market expectations.
The bank downgraded its outlook for 2009, forecasting that the economy would contract for the year, and it took a notably pessimistic stance towards the economy as a whole. The bank stated that it may have to consider alternative quantative measures to support the economy while the weakening of the franc was a deliberate policy.
In response to the bank’s comments, the franc weakened to beyond 1.57 against the Euro while the advance against the dollar stalled.
