Citi signals EUR/CHF rally may have peaked amid ECB, tariff news

 


 

According to Citi analysts, market sentiment on the EUR/CHF currency pair seems to be changing.

The EUR/CHF exchange rate has somewhat reconnected with interest rate differentials as a result of Germany's recent budgetary initiatives. But according to Citi analysts, the current price may now accurately reflect these concerns.


If there are negative developments about tariffs as the April 2 deadline draws near, the European Central Bank's (ECB) dovish attitude could be further emphasised. The EUR/CHF exchange rate may be impacted by this possible expansion of the ECB's dovish premium.

Furthermore, it is not anticipated that the Swiss Franc will decline much as a result of this week's Swiss National Bank (SNB) meeting. According to Citi analysts, the SNB's only viable options are to maintain the existing rates or implement a hawkish interest rate drop that would indicate a policy halt.

Additionally, Citi notes that the market appears to have already built in a significant degree of confidence surrounding a peace plan for Ukraine. Citi analysts think that the recent surge in the EURCHF exchange rate may have peaked due to these combined factors.
