USD/CHF quiet, no safe-haven bid

The franc is not reacting to equity futures.

FX · 09:14 ET · Delayed. Not a solicitation to trade.

USD/CHF is quiet. There is no safe-haven bid. The franc is not reacting to equity futures, so the desk does not read the day as a flight.

A quiet franc with slightly firm equity futures fits a concentration day in the index, not stress. Stress would move the franc and the yen together.

The pair stays an observation, not a position in this note.

What the desk is watching
