CHF Bank Holiday
Swiss banks will be closed in observance of Swiss National Day;
Banks facilitate the majority of foreign exchange volume. When they are closed the market is less liquid and speculators become a more dominant market influence. This can lead to both abnormally low and abnormally high volatility;
Most Forex brokers remain open for every holiday except Christmas and New Year's Day. Stock markets and banks have slightly different holiday schedules;

Major currencies are caught in a lull, not much changed to start the new week. It owes in part to a lack of interest as the Easter break is still in effect for some major markets globally. Australia and New Zealand are out today and it is also a holiday for almost the whole of Europe as well. Given that, liquidity conditions will be heavily impacted in the session ahead. So, don't expect much in terms of notable market action. It should be a rather quiet one barring any major surprises. Adding to that is the fact that markets are ...

Wall Street is starting to get nervous as we near the X-date. A US default seemed unimaginable a couple of weeks ago and despite a lot of positive comments from both sides, negotiations will go down to the wire and that means the risk that it falls apart is growing. Treasury Secretary Yellen will soon provide an update on the X-date and that could show talks might have an extra week from the current June 1st deadline to get a deal done. Economic data for the week will focus on the labor market, consumer confidence, and ISM ...

We heard from three central banks this week: the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ), the Bank of Canada (BoC), and the European Central Bank (ECB). The first two hiked by 50 bps, the latter of course kept rates steady. All three warned of the same thing: the risk that people begin to think that the current high level of inflation will last for a long time. They said as follows: RBNZ: The Committee will remain focused on ensuring that current high consumer price inflation does not become embedded into longer-term inflation ...

Most centers are closed for holidays today. The Asia Pacific equity markets there were open moved lower following the losses on Wall Street yesterday. The weakness of the yen failed to underpin Japanese shares. China disappointed most observers by failing to cut the one-year medium-term lending facility rate (2.85%) and shares slipped. The dollar is mostly higher. It is up for the 11th consecutive sessions against the Japanese yen. The euro fell to its lowest level in nearly two years yesterday (slightly below $1.0760) following the ...
