The USD/CHF currency pair climbed to a 16-month high of 0.8367 during Asian trading hours on Thursday, marking its seventh consecutive trading day of gains, according to FX Street.
This upward move reflects a broader weakening in investor sentiment throughout September, driving demand for the US dollar against the Swiss franc.
For Japanese investors, this development comes as global risk sentiment remains fragile, impacting currency flows and potentially influencing Japan’s export-driven equity markets.
