Fundamental view

The annualized index of consumer prices (CPI) in Switzerland probably rose 0.2% in June, after it gained 0.2% in May. In monthly terms, consumer prices probably gained 0.1% last month, following a 0.3% advance in May. In case the CPI accelerated more than anticipated, this would have a bullish effect on the franc. The official report is to be released at 7:15 GMT.

In addition, Retail Sales in the country probably jumped 1.5% in May compared to a year ago, following a 0.4% gain in the previous month.

The index measures the change in the value of sales made by retailers in the country. The amount of sales includes indirect taxes, but without discounts. Revenue from wholesale and the provision of those services are not included. The study includes 850 different business activities. Dealers of vehicles are also included, with the exception of those selling motorcycles. This is the percentage change compared to the corresponding month of the previous year.

The Federal Statistical Office will publish an official report at 07:15 GMT.

Technical view

According to Binary Tribune’s daily analysis, in case NZD/CHF manages to breach the first resistance level at 0.7833, it will probably continue up to test 0.7851. In case the second key resistance is broken, the pair will probably attempt to advance to 0.7866.

If NZD/CHF manages to breach the first key support at 0.7800, it will probably continue to slide and test 0.7785. With this second key support broken, the movement to the downside will probably continue to 0.7767.
