On April 26, UBS said that the current market thinking is consistent with the banks basic forecast, that is, tariffs will be reduced from the current announced level for the rest of the year, and the Federal Reserve will further cut interest rates this year. However, as uncertainty in trade, economy and Federal Reserve policy remains high, expected volatility also remains high. However, UBS believes that the US stock market is attractive, and the S&P 500 index target continues to be 5,800 points by the end of the year. UBSs current basic forecast is that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 75 to 100 basis points this year, but in the short term, the Feds policy flexibility seems more limited because it must balance concerns about economic growth with the risk of inflation recovery.According to AFP: Senior officials said that Ukrainian President Zelensky and US President Trump may meet in Rome.Spokesman for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has arrived in Rome to attend the Popes funeral.According to the Ukrainian National News Agency: Russian troops launched 414 attacks in the Zaporizhia region at night.Market news: Ukrainian President Zelensky and his wife arrived in Rome.

USD/CHF Oscillates between 0.9330 and 0.9350 as the DXY Finds Support at 99.70

The USD/CHF pair is trading in a range of 0.9325-0.9356 as the US dollar index (DXY) seeks bids near 99.70 following a sharp decline on Wednesday. The asset is inching closer to its weekly high of 0.9370.

 

The pair is aiming higher as the probability of a Federal Reserve interest rate hike of 50 basis points (bps) increases (Fed). In May, the Fed will dictate monetary policy, and a rising US Consumer Price Index (CPI) combined with a tight job market increases the likelihood of an aggressive hawkish attitude for May and the remainder of the year.

 

Fed Governor Christopher Waller advocated for aggressive interest rate hikes in the future, but cautioned that aggressiveness should not be confused with abruptness, as this could push the US economy into recession. An rapid shift in interest rate policy will significantly lower aggregate demand and employment possibilities, posing a substantial danger to the US economy.

 

Investors' attention will now turn to monthly US retail sales, which are expected to come in at 0.6 percent, up from the previous figure of 0.3 percent. While the Swiss bourse will publish its annual Real Retail Sales report later this month. Previously, Swiss Real Retail Sales were registered at 12.8 percent during a 12-month period.
