• USD/CHF trades flat around 0.7870 in Monday’s early European session. 
• Markets now see the next Fed interest rate move. 
• Trump threatened Iran to “get moving” or there “won’t be anything left of them.”

The USD/CHF pair holds steady near 0.7870 during the early European session on Monday. The pair currently trades near the highest since April 30, bolstered by a stronger US Dollar (USD). Traders will closely monitor the developments surrounding the US-Iran conflicts. 

Hotter-than-expected US inflation reports released last week have led the market to price in potential US Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate hikes later this year, supporting the Greenback. According to the CME FedWatch tool, financial markets are now pricing in nearly a 48.4% chance the Fed could hike rates by at least 25 basis points (bps) at its December meeting, compared with 14.3% a week ago. 

US President Donald Trump on Sunday warned Iran that the “clock is ticking” as talks to bring the war to an end have stalled. Meanwhile, Iranian media reported the US had failed to make any concrete concessions in its response to Tehran’s latest proposals to end the conflict.

A lack of compromise from Washington and signs of a prolonged conflict could lift the USD against the Swiss Franc (CHF) in the near term. RBC Capital Markets analysts noted that the USD is better shielded from global energy shocks than the CHF because the US operates as a net oil exporter.
