TLT•GKB expects the dollar to weaken against the Swiss franc later in 2027 as the US-Swiss interest-rate differential narrows. Markets price in three 25-basis-point Federal Reserve rate increases by mid-2027, with the next increase expected in December 2026.
The dollar is expected to weaken against the Swiss franc later in 2027 as the US-Swiss interest-rate differential begins to narrow. The current differential continues to support the dollar, while USD/CHF’s break above 0.82 has improved its technical outlook.
Markets price in three Federal Reserve rate increases of 25 basis points each by mid-2027 amid resilient growth and persistent inflation. The next increase is expected in December 2026 despite weaker-than-expected September job creation. US third-quarter growth likely reached around 3%, driven by artificial intelligence investment, while household spending remained strong despite stagnant real incomes.
