Yes the swiss is down a little bit more the the EUR so it is a bit away from the dreaded 1.50s where the swissies get nervous. The yen shows some resilience but that´s clear with the Treasury buying. I briefly sold some $ Libor, believing that treasury buying, and strong equity markets could cause a $ shortage, but not so, so I quickly gave it up. It has advanced some points by now. Yes I saw the CAD forging ahead, and thought this could also apply to the pound... but, so far a dud. NG, Wheat and Corn are up for the first time in weeks, right after NG scratched a multi year low.
