CAD gains along with firm inflation and better risk sentiment

Canada saw some better than expected inflation data on Friday which were welcomed by USD/CAD sellers.

USD/CHF in a sideways mode

USD/CHF started the week on a strong note but then gave back all the gains and is currently holding onto 0.9875 - 0.99 support area. A break below it would probably mean another shot at 0.98 - 0.985.
