Swiss franc is holding its losses after Trump’s 39% tariff rate announcement

Forex Short News

It’s a groundhog sort of day, back to tariff news:

Trump signed an order raising tariff rate on Canada to 35%, from 25%

Trump has hammered Switzerland with a 39% tariff rate

More:

  • all goods that are considered to have been transshipped to avoid applicable duties will be subject to an additional 40% tariff,
  • while the new tariff on Canada hits August 1 (just a few hours Eastern time) other tariffs come into effect in 7 days

CHF a loser.
