Swiss CPI inflation data for May was released this morning at 7:30 am BST. Data came in-line with market expectations and showed a deceleration in headline measure from 2.6% to 2.2% YoY. This is the lowest reading since February 2022. Core gauge slowed from 2.2% to 1.9% YoY, slighly more than expected. As such an outcome was expected, there was no major reaction on CHF market.
