However, the Canadian Dollar (CAD) dragged down on Wednesday due to the decline in Crude oil prices.

USD/CHF
USD/CHF moves on a downward trajectory as the Swiss Franc (CHF) maintains its strength, driven by ongoing CHF repatriation by the Swiss National Bank (SNB). The USD/CHF pair retraces recent gains, trading lower around 0.8830 during the Asian session on Thursday.
CRUDE OIL
Oil prices fell by more than 1% on Thursday, extending losses from the previous session, after OPEC+ postponed a ministerial meeting, leading to speculation that producers might cut output less than earlier anticipated.
