The Swiss franc was little changed on Thursday against the dollar with the euro holding on to most of its gains from the previous session when the unwinding of carry trades pushed the franc sharply higher.
Markets now await the Swiss employment report for the third quarter due later in the day for insight in the strength of job creation and possible inflation pressures from a tighter labour market. The franc was trading down 0.06 percent on the day at 1.2268 per dollar, near a 3-month high of 1.2256 hit in the previous session.
Against the euro, the franc was flat on the day at 1.5871 per euro after solid gains in the previous session took the franc further away from 6-1/2 year low of 1.6013 hit last week.
