The currencies outperforming today's bearish market

Markets are mostly pointing down as we head into the end of today's session, but Dollar-Swiss gains 0.68% to top this list of the 3 biggest gainers at the moment.

The leading indices are falling — EUR/USD trades at 1.0578 after losing 0.29%. GBP/USD slipping 0.21% and closing at 1.2033.

This downslide might be related to financial indicators data published earlier as United States Consumer Confidence published today at 15:00 UTC came out at 102.9, falling short of the 108.5 projections and continuing its decline from the previous 106 figure.

Though markets had an unsatisfactory day yesterday, some currencies manage to recover as Top Gainers. Take a look:
