I've outlined the original motivation to study historical LIBOR data from predictability point of view in the USD LIBOR article. I continue with the logarithmic returns technique that proved useful in forex. Like the previous reports, this document begins with historical LIBOR charts for the Swiss Franc, continues with volatility analysis, and culminates with autocorrelations and correlations. You will see that predictable patterns in CHF LIBORs vary with duration term. Autocorrelations of short-term LIBORs show fast (about 4-day period) oscillation. For 3-month and 6-month terms, the main correlation pattern does not develop 70-day period waves on top of positive background, in contrast to USD and EUR LIBORs, but keeps oscillating between positive and negative autocorrelation values, with the oscillation period longer than that of the shorter terms. The autocorrelation of 12-month LIBOR remains similar to 6-month instead of becoming more uniformly positive as it does for JPY or more jittery as it does for USD, EUR and GBP.
