At least since Fed Chairman Jerome Powell’s statements last Tuesday, interest rate concerns have again dominated market activity.

Fifteen minutes after the stock market opened, Switzerland’s most important stock market index, the SMI, fell by around 1.2 percent to 10,818.88 points. The index has dropped to its lowest level ever this year. SLI, with 30 titles and limited to the biggest titles, is losing some more ground.
Only the price increases (+0.2%) of the two stock market heavyweights Roche and Nestlé ensure that the SMI does not fall any further. Roche had come with good news from the US FDA in the morning. (SDA)
