The yield on the 10-year Swiss government bond was around 0.26%, down from a two-week high of nearly 0.28% hit on October 1st, as traders assessed the implications of the latest inflation data on central bank's actions. Swiss inflation stood at 0.2% in September, marking the fourth straight month of price growth, though missing analysts' forecasts of 0.3%. Compared to the prior month, the CPI fell by an expected 0.2%, after a 0.1% decrease in July. While price dynamics remain subdued, inflation should continue to evolve in the low range of the SNB’s 0–2% target band, allowing the central bank to keep rates on hold for "some time". President Martin Schlegel said recently that inflation is expected to rise gradually in the coming months, while Switzerland’s economy remains stable with moderate growth and only a slightly higher risk from pharmaceutical tariffs. Most economists expect rates to remain at 0% for the rest of the year, with only a few anticipating a possible cut in December.
