Switzerland Producer & Import Prices YoY
The Producer Price Index (PPI) is formally known as the Producer and Import Price Index in Switzerland. Manufacturers and sellers of goods located within a country are monitored by the producer price index, whilst importers and sellers of goods located outside of a country are monitored by the importer and seller price index. When merging the indices, only domestic sales are taken into account for the producer price index.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the CHF while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the CHF.
