Swissie vibes are down bad 😤🤑 this month, as forecasted, hyping up the idea of more chill pill actions by the SNB. 🤙 Headline CPI slid 0.2% this Sept, keeping the downtrend real after last month’s 0.1% dip.
Main Tea from the September Swiss CPI
- Headline hit differently: The Swiss CPI took an L with a 0.2% drop month-over-month in September, keeping annual vibes steady at 0.2% compared to last year 🕒💸.
- Core inflation staying chill: Core inflation (excluding all the bougie fresh and seasonal stuff, energy, and fuel) clocked in at just 0.7% YOY, while monthly core CPI ticked down 0.2%.
- Price throwbacks were real: The monthly drop got its energy from cheaper sleepovers at random spots, international vacay packs, air rides, and private transport rents. ✈️🏨😴

The slump in core inflation was across the board, with domestic goodies diving 0.3% month-to-month and imported stuff slipping 0.1%. These moves totally overshadowed some glow-ups in knitwear, berries, and couch vibes. 🧶🍓🛋️The news dropped some serious questions on the power moves of the Swiss National Bank’s chill cycle, piling the stress on policymakers to think about leveling up their game. 💭🤔
With the policy rates already chilling at zero and deets showing 5.1 billion CHF in foreign cash splurges through Q2, the squad suggests FX intervention might be the quick flex, instead of diving into negative rates. 📉💵🌍
