TREE NEWS reports: Switzerland’s consumer price index rose 1.0% year-on-year in September, in line with the 1% forecast and up from 0.8% in the prior month. The reading keeps Swiss inflation within the Swiss National Bank’s price-stability range.
Swiss September CPI Rises 1% Year-on-Year, Matching Expectations
Swiss inflation drifting from 0.8% to 1.0% still leaves the SNB comfortably inside its price-stability range, which matters less for rate direction than for the currency.

Whether the franc's safe-haven bid stays the dominant story, rather than the CPI print itself, is the open question.
