Last week the Swiss National Bank surprised by cutting its key policy rate by 25bps after 9 months of Swiss inflation below target. On the topic of cuts, investor appetite was rekindled after the FED policy meeting fuelled hopes of three rate cuts this year and a soft-landing for the US economy. Finally, social media giant “Reddit” priced its IPO at $34 and ended its market debut trading up 48% at $50.44.
