BRUSSELS (dpa-AFX) - The Switzerland market ended notably lower on Thursday,
in line with markets across Europe, with investors largely tracking earnings
updates, and making cautious moves amid uncertainty about the outlook for Fed
interest rates.

points off the day's low of 11,345.29.

year. Foreign exchange decreased sales by 6.7%. Net divestitures had a negative
impact of 0.6%.
Quarterly group organic sales growth was 1.4%, driven by Europe and emerging
markets, with a negative impact from North America. Pricing was 3.4%, following
a high base of comparison in 2023.
