Why is RaiPlay’s coverage relevant to Swiss investors today?

It focuses on tariffs, conflicts, and US‑Iran tensions that can shift energy prices, FX, and risk appetite. These drivers affect Swiss exporters’ margins, the franc, and rate views. Watching the segment helps align alerts and scenarios before volatility picks up around European trading hours.

How could tariffs affect Swiss stocks?

Tariffs can raise input costs and slow orders, squeezing pricing power. Exporters tied to European supply chains would feel it first. Monitor company updates on routing, inventories, and customer pricing. Also track franc strength, as a stronger CHF plus tariffs can pressure earnings and guidance.

How do Ukraine war impact and US‑Iran tensions move CHF?

Geopolitical stress often sends investors toward safe assets, including the Swiss franc. That can strengthen CHF, cushioning local portfolios but weighing on exporters. Watch EUR/CHF, energy benchmarks, shipping conditions, and SNB communication to gauge whether risk aversion is building or easing.

What should I watch during the RaiPlay time slot?

Note any concrete signals on tariffs, energy security, and defense budgets. Translate them into scenarios for margins, orders, and FX. Set alerts on EUR/CHF and oil benchmarks. Avoid chasing the first move; instead, define entry levels, stops, and position sizes that fit your risk plan.

How can I manage risk if headlines turn negative?

Use predefined scenarios with clear exit rules. Reduce concentration, keep some cash, and prefer liquid instruments like ETFs. Hedge FX where needed, and stagger orders. Recheck earnings sensitivity for energy‑intensive sectors and update stop levels to reflect higher volatility and wider bid‑ask spreads.
