The Switzerland market shrugged off a slightly weak start and moved higher on Thursday amid continued optimism about interest rate cuts by the Swiss National Bank and the Federal Reserve in September, and on positive reaction to the latest batch of economic data from the U.S. and Europe. The benchmark SMI ended up by 69.02 points or 0.56% at 12,417.72. In such an optimistic market environment, growth companies with high insider ownership can be particularly attractive as they often signal strong confidence from those closest to the business.
