Givaudan led the winners in the SMI after Deutsche Bank raised its price target and reiterated its buy recommendation. The SMI closed 0.2 percent higher at 14,395 points, supported by gains in Logitech, Partners Group and Roche. At the same time, Swiss inflation rose to 0.8 percent in August, weighing on market sentiment, while Treasury yields and the US dollar eased. » Altro su finanzen.net

Givaudan shares fall about 1.2% to 3,242 CHF after Jefferies analyst Marcus Dunford-Castro removed the buy recommendation for Givaudan and upgraded Symrise to "Buy." The analyst said the shift reflects Symrise’s stronger benefit from the growing pet food ingredients market. The price decline is further amplified by recently released half‑year results showing margin pressure and by weaker sentiment in global equity markets. » Altro su de.investing.com
