The Swiss KOF Economic Barometer dropped slightly in January

In January 2017, the Economic Barometer reached a score of 101.7 points. This relates to a slight downward revision by 0.4 points compared to its December value (102.1, revised from 102.2). Positive impulses to the Barometer came from the construction and the export sector.

Negative signals to the January standing came from indicators related to the financial sector, private consumption and, in particular, to the hotel and restaurant industry. The indicators from the manufacturing sector neutralized each other.
