ok here’s a personal anecdote about the curious non-existence of Swiss inflation. After 10+ yrs, the awning/ sun shade over my terrace broke irreparably and needs to be replaced. Found the old invoice from 2014, contacted the Swiss distributor for the German supplier of the original sun shade >

Swiss inflation very much exists when you look at rents.

Got the estimate yesterday, and it’s identical (well about ~3% cheaper) than in 2014! The inputs are the same: identical German system + Swiss labour for installation >

The beauty of an exchange rate that has gone up 25 % 😀

this is compensated by the rise of health insurance costs 😭
