  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Did cigars out of Switzerland go up 30% this morning?

I was just curious if anyone had any insight on what effect the uncapping of the Swiss Franc to the Euro would have on cigars? Currency markets are complicated so I am not sure I understand it correctly. I believe I understand that products manufactured in Switzerland (Davidoff?) jumped in price 20 to 30 percent this morning because of the decoupling. What I am not sure about is what effect that would have on products imported to Switzerland to be exported abroad. Would be great if we had a currency trader among us to shed some light. Or even better someone with a good contact in Switzerland. Just curious. I may be totally off base.
