UBS Group climbed nearly 2.5%. Sika, Partners Group and Richemont gained 2 to 2.25%.

Givaudan gained 1.84%, Credit Suisse surged 1.69% and Holcim gained 1.32%, while Geberit, Logitech and ABB ended higher by 0.9 to 1.1%.

Roche Holding drifted down nearly 1%, Novartis ended 0.65% down, and Lonza Group shed 0.28%.

In the Mid Price Index, Bachem Holding rallied nearly 3%. Julius Baer, Ems Chemie Holding and Straumann Holding gained 2.14%, 1.82% and 1.67%, respectively. AMS, Clariant, Georg Fischer, VAT Group and Dufry also ended notably higher.
