GBERY Geberit Ag Jona (PK)

1622 GMT [Dow Jones] SMI ends 0.2% higher at 7683.04, continuing to bounce back from a dip brought on by a recent spate of downbeat economic news. Geberit is the top gainer in Zurich, rising 1.3%. Swatch closes 1.1% higher after CEO Hayek is quoted in a Swiss news report as saying the firm expects "a strong second half of the year." Rival Richemont ends with a 0.5% gain. Banks are among with principal fallers, with UBS and Credit Suisse both down 0.6% and Julius Baer ending 0.3% lower. (john.letzing@wsj.com)
