Performance of the Tecan share in 2018

Until October 2018, the equity markets continued to perform strongly. However, after a sharp correction, they ended the year below the level of 2017. The SMI, which covers Swiss blue-chip stocks, lost 10.2% for the year. The SPI Extra, which encompasses small and mid-cap companies on the SIX Swiss Exchange, was down by 17.2%.

 

At CHF 190.80, shares of Tecan also ended the year below 2017. With a loss of 5.9% however, Tecan shares markedly outperformed the SPI Extra benchmark. The daily closing price high for the year was CHF 255.80 in July, and it was also an all-time high for Tecan shares (taking into consideration stock splits).
