Swiss National Bank expects profit of $50bn

The Swiss National Bank says it expects to post an annual profit of 49 billion Swiss francs (50.29 billion dollars).

The bank made its expectations known in a statement on Thursday.

It cited big gains from its mountain of foreign bonds and stocks bought to dampen the value of the safe-haven Swiss franc.
