Personally, I think it's probably a peace offering from the swiss because of all the shit going on right now with swiss banking, etc. Switzerland has long been famous for being a safe harbor for many types of activities and the new US administration is really trying to crack down on all the untaxed funds US citizens are storing there. I know people who are pulling huge amounts of cash out of the Swiss banking system because of this, so I imagine the hurt is huge.
