想知道哪里的東西最貴嗎？巨無霸指數(shù)告訴你，是瑞士，因為瑞士法郎是世界上最昂貴的貨幣。偏偏瑞士又是國人最熱愛的旅游地之一，所以去瑞士如果想吃得飽玩得爽一定要帶足了銀子。挪威、瑞典這兩個能看到美麗極光的北歐國家的物價僅次于瑞士。英國的東西出乎意料地“便宜”，英國漢堡的價格比新加坡和哥斯達黎加還低。那么哪個國家的東西最便宜呢？一起來看看“巨無霸指數(shù)”的最新報告。

Switzerland has retained its position as one of the most expensive spots in the world to buy a Big Mac, as the Swiss franc remains strong against all major currencies.
瑞士仍然是全世界巨無霸漢堡包價錢最貴的地方，這是由于瑞士法郎兌其他主要貨幣持續(xù)保持著強勁的勢頭。

The famed McDonald's burger will set you back 6.50 Swiss francs in the Alpine state - that works out at more than ￡5.20 ($6.35) for the patty sandwich alone, no fries or drink included.
在這個阿爾卑斯山脈橫跨的國家，聞名全球的麥當(dāng)勞漢堡售價6.50瑞士法郎——單買夾肉餅的三明治的話，要花5.20英鎊（6.35美元），其中不包括薯條和飲料。

The findings, exhibited in the Economist's Big Mac index, imply that the Swiss franc is overvalued by a meaty 25.5 percent.
《經(jīng)濟學(xué)人》巨無霸指數(shù)的這一發(fā)現(xiàn)意味著，瑞士法郎被高估了25.5%，這十分耐人尋味。

At the other end of the scale, Egypt is best value for money with a crippled Egyptian pound, as you can snap up a Big Mac in Cairo for a digestible ￡1.20 ($1.46).
在天平的另一邊，由于埃及磅暴跌，埃及的漢堡最物有所值。在開羅，你只需花費1.2英鎊（合1.46美元），就能吃到一個可口的巨無霸。

The price of Big Macs is compared against the standard US price for the product - which is currently $5.06, about ￡4.14 in sterling.

上周，美元兌墨西哥比索匯率觸及22.04，創(chuàng)歷史新低。美國候任總統(tǒng)特朗普警告美國汽車公司，如果把汽車交給墨西哥生產(chǎn)，則將面臨高額稅收，上周三墨西哥股指應(yīng)聲下跌。
