Well it seems Nikon price rise effective from 1st of March is now official. Info from several sites confirms what is in this link.

No idea of rough percentages yet, but I will know once the new list is published. I have however seen pro lenses advertised at up to 8.6% above current list, suggesting at least another 15% is on the cards.
I have not followed the Sigma range, but if as this link suggests they raised prices by an average of 40% then this round from Nikon could be a bit painful particularly for the pro end of the lens range. Nikons last price rise was generally around 15% on lenses so considerably less than the Sigma number.
