Colombia outlook in 30 seconds
- COLCAP at 2,484.43 after a 0.88% drop; Thursday’s low of 2,462.99 is the first level to watch.
- U.S. jobs data first: the October report lands at 8:30 a.m. ET, an hour before Bogotá and New York open. About 59,000 jobs are expected.
- ADRs: EC ($15.54) and CIB ($92.22) fell more than the local shares on Thursday; another down day on Wall Street would likely hit them again.
- Peso: steady near 3,231 per dollar. A strong U.S. report usually lifts the dollar against emerging-market currencies.
- Ecopetrol Q3 earnings come Tuesday, Nov. 10.

Currency risk for U.S. investors
The peso has gained about 14% against the dollar in 2026, which has boosted dollar returns on EC, CIB and COLO well above their peso returns. That cuts both ways: if Friday’s jobs report revives Fed hike bets and the dollar rallies, Colombian assets can lose value in dollar terms even if local prices hold. Read why the peso is so strong.

Brent rebounded about 1.6% to around $96 after Wednesday’s 8.7% plunge on signs of U.S.–Iran de-escalation. Headlines about Iran remain the biggest swing factor for Ecopetrol.
