Thursday, June 4, 2026 · Covering Wednesday June 3 session

Summary

Colombia stock market report: the COLCAP slipped 1.13% to 2,238.99 on Wednesday June 3. The market started the day near its high point and drifted lower from there, giving back a little of the strong run it had after the first-round election result. It was a small step back, not a sharp turn.

The encouraging detail is that the market held above the 2,205 level that has been acting as a floor. Slipping below that line would suggest the election rally had run out of steam, so staying above it means this looks more like a pause than the end of the move. Nothing in the political picture actually changed to cause the dip.

The Colombian peso, meanwhile, kept the strong gains it made right after the vote, a good sign that investors still like where the country may be heading. The big date ahead is the June 21 run-off between Abelardo de la Espriella and Iván Cepeda, and President Petro’s refusal to accept the count is the main thing that could spoil the mood.
