Key facts

Colombia’s COLCAP index jumped +1.22% to close at 2,406.14 on Thursday, June 18, a gain of about 29 points.

The advance carried the index to a fresh multi-month high and extended a powerful June run.

This time the big banks and financial groups led, a shift from the mining-led gains of the day before.

Buying intensified with Colombia’s June 21 presidential runoff now just days away.
