Colombia’s COLCAP index closed at 1,672.88 on June 25, 2025, notching a marginal 0.07% gain and reaching a new one-month high, according to official exchange data and MSCI figures.

The session reflected a cautious but persistent upward trend that has defined the market’s performance in recent weeks. Trading activity in the last 24 hours showed investors favoring financial and utility stocks, while energy and consumer staples faced pressure.

Bancolombia Pf led the winners, surging 4.20% to 45,660. Grupo Cibest SA climbed 2.48% to 50,480, and Celsia SA advanced 2.33% to 4,605.

On the losing side, Ecopetrol SA dropped 3.50% to 1,930, Grupo Nutresa SA fell 2.63% to 126,000, and Grupo de Inversiones Suramericana SA slipped 1.01% to 46,920.

These moves came as global oil prices softened and some investors took profits in recent outperformers. Technical analysis of the daily and four-hour COLCAP charts confirms a market in a steady uptrend.

The 50-day simple moving average sits below the current price, signaling continued bullish momentum. The MACD indicator on both timeframes shows a clear bullish crossover, with the histogram expanding, indicating strengthening upward momentum.

Colombia’s Market Gains Momentum

The RSI stands at 63.28 on the four-hour chart and 58.42 on the daily, both below the overbought threshold but suggesting the market approaches stretched territory.

Bollinger Bands on both charts reveal price touching the upper band, a sign of strong momentum but also a potential precursor to short-term consolidation. Support levels remain firm around 1,653 and 1,651, while resistance is visible near 1,675.

Volume analysis shows steady participation, with no major spikes, confirming the reliability of the recent breakout above the consolidation range. The technical setup supports a cautiously optimistic outlook, but the proximity to overbought conditions calls for vigilance.

Fundamental data continues to shape sentiment. Colombia’s GDP grew 2.7% year-on-year, while inflation edged up to 5.16%. The central bank maintained its policy rate at 9.25%.

The peso traded at 4,057.94 per US dollar, up 0.10% on the day, reflecting stability. The COLCAP index, with a dividend yield of 7.86% and a price-to-earnings ratio of 8.43, remains attractively valued compared to regional peers.

Benchmarking against Brazil and Mexico, Colombia’s market has outperformed in local currency terms this year, though it remains sensitive to commodity price swings and global risk sentiment.

Latin American equities overall have rebounded in 2025, but Colombia’s cyclical tilt and sector composition have helped it weather recent volatility better than some neighbors.

The day’s narrative centers on sector rotation and technical strength, with financials and utilities drawing inflows while energy and consumer names lag.

The charts and fundamentals together point to a market that is resilient but not immune to external shocks, warranting a measured approach as the index tests new highs.
