Colombian Peso Surges 23% in 2026, Strongest Currency Globally
El UniversoLO·CO · US·about 18 hours ago
The Colombian peso opened weaker at $3,170 per USD, up $18.2 from the TRM, while Brent crude fell 1.6% to $103.17 and WTI dropped to $101.30. The peso depreciation likely reflects broader EM pressure, while the oil price decline may be driven by demand concerns or supply news. The divergence between a weaker peso and lower oil prices is notable for Colombia, a net oil exporter.
