El subsidio cambiario se está cerrando. El descuento que queda es el del precio.
Our first editorial: the strongest peso in over a year changes the math for USD buyers. The same USD 250,000 buys ~13% less Colombia than in the TRM-4,100 era.
TAKEAWAYWhen the currency stops subsidizing the purchase, the only discount left is the one in the price: checkable, in pesos, at signing. It is exactly the discount this site measures.Read at FlipMedellín → - semana.comJun 04, 2026
Encuestas de segunda vuelta: De la Espriella 50,3% frente a Cepeda 42,6% según AtlasIntel
AtlasIntel, the pollster that called the first round, has Abelardo de la Espriella at 50.3% vs Iván Cepeda's 42.6% for the June 21 runoff. Other polls show similar leads.
TAKEAWAYThe market is already pricing this outcome, which is why the peso is strong. The risk is the upset: in 2022 the dollar went from 3,800 to 5,200 between the runoff and inauguration. Every USD figure published before June 21 carries a date for a reason.Read at semana.com → - noticiascaracol.comJun 04, 2026
TRM se sostiene cerca de 3.570 tras las elecciones: nivel más fuerte del peso en más de un año
The June 4 TRM settled at 3,572.85 pesos per dollar and held under 3,600 the rest of the week, reflecting sustained peso strength after the presidential first round.
TAKEAWAYThe live TRM in our top bar comes from this same series. At 3,570, an 800M COP apartment costs ~USD 224,000; at early-2025's 4,100 it cost ~195,000. Same peso price, 15% more in dollars.Read at noticiascaracol.com → - elcolombiano.comJun 01, 2026
Peso colombiano lidera ganancias globales tras la primera vuelta presidencial
After the May 31 first round, the dollar fell more than 100 pesos and the Colombian peso posted its biggest gain in months, becoming the best-performing emerging-market currency. Stocks and sovereign bonds rallied too.
TAKEAWAYFor USD buyers, every peso of appreciation makes the same apartment more expensive. The FX subsidy of the last three years is closing; the discount that remains is the one in the price. Expect volatility through the June 21 runoff.Read at elcolombiano.com →
