Colombian stocks rise 0.99%; peso extends gains

by Newswires June 21, 2011

Colombia news - bvc

Colombian stocks climbed Tuesday led by sharp gains in shares of Canada-based oil company Pacific Rubiales Energy Corp. (PRE.T).

The IGBC index, the market’s benchmark, rose 0.99% to close at 14197.88 points.

Rubiales shares, which trade in both Toronto and Bogota, jumped 3.46% Tuesday to COP49,100 as they began to rebound from a nine-month low of COP46,440 on June 17. The company’s stock price has been hurt by lower global oil prices in recent months and less-than-expected production and reserves figures for its oil fields, which are located in Colombia. For the year, Rubiales shares are down 22%.

The peso, meanwhile, strengthened against the dollar for a second session to close at COP1,780.50 to the dollar, from COP1,786.60 Monday.

The yield on the Colombian government’s benchmark 2020 peso-denominated bond stood at 7.661%, from 7.666% in the last trading session.
