    PRESENTACIÓN SEMANAL 5 de abril de 2021 PRINCIPALES CONCLUSIONES EN ESTE REPORTE Contexto En marzo, se crearon 916 mil nóminas no agrícolas en Estados Unidos, por encima de la expectativa del mercado. La dinámica del mercado laboral en este periodo se vio favorecida por el avance en la vacunación y la aprobación del paquete fiscal por USD 1.9 billones. En todo caso, frente a febrero del año 2020, permanece una destrucción de 8.4 millones de puestos de trabajo. El Banco Mundial revisó al alza sus perspectivas de crecimiento para América Latina y el Caribe, desde -7.9% y 4% en 2020 y 2021, hasta -6.7% y 4.4%, respectivamente. Para Colombia, revisó su pronóstico de crecimiento para 2021 hasta 5%, desde 4.9%, una cifra consistente con la que recientemente publicó el Ministerio de Hacienda en su Plan Financiero. En Colombia, la tasa de desempleo en el total nacional fue de 15.9% en febrero. Frente a febrero de 2020, permanece una destrucción de 1.18 millones de puestos de trabajo. En sus minutas de la reunión del 26 de marzo, los codirectores insistieron en la necesidad de que se apruebe por parte del congreso un programa de ajuste fiscal que apunte a garantizar la sostenibilidad de las finanzas públicas que le permita al Banco de la República mantener una política monetaria expansionista sin comprometer la estabilidad macroeconómica. Reconocieron además el ajuste en las condiciones financieras derivado de las desvalorizaciones recientes en los Tesoros americanos, aunque insistieron en que aún prevalece un ambiente de alta liquidez global.

    ESTRATEGIA MENSUAL Agosto de 2021 El segundo semestre cuenta con condiciones favorables para el mercado local • El rezago del mercado local continúa siendo evidente, donde el MSCI COLCAP ha retrocedido cerca de un 14% durante 2021, mientras que las bolsas en países emergentes han registrado desempeños positivos promedio del 2%. Uno de los principales factores que han contribuido en este desempeño son las ventas netas de extranjeros, que acumulan COP 1.6 bn a julio. En la región, únicamente Perú, que recientemente eligió nuevo presidente, presenta retornos similares a los de Colombia. • Pese a que los resultados durante 2020 reflejaron impactos significativos en las cifras de distintas compañías, para lo que resta del año son bastante positivas. Sin embargo, los múltiplos de mercado en Colombia, tales como el P/VL se mantienen muy distantes de los promedios de los últimos años y consideramos que no reflejan la recuperación que prevemos continuarán mostrando las compañías en los próximos años, lo cual evidencia el descuento excesivo en algunas acciones. • Uno de los factores que podría contribuir al repunte en las acciones es el desempeño financiero positivo de las compañías. La temporada de resultados inició en la última semana de julio y anticipamos que el grueso de las compañías locales mostrarán variaciones positivas significativas, favorecidas por la recuperación en varios sectores, las menores restricciones y pese a los efectos de las protestas. Algunos factores que favorecerán los resultados de algunas compañías son la tasa de cambio, las desinversiones, las menores necesidades de provisiones, entre otras. • Los resultados de la más reciente Gran Encuesta de Acciones (julio) mostraron que el 92% de los encuestados apunta a que el retorno del MSCI COLCAP se ubique en niveles entre -5% y +5% para 2021, lo que implica que todos estarían esperando un desempeño positivo del índice en lo que resta del año, donde para los próximos tres meses, la mediana de respuestas apuntan a un nivel del índice de 1,372 puntos.
