> The USD/COP exchange rate rose for a second consecutive day, reaching a one-month high after U.S. October payrolls increased by 165,000, above expectations of 65,000. The unemployment rate fell to 4.1%, and stronger wage growth and consumer-sentiment data also supported the dollar.

## Why it matters

Stronger U.S. data lifted expectations for tighter Federal Reserve policy and supported the dollar against the Colombian peso. A higher USD/COP rate can raise the local-currency cost of imported feed and agricultural commodities.
