Soothing Report The analysts expected an improvent in the Colombian's economy along the second trimester of the current year but not as peachy as the Dane reported yesterday. According to this Public Institute, the Gross Domestic Product had an expantion of 2.8 percent between April-June vis-a-vis the same period of the last year. Despite the fact that it is not an extraordinary figure, it is at least a good sign that the worst is behind and the economy is reactivating itself. Morover, we can say that we go ahead of the regional media. Colombia, Chile and Peru are now in the group of countries who are growing faster in Latin America. On the other side, the cases of Brasil and Argentina unfortunately don't have the same result neither Venezuela who has a reduction of 18 percent, according to the International Monetary Fund. It is very laudable this Colombian growing tendency. The first semester, the rate of the GDP was at 2.2 percent, and the following quarter, that speed augment on six porcentual decimals. The expectation for the second part of the year is that this speed will be better, and because of that, not only the economy may reach the goal of 2.7 but it could also overcome it. The prognosis for 2019 is event better since the rate is over the 3.5 percent. The path for those achievements is complicated and tought but we can't underestimate these great results!
