Colombian Policy Turmoil Highlights Diverging Moves in Global Gas and Oil Benchmarks

Colombia’s mounting energy risks are drawing investor attention to global gas and oil benchmarks, as policy shifts under President Gustavo Petro coincide with tightening regional supply and rising import dependence. Against this backdrop, Natural Gas, Oil – US Crude, and Oil – Brent Crude prices remain key gauges of how markets are pricing geopolitical and regulatory uncertainty.

Over the past month, natural gas has fallen about 41.7%, underscoring a sharp bearish trend reinforced by a 1-day technical signal of Strong Sell. In contrast, U.S. crude is up roughly 9.2% with a near-term Buy bias, while Brent has gained about 9.8% and also flashes a short-term Buy reading, suggesting oil markets are pricing tighter conditions even as gas remains under pressure.
