Based on the provided technical and fundamental data, here is a 3-month forecast: The stock is currently trading at $9.05, slightly below its 20-day SMA of $9.28 but above its 200-day SMA of $8.81. This indicates potential short-term weakness but overall bullish momentum in the longer term. The ATR of 0.44 suggests moderate volatility, with average price movements expected to remain within a range of $8.61 to $9.49 over the next three months. From a fundamental perspective, Ecopetrols P/E ratio of 5.39 and forward P/E of 6.91 suggest undervaluation relative to expected earnings growth. The companys return on equity (RoE) of 14.23% reflects strong profitability. However, the P/S ratio of 0.00 indicates either limited revenue generation or a focus on non-sales income streams. Overall, the stock is expected to stabilize near current levels in the short term, with potential upside driven by improving energy demand and the companys integrated business model. Longer-term growth will depend on the companys ability to expand its refining and petrochemical operations while navigating geopolitical and market risks.
