From: Great expectations? evidence from Colombia’s exchange rate survey

Type of expectation

k = 1 Month

k = 1 Year

Extrapolative \(E_{t}[\Delta S_{i,t+k}]=\beta _{0}+\beta _{1}\Delta S_{t} + \epsilon _{it}\)

\(\beta _{1}=\) −0.03** (0.013)

\(\beta _{1}=\) −0.13*** (0.015)

Adaptive \(E_{t}[\Delta S_{i,t+k}]=\alpha _{0}+\alpha _{1}(S_{t}-E_{t-k}[S_{it}])+\nu _{it}\)

\(\alpha _{1}=\) −0.05*** (0.016)

\(\alpha _{1}=\) −0.15*** (0.017)

Regressive \(E_{t}[\Delta S_{i,t+k}]=\gamma _{0}+\gamma _{1}(S_{t}-\bar{S_{t}})+\eta _{it}\)

\(\gamma _{1}=\) −0.05*** (0.005)

\(\gamma _{1}=\) 0.11*** (0.029)
