I use relativ e allocations between otherwise identical exchange-traded funds (ETFs) off ered with and without a currency hedge to measure investors’ pure currency demand and infer a distribution of currency return expectations. These po rtfolio-implied expectations predict future exchange rates more accurately than survey-based expectations or expectations derived from macroeconomic models or currency pricing factors. Dispersion in portfolio-implied expec tations accounts for 27% of exchange rate volatility\, consistent with mod els of heterogeneous beliefs.\n DTSTART:20260109T153000Z DTEND:20260109T164500Z LOCATION:Room 340\, Bronfman Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1G5\, 1001 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Finance Area Seminar: Leonie Braeuer URL:/desautels/channels/event/finance-area-seminar-leo nie-braeuer-370201 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
