Forecasters herd (anti-herd) if their forecasts are biased towards (away from) the consensus forecast. Upon implementing a robust empirical test developed by Bernhardt et al. (J. Financ. Econ. 80: 657-675, 2006), we found that forecasters of the yen/dollar and the dollar/euro exchange rates anti-herd.
