Forward Exchange Rates as Optimal Predictors of Future Spot Rates: An Econometric Analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the hypothesis that the expected rate of return to speculation in the forward foreign exchange market is zero; that is, the logarithm of the forward exchange rate is the market's conditional expectation of the future spot rate, and they were able to reject the simple market efficiency hypothesis for exchange rates from the 1970s and the 1920s.
