We study the role of expectations in driving export adjustment. Using bilateral data on exchange rates, exchange rate forecasts, and HS2-product export data for a panel of countries, we show that expectations of exchange rate changes are an important channel for anticipatory export adjustment. In our preferred specification, an expected exchange rate depreciation induces substantial entry of new exporters (extensive margin adjustment), with no significant effect on total export volumes or the intensive margin. We develop a simple model with heterogeneous firms to provide intuition for these findings and discuss how anticipation behavior may affect trade elasticity measurement.
