    ``Institutions are herding animals,'' says Peter Anderson, who
    heads the pension-fund management arm of IDS Financial Services
    Inc.

<note>
I think that sentence is misparsed, too; it's not that the
institutions are causing some animals to group together, but that
institutions are animals that cause something else (customers?
investors?) to group together.
