- AdvisorShares Gerber Kawasaki ETF (GK) is an actively managed, multi-thematic exchange-traded fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in a focused portfolio of growth stocks positioned to benefit from transformative societal changes, including demographics, environmental pressures, disruptive technologies, and product innovation. The fund primarily holds U.S.-listed equity securities across large, mid, and small capitalization companies, such as common stocks, preferred shares, and American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), with selective exposure to third-party exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and cash equivalents; top holdings as of late 2025 include NVIDIA Corp, Alphabet Inc Class C, Eli Lilly & Co, Broadcom Inc, Microsoft Corp, and GE Vernova Inc, spanning sectors like information technology (over 40%), financials, healthcare, and industrials. It emphasizes themes including climate change and clean energy, artificial intelligence and fintech, video gaming and social media, cannabis and online gambling, consumer brands, pet wellness, real estate disruption, biotechnology, and streaming entertainment. Launched on July 1, 2021, and listed on NYSE Arca, GK is issued by AdvisorShares Trust and sub-advised by Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management, a Los Angeles-based registered investment advisor founded in 2010 that manages billions in assets with a focus on technology, electric vehicles, consumer, media, and entertainment sectors. The fund, domiciled in the United States and available to U.S. investors, maintains assets under management of approximately $27-28 million, a net expense ratio of 0.76% (with a contractual cap at 0.75%), and daily transparent holdings, positioning it as a core growth equity allocation or sector-sleeve complement in diversified portfolios. In response to 2025 market volatility from tariff policies and economic shifts, GK's portfolio managers implemented strategic adjustments including risk reduction via increased cash reserves and gold exposure (e.g., iShares Gold Trust), a pivot from consumer discretionary to staples like Walmart, addition of Meta Platforms for AI allocation, reinstatement of CrowdStrike for cybersecurity and AI exposure, and expansion of digital assets to include Ethereum ETFs alongside Bitcoin. These moves supported a strong third-quarter 2025 performance of 9.84% (NAV), amid year-to-date gains of around 20%, while emphasizing active management to navigate geopolitical and inflationary pressures. GK remains non-diversified under federal law, concentrating in fewer than 35 high-conviction positions to capture macro trends.
