Ross Gerber is a fund manager at Gerber Kawasaki. According to their webpage, they have over $650 Million in assets under management. Given Gerber's recent comments on social media, one must wonder if he has any Trump supporters as clients.
In a now-deleted Tweet, Ross Gerber Tweeted from the official, verified @GerberKawasaki account:
"If you are hosting or attending the Trump fundraiser in LA we will identify who you are to the media and public. We will boycott your business'."
Mr. Gerber of course has every First Amendment right to dox and boycott people. However, as a fund manager, he owes certain fiduciary duties to his clients. Do any of his clients support Trump, and if so, should he disclose this hatred he has for Trump supporters to these clients?
It's fair to ask whether Gerber's bias against Trump supporters influences the advice he gives to his Trump-supporting clients.
In another deleted Tweet, Gerber advocated blocking a presidential motorcade. (Gerber has made his account private.)
His Tweet read in part: "We need to get everyone out on the streets and stop his motorcade. Please help RT."
Although Gerber claims he wants to follow the law, he doesn't seem to know that blocking a presidential motorcade is illegal.
I received no reply to an email asking whether or not an animus towards Trump supporters is a material fact that should be disclosed to existing Gerber Kawasaki clients and the investing public.
