"The EMA GARP Fund returned a stellar 174.48% in 2025, riding a secular macro pivot toward sound money assets. The fund expects massive further gains in gold ($8k-$10k/oz) and silver ($300-$500/oz) due to relentless monetary debasement and acute physical shortages."
The EMA GARP Fund delivered an exceptional return of 174.48% for the full year 2025, driven by a structural macro shift toward gold and silver. The letter outlines how the Federal Reserve's pivot back to money printing in December 2025 (launching $40B/month in QE rebranded as 'Reserves Management') and the Trump administration's aggressive fiscal spending and dovish monetary pressures are triggering a secular inflationary environment. The fund highlights severe physical shortages in the silver market, driven by green energy, electric vehicles, and AI data centers, which is resulting in unprecedented delivery demands on the COMEX and LBMA. Furthermore, the managers explain that gold and silver miners remain remarkably cheap compared to the underlying physical metals, representing a highly asymmetric investment opportunity due to massive, unappreciated profit margin expansion.
