SAN ANTONIO—August 23, 2011—U.S. Global Investors, Inc. (Nasdaq: GROW), a boutique registered investment adviser specializing in natural resources and emerging markets, recently launched a trio of mobile applications to help investors stay connected with U.S. Global while on the go.
“Keeping current on market events is essential for global investors these days,” says Frank Holmes, company CEO and Chief Investment Officer. “iPhone, Blackberry and iPad users can now access our insights on gold, natural resources, emerging markets and infrastructure with a swipe of their finger. These new mobile apps allow our shareholders to bring along our award-winning research as they move about the world.”
In addition to accessing the weekly Investor Alert newsletter on the go, Blackberry and iPhone users can also catch up on Frank Holmes’ blog “Frank Talk,” join the conversation on our social media channels and browse our latest videos with portfolio managers.
The iPad app is even more interactive with the world U.S. Global invests in. Not only does the app update with the latest Frank Talks, Investor Alerts and videos, but users can also check out slideshows of our research trips around the world, read the latest news, see interviews from Bloomberg TV and other news media, and learn more about the funds.
An app for Android users will be launched later in 2011.
To design and build the lineup of mobile applications, U.S. Global Investors partnered with the creative interactive agency, Sweb Development. Located in San Antonio, Sweb has quickly developed a preeminent position in interactive marketing. The company was named to Entrepreneur Magazine’s “100 Companies to Watch” list in 2010 and has been featured in USA Today, BusinessWeek and TIME.
“Mobile applications are an extension of any company. Latest research shows that internet usage from mobile devices has surpassed that of laptops. To stay current and in reach of their clients, a company must have a mobile strategy. U.S. Global Investors has entered the app space boldly with a valuable offering for everyone,” says Magaly Chocano, CEO of Sweb Development.
