U.S. Global Investors, Inc. is a boutique investment advisor specializing in emerging markets and natural resources. Our portfolio managers travel the earth researching opportunities and evaluating risk, all in the pursuit of exceptional performance for our funds.

Explore our 13 no-load mutual funds, ranging from natural resources, emerging markets and infrastructure, to money market, bond and domestic funds. We believe that we are specially qualified to be an integral part of your investment strategy.

Global Resources Fund (PSPFX)

The Global Resources Fund takes a diversified approach to the natural resources sector by investing in energy and basic materials. The fund invests in companies involved in the exploration, production and processing of petroleum, natural gas, coal, alternative energies, chemicals, mining, iron and steel, and paper and forest products, and can invest in any part of the world.

Gold and Precious Metals Fund (USERX)

The Gold and Precious Metals Fund is the first-no load gold fund in the U.S. We have a history as pioneers in portfolio management in this specialized sector. Our team brings valuable background in geology and mining finance, important to understanding the technical side of the business.

The fund focuses on producers, companies currently pulling gold or other precious minerals out of the ground. These companies, often called “seniors,” generally have the largest market caps in the mining sector.

World Precious Minerals Fund (UNWPX)

The World Precious Minerals Fund complements our Gold and Precious Metals Fund by giving investors increased exposure to junior and intermediate mining companies for added growth potential. With a high level of expertise in this specialized sector, our portfolio management team includes professionals with experience in geology, mineral resources and mining finance.

China Region Fund (USCOX)

The China Region Fund invests in one of the world’s fastest-growing regions. The China region has experienced many changes since the fund opened in 1994 but we believe the region continues to hold further investment opportunities.

Many countries in the region possess characteristics similar to the United States prior to the industrial revolution: a thriving, young workforce, migration from rural to urban areas and shifting sentiment toward consumption.

Eastern European Fund (EUROX)

The Eastern European Fund focuses on a region that is still in the early stages of industrial, economic and market development in the post-Soviet era. The region is rich in natural resources and many of the countries have only recently begun to embrace capitalist government policies.

Global Emerging Markets Fund (GEMFX)

The Global Emerging Markets Fund offers a diversified portfolio of investments in emerging markets around the world. Rapid economic growth is taking place in rising powerhouses Brazil, Russia, India and China, and other emerging markets. Truly global in its approach, the fund invests in developing countries from nearly every continent.

Global MegaTrends Fund (MEGAX)

The Global MegaTrends Fund seeks large-scale and sustainable growth opportunities as evidenced by major capital expenditures in a sector, country, or region. We’ve identified global infrastructure as such a megatrend, making it the key focus for the fund’s investments.

Unlike competing infrastructure funds, the Global MegaTrends Fund takes a “picks and shovels” approach. This means not only investing in particular projects but also in the tools, equipment, companies and people that are needed to build or service a project.

We see infrastructure as a broad theme that includes both growth and income opportunities, in emerging markets and the developed world. Within the infrastructure megatrend there are many promising investment opportunities in companies that supply basic materials, metals, energy and a wide range of services.

All American Equity Fund (GBTFX)

The All American Equity Fund invests in the growth of America by seeking “All American” companies with the best prospects for growth.

Offering the opportunity to invest right here at home, often in well-recognized names, the fund invests at least 80 percent of its assets in “All American” companies.

The portfolio management team uses a variety of investment strategies to select companies identified as having superior growth, profitability and quality relative to companies in the same industry.

Holmes Growth Fund (ACBGX)

The Holmes Growth Fund seeks to identify those companies that have the greatest potential for growth. The portfolio management team uses a variety of investment strategies to search for companies suitable for investment in the fund. The team looks for companies that have proven management and sound financial strength, and whose stock price is low in light of the company’s earnings and cash flow.

Tax Free Fund (USUTX)

The Tax Free Fund invests in municipal bonds issued by state and local governments across the country, with the goal of consistent superior performance in the municipal arena. The Tax Free Fund invests in bonds that the portfolio management team believes will perform well in the long run, with a focus on providing a higher level of tax-free income.

Near-Term Tax Free Fund (NEARX)

The Near-Term Tax Free Fund invests in municipal bonds with relatively short maturity. The fund seeks to provide tax-free monthly income and stability by investing in debt securities issued by state and local governments from across the country.

U.S. Government Securities Savings Fund (UGSXX)

The U.S. Government Securities Savings Fund is designed to be used as an investment where you can park funds needed for a financial goal or as a refuge when you need safety of principal. The fund accrues dividends daily and pays them to you monthly. Its yield will reflect the current market rates of government securities.

U.S. Treasury Securities Cash Fund (USTXX)

The U.S. Treasury Securities Cash Fund seeks to offer a high degree of safety for your savings plus the convenience of check writing. The fund accrues dividends daily and pays them to you monthly.

Please consider carefully a fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. For this and other important information, obtain a fund prospectus by clicking here or by calling 1-800-US-FUNDS (1-800-873-8637). Read it carefully before investing. Distributed by U.S. Global Brokerage, Inc. With respect to the money market funds, an investment in a money market fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although money market funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these funds.

Read additional important information.

Tax-exempt income is federal income tax free. A portion of this income may be subject to state and local income taxes, and if applicable, may subject certain investors to the Alternative Minimum Tax as well. Each tax free fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in securities that pay taxable interest. Income or fund distributions attributable to capital gains are usually subject to both state and federal income taxes. Bond funds are subject to interest-rate risk; their value declines as interest rates rise. The tax free funds may be exposed to risks related to a concentration of investments in a particular state or geographic area. These investments present risks resulting from changes in economic conditions of the region or issuer.

Gold, precious metals, and precious minerals funds may be susceptible to adverse economic, political or regulatory developments due to concentrating in a single theme. The prices of gold, precious metals, and precious minerals are subject to substantial price fluctuations over short periods of time and may be affected by unpredicted international monetary and political policies. We suggest investing no more than 5% to 10% of your portfolio in these sectors.

Foreign and emerging market investing involves special risks such as currency fluctuation and less public disclosure, as well as economic and political risk. By investing in a specific geographic region, a regional fund’s returns and share price may be more volatile than those of a less concentrated portfolio.

The Eastern European Fund invests more than 25% of its investments in companies principally engaged in the oil & gas or banking industries. The risk of concentrating investments in this group of industries will make the fund more susceptible to risk in these industries than funds which do not concentrate their investments in an industry and may make the fund’s performance more volatile.

Because the Global Resources Fund concentrates its investments in a specific industry, the fund may be subject to greater risks and fluctuations than a portfolio representing a broader range of industries.

Morningstar Ratings are based on risk-adjusted return. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted-average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Past performance does not guarantee future results. For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating? based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund’s monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.)
