U.S. Global Investors, World Gold Council To Make Case For Investing In Gold

U.S. Global Investors, Inc. (Nasdaq: GROW), a boutique registered investment adviser specializing in natural resources and emerging markets, and the World Gold Council (WGC), the global authority on gold, will host an upcoming webcast titled A Case for Gold Investing . The webcast will be held on Tuesday, September 6, 2011, at 4:15pm ET (3:15pm CT).

“Gold’s naysayers have been calling gold a bubble since prices reached $500 an ounce,” says Frank Holmes, U.S. Global Investors CEO and chief investment officer. “Those people are underestimating the Love Trade, one of gold’s key drivers, which is burning bright in Asia.”

The special web event will feature Frank Holmes and Jason Toussaint, managing director of the U.S. and Investment for the WGC.
