SAN ANTONIO--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--U.S. Global Investors (Nasdaq: GROW), a boutique investment adviser specializing in natural resources and emerging markets, will host a webcast titled, "Global Infrastructure Gets a Domestic Boost" on Monday, January 26 at 11:00 a.m. Central Time.

Infrastructure has become a hot topic worldwide. In the U.S., President Obama has proposed big spending on domestic infrastructure improvements as a key part of his economic stimulus plan.

We see infrastructure as a broad theme that includes both growth and income opportunities, in the developed world and emerging markets. Our infrastructure focus is on the global boom in construction, involving companies that supply basic materials, metals, energy and more.

Frank Holmes, CEO and chief investment officer, will host this free webcast, joined by the Global MegaTrends Fund portfolio management team. The Global MegaTrends Fund (MEGAX) was one of the first U.S. mutual funds to recognize infrastructure as a distinct investment theme.

A question-and-answer session will follow the presentation.
