U.S. Global Investors, Inc. operates as a boutique investment management firm specializing in niche and underserved market segments. Headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, the company manages and markets a family of mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) focused on natural resources, emerging markets, and other specialized sectors. The firm's flagship offerings include the U.S. Global Jets ETF (JETS), which tracks the performance of the global airline industry, and gold and precious metals funds that serve investors seeking exposure to commodity-linked equities. Founded in 1968, U.S. Global Investors distinguishes itself through concentrated investment strategies and a focus on sectors experiencing significant structural changes or growth opportunities. The company generates revenue primarily through investment advisory fees based on assets under management, which fluctuate with market conditions and fund performance. In recent years, the firm has emphasized its ETF business, with JETS becoming particularly prominent following increased interest in aviation recovery post-pandemic. U.S. Global Investors maintains a relatively lean organizational structure, allowing it to operate with lower overhead compared to larger asset managers. The company's investment philosophy emphasizes fundamental research, sector expertise, and long-term value creation in specialized market niches where management believes it can deliver differentiated insights and investment outcomes for shareholders.
