Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

June 27, 1996 Sale of Securities

         On June 27, 1996 U.S.  (United  Services) Global  Investors,  Inc. (the
"Registrant"  or "USGI")  reduced its investment in government  notes  ("Notes")
financed by reverse repurchase agreements with various broker/dealers by selling
an additional $14.805 million (par value) in Notes in open market  transactions.
These  transactions  strengthen the  Registrant's  balance sheet and improve its
financial  ratios and cash flow.  Going  forward,  the Registrant is expected to
save  annual  interest  costs  on debt  that was used to  finance  the  Notes of
approximately $149,000. Notes totaling $130.525 million were acquired during the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1995. To date, USGI has reduced its investment in the
Notes by approximately 80%.

         This transaction  resulted in Registrant  recording a net realized loss
of $23,000  before tax ($0.01  per  share)  which it will  recognize  during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1996.

         As reflected in a Special Report on Form 8-K filed June 12, 1996,  USGI
reduced its investment in Notes by selling  $28.745 million (par value) Notes in
open market  transactions  on May 28,  1996 and June 10,  1996.  These  previous
transactions resulted in interest savings of approximately $320,000 and resulted
in the Registrant recording a net realized loss of $50,000 before tax ($0.01 per
share) which it will recognize during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996.

         The combined  effect of all of these  transactions  (May 28, 1996, June
10, 1996, and June 27, 1996) was an interest savings of approximately  $469,000.
In addition,  the company will  recognize a net realized loss of $73,000  ($0.01
per share).
