ITEM 2.           ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

MAY 28, 1996 AND JUNE 10, 1996 SALE OF SECURITIES

     On May 28, 1996 and June 10, 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  $28.745  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  $320,000.  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 68%.

     These transactions  resulted in 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.

ITEM 7.           FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS.

     (b)  Proforma financial  information:  Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet
          and Statement of Operations of Registrant at March 31, 1996.

     (c)  Exhibits.

          None
