NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--The DWS Global Commodities Stock Fund, Inc. (NYSE:GCS) (the

   The DWS Global Commodities Stock Fund, Inc. (NYSE:GCS) is a
non-diversified, closed-end investment company. The Fund invests in
equity and commodities-linked securities of companies in
commodities-related industries or issuers whose value is tied to the
price of certain commodities or commodities related indexes. The
investment objective of the Fund is capital appreciation with total
return as a secondary objective. Its shares are listed on the New York
Stock Exchange under the symbol "GCS".

   Future earnings of the Fund can not be guaranteed. For more
information on the Fund, please contact a representative at (800)
349-4281, or visit us on the web at www.cef.dws-scudder.com for
updated information on the Fund.

   Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously
offered. There is a one time public offering and once issued, shares
of closed-end funds are sold in the open market through a stock
exchange. Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount to
net asset value. The price of the fund's shares is determined by a
number of factors, several of which are beyond the control of the
fund. Therefore, the fund cannot predict whether its shares will trade
at, below or above net asset value.

   Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investments in
funds involve risk. Some funds have more risk than others. These
include funds that allow exposure to or otherwise concentrate
investments in certain sectors, geographic regions, security types,
market capitalization or foreign securities (e.g., political or
economic instability, which can be accentuated in emerging market
countries).
