About HFDSX
Hartford Schroders US MidCap Opportunities Fund Class R4 is an actively managed mutual fund focused on achieving capital appreciation by investing primarily in mid-cap U.S. companies. The fund emphasizes identifying three types of companies—those offering capital growth, those providing lower downside volatility, and those with unique, idiosyncratic growth characteristics. Its strategy seeks to capitalize on the growth potential of mid-sized firms, which often combine the stability of established operations with exceptional growth prospects. Sub-advised by Schroders, a global investment firm with over two centuries of experience, the fund leverages extensive research to select a diversified portfolio—typically holding around 65-66 positions across sectors such as consumer discretionary, energy, consumer staples, and others. With a high active share and a moderate portfolio turnover rate, the fund distinguishes itself through its active approach to stock selection. The fund primarily holds equity securities and aims for a balance of risk and return, making it a core option for investors seeking exposure to the dynamic mid-cap segment of the U.S. equity market.
