About WFDDX
The Allspring Discovery SMID Cap Growth Fund – Class Admin is a U.S. equity mutual fund designed to seek long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in small- and mid-capitalization growth companies. The fund's strategy centers on identifying businesses positioned on the "right side of change," often characterized by innovative models or superior fundamentals, and it employs a bottom-up research process known as "Surround the Company" to uncover opportunities across various market environments.
