About WLASFX

The Lord Abbett SMID Cap Equity Trust II Fund is a mutual fund designed to pursue long-term capital growth by investing primarily in the equities of small- and mid-sized U.S. companies. Its strategy centers on identifying promising businesses within the small- and mid-cap segments—companies that often drive innovation and growth in diverse sectors of the American economy. The fund uses value-oriented investment criteria, seeking stocks that are considered undervalued relative to their fundamental prospects. This approach provides investors exposure to a market segment that sits between the often volatile small-cap and the more established large-cap universes, aiming to capture both growth potential and manageable risk. The fund benchmarks its performance against the Russell 2500 Total Return Index, reflecting its focus on a broad universe of U.S. small- and mid-cap equities. By targeting this dynamic segment, the Lord Abbett SMID Cap Equity Trust II Fund plays a key role for investors looking to diversify their portfolios with access to the growth opportunities of smaller established companies, while leveraging professional management and research-driven selection processes.
