Our universe is a group of stocks in which we have reasonable confidence that customer demand for their products and services will remain constant in both difficult and favorable economic times.

Income and growth-oriented equity investors should have the potential to keep up with the rising cost of living. These stocks are selected from research that aligns with the solutions and strategies in the Wells Fargo Investment Institute.
