                             Salomon Smith Barney
                      Global Diversified Futures Fund L.P.
                                  January 2000


The redemption value per unit for the SSB Global  Diversified  Futures Fund L.P.
was  $955.52  per  unit at the end of  January,  down  0.1%  from  the  close of
December.

With victory declared over the Y2K bug, global  financial and commodity  markets
returned to either previously  established trends or experienced sharp reversals
from year-end price moves.

Gains were experienced primarily in energy trading,  currencies,  and short-term
interest  rates.  The energy  sector  continued  to trade  higher on the back of
colder  weather in the  Northeast and a  surprisingly  high degree of compliance
with production limits by OPEC members. Inventories are down, demand and anxiety
up. Crude and heating oil markets were the primary drivers of positive results.

As the U.S. economy continued to outperform  global  economies,  the U.S. dollar
rose to new contract  highs against the euro, the British pound and the Japanese
yen.  Long  positions   provided  profits  for  the  Fund's   advisors.   Rising
expectations for higher short-term interest rates also helped short positions in
U.S. interest rate contract  positions.  Inflationary  rumblings carried over to
the global  equity  markets  which  resulted in trading  losses for global stock
market indices. Losses were also experienced in positions in various segments of
the U.S. equity market indices.

The metals and grains  markets were mixed with slight gains in precious and base
metals offset by losses in agricultural positions.
