                       E*TRADE S&P 500 INDEX ANNUAL REPORT

           FOR THE PERIOD FROM FEBRUARY 17, 1999 TO DECEMBER 31, 1999

DEAR E*TRADE FUNDS SHAREHOLDER,

We'd  like to take this  opportunity  to thank  all our  shareholders  for their
investment in the E*TRADE Family of Funds. We'd also like to welcome all our new
shareholders to the E*TRADE S&P 500 Index Fund (the "Fund").

For the fiscal year period from February 17, 1999  (inception  date of the Fund)
through December 31, 1999, the Fund returned 19.31%. Of course, past performance
is no guarantee of future results.  The investment return and principal value of
an investment will fluctuate,  and your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more
or less than their original cost. Performance reflects reinvestment of dividends
and other  earnings and also  reflects fee waivers in effect.  In the absence of
fee waivers, performance would be reduced.

THE YEAR IN REVIEW

The  investment  objective  of the Fund is to provide  investment  results  that
attempt to match the total return of the stocks  making up the Standard & Poor's
500 Composite Stock Price Index (the "S&P 500 Index"). The Fund seeks to achieve
its  investment  objective by  investing  all of its assets in the S&P 500 Index
Master Portfolio ("Master  Portfolio").  The Master Portfolio,  in turn, invests
substantially all of its assets in the same stocks and in substantially the same
percentages as the S&P 500 Index.

The fiscal year opened on a positive note for large-cap  stocks.  A healthy U.S.
economy and an appetite for technology stocks drove the market, with an emphasis
on rising  earnings  that left value stocks  largely  ignored in favor of growth
stocks.

During  the  months  of April  and May,  concern  surfaced  about an  overheated
economy.  Although unemployment figures remained benign,  consumer and wholesale
prices had begun to heat up. A recovery in European countries compounded worries
of potential inflation and corresponding Federal Reserve  intervention.  Markets
reflected this apprehension, as investors shunned growth stocks for value.

However,  worries over higher  interest  rates were  rekindled as many companies
released  favorable  earnings  reports in July. After reaching new highs on July
16, U.S.  equities  tumbled  through  the end of the third  quarter and into the
second week of October,  giving back some of the gains they had  accumulated for
the year.  Tightening  labor markets and strong domestic demand figures released
in August contributed to the decline.

October began on a negative note as high producer price reports provided further
indications of an overheated economy. However, the tide soon changed and markets
rebounded  sharply  during the second  half of the month and into the end of the
year.

GOING FORWARD

You should remember that past  performance is no guarantee of future returns and
the Fund may not be able to duplicate its strong 1999 performance.

We appreciate  your investment in the Fund. We are committed to provide you with
outstanding  services that may help you reach your financial goals. To that end,
we've recently launched a new E*TRADE Family of Funds site to make it easier for
you to find information to help you make investment  decisions.  Check it out at
http://etradefunds.etrade.com.

The financial statements for the period ended December 31, 1999 for the Fund are
provided  below.  We'd  like to  take  this  opportunity  to  remind  all of our
shareholders  that  investing  in  the  Fund  is  a  long-term  proposition  and
shareholders should not invest assets that will be needed in the near term.

Sincerely,

E*TRADE Funds

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 1999

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

E*TRADE S&P 500 Index Fund (the "Fund") is a diversified series of E*TRADE Funds
(the "Trust"), an open-end series management investment company registered under
the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  as amended.  The Trust is  organized as a
Delaware  business  trust and was formed on November 4, 1998. As of December 31,
1999, the Trust offered six series: the S&P 500 Index Fund, the Bond Index Fund,
the Extended  Market Index Fund,  the  International  Index Fund, the E-Commerce
Index Fund and the Technology Index Fund. These financial statements contain the
E*TRADE S&P 500 Index Fund.

The Fund's investment objective is to provide investment results that attempt to
match the total  return  of the  stocks  making  up the  Standard  & Pooris  500
Composite Stock Price Index.

"Standard & Poor's (REGISTRATION MARK)," "S&P (REGISTRATION MARK)" "S&P 500
(REGISTRATION MARK)", "Standard & Poor's 500 (REGISTRATION MARK)", and "500" are
trademarks of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. and have been licensed for use by
E*TRADE Asset Management, Inc. for use in connection with the Fund. The Fund is
not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by Standard & Poor's and Standard &
Poor's makes no representation regarding the advisability of investing in the
Fund.

The  following  is a  summary  of  significant  accounting  policies  which  are
consistently   followed  by  the  Fund  in  the  preparation  of  its  financial
statements,  and which are in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles for investment companies.  The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles requires management to
make estimates and  assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and the reported amounts of
revenue and expenses  during the reporting  period.  Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

PRINCIPLES OF ACCOUNTING

The Fund uses the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes.

INVESTMENT POLICY AND SECURITY VALUATION

The Fund is a "feeder" fund in a "master-feeder" structure. Instead of investing
directly  in  individual  securities,  a feeder  fund,  which is  offered to the
public,  invests all of its assets in a master portfolio that has  substantially
the same  investment  objective as the feeder fund.  It is the master  portfolio
that  actually  invests  in the  individual  securities.  The Fund  pursues  its
investment  objective by investing all of its assets in the S&P 500 Index Master
Portfolio (the "Master  Portfolio"),  a separate series of the Master Investment
Portfolio ("MIP"), a registered  open-end  management  investment  company.  The
value of the Fund's  investment  in the  Master  Portfolio  reflects  the Fund's
interest in the net assets of the Master Portfolio. As of December 31, 1999, the
value  of the  Fund's  investment  in the  Master  Portfolio  was  0.97%  of the
outstanding interests of the Master Portfolio.

The Fund's  investment in the Master  Portfolio is valued at the net asset value
of the Master  Portfoliois shares held by the Fund. The equity securities of the
Master  Portfolio  are valued at the last  reported  sale  price on the  primary
securities  exchange or national  securities market on which such securities are
traded.  Securities not listed on an exchange or national  securities market, or
securities  in which there was no last reported  sales price,  are valued at the
most  recent  bid  prices.   Debt   securities  are  generally   traded  in  the
over-the-counter  market and are valued at a price  deemed best to reflect  fair
value as  quoted  by  dealers  who make  markets  in those  securities  or by an
independent pricing source.  U.S. Government  obligations are valued at the last
reported bid price.  Debt  securities  maturing in 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost,  which  approximates  market value.  Any securities,  restricted
securities  or  other  assets  for  which  market  quotations  are  not  readily
available,  are valued at fair value as  determined  in good faith in accordance
with policies approved by MIP's Board of Trustees.

<PAGE>


SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION

Security  transactions are accounted for by the Master Portfolio on the date the
securities  are  purchased or sold (trade  date).  Revenue is  recognized by the
Master  Portfolio as follows:  dividend  income is recognized on the ex-dividend
date and interest income is recognized on a daily accrual basis.  Realized gains
and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities delivered.
Bond  discounts and premiums are  amortized as required by the Internal  Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").  All net  investment  income and realized
and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Master Portfolio are allocated as
required by the Code.

The  performance  of the Fund is  directly  affected by the  performance  of the
Master Portfolio.  The financial  statements of the Master Portfolio,  including
the Portfolio of Investments,  are included  elsewhere in this report and should
be read in conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

Distributions  to  shareholders  from  net  investment  income  of the  Fund are
declared and distributed  quarterly.  Distributions to shareholders from any net
realized  capital  gains are declared  and  distributed  annually,  generally in
December.  Such  distributions  to shareholders  are recorded on the ex-dividend
date.

Income and capital gain  distributions  are determined in accordance with income
tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting  principles.
These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currency
transactions,  market  discount,  losses  deferred  to wash sales and excise tax
regulations.  Permanent book and tax basis  differences  relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital and may impact
net investment income per share. Undistributed net investment income may include
temporary  book and tax basis  differences  which will  reverse in a  subsequent
period.  Any taxable  income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed
in the following year.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The Fund is treated as a separate entity from each other series of the Trust for
federal  income  tax  purposes.  It is the  policy of the Fund to  qualify  as a
regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. If
so qualified,  the Fund must distribute  annually all of its investment  company
taxable  income and any net capital  gains  (taking  into  account  capital loss
carryforwards)  sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal
income and  excise  taxes.  Accordingly,  no  provision  for  federal  taxes was
required at December 31, 1999.

The following reclassifications,  which have no impact on the net asset value of
the Fund,  were made in order to present  the Fund's  capital  accounts on a tax
basis:

Paid-in Capital Increase
Undistributed Net Investment Income Increase

                                                       Accumulated Undistributed
          Paid-in  Undistributed Net Investment     Net Realized Gain on Sale of
 Capital Increase               Income Increase             Investments Decrease
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
             $512                          $222                             $734

REDEMPTION FEES

Shares  held in the Fund less than four  months  are  subject  to a fee equal to
$24.95,  (changing  to 0.50% of the  proceeds  of the  redeemed  shares for fund
shares  purchased  after  January 21, 2000).  The fee,  which is retained by the
Fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital.

Master  Portfoliois  advisory  fees,  described  above,  in  addition to income,
expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses.

The  Investment  Advisor  also  provides  administrative  services  to the Fund,
pursuant to an administrative services agreement  ("Administrative  Agreement").

reviewing the Fund's  contracted  services and  expenditures;  and report to the
Board of Trustees  concerning  its  activities  pursuant  to the  Administrative
Agreement.  The Fund pays the Investment  Advisor a monthly fee calculated at an

Fund. The Investment  Advisor  voluntarily agreed to reimburse such expenses for
the period February 17, 1999  (commencement of operations)  through December 31,
1999.

3. PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED

As of December 31, 1999, the Master Portfolio had loaned securities,  which were
collateralized by cash, money market mutual funds and repurchase agreements. The
Master Portfolio receives  transaction fees for providing services in connection
with the  securities  lending  program.  The risks to the  Master  Portfolio  of
securities lending are that the borrower may not provide  additional  collateral
when required or return the securities  when due. The value of the securities on
loan  and the  value of the  related  collateral  are  disclosed  in the  Master
Portfoliois financial statements.

S&P 500 INDEX MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Significant Accounting Policies

         Master Investment Portfolio (`'MIP") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940,  as amended (the `'1940  Act"),  as an open-end  management
investment company. MIP was organized on October 20, 1993 as a Delaware business
trust pursuant to an Agreement and  Declaration of Trust dated May 14, 1993, and
had no operations  prior to March 1, 1994.  MIP  currently  issues the following
separate  portfolios  (the `'Master  Portfolios"),  the Asset  Allocation,  Bond
Index, LifePath Income (formerly iLifePath 2000i), LifePath 2010, LifePath 2020,
LifePath  2030,  LifePath 2040,  Money Market,  S&P 500 Index,  Extended  Index,
International  Index and U.S.  Equity Index Master  Portfolios.  These financial
statements relate to S&P 500 Index Master Portfolio (the iMaster Portfolioi).

         The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed
by MIP in the preparation of its financial statements,  and such policies are in
conformity  with  generally  accepted   accounting   principles  for  investment
companies.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect the  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

         Effective  February 10,  1999,  the Board of Trustees of MIP approved a
change in fiscal  year-end of the Master  Portfolio from February 28 to December
31. Accordingly, the financial statements are presented for the ten-month period
ended December 31, 1999.

         SECURITY VALUATION

         The equity  securities  of the Master  Portfolio are valued at the last
reported sale price on the primary  securities  exchange or national  securities
market on which such securities are traded. Securities not listed on an exchange
or national securities market, or securities in which there was no last reported
sales  price,  are valued at the most recent bid  prices.  Debt  securities  are
generally traded in the over-the-counter market and are valued at a price deemed
best to  reflect  fair  value as quoted by  dealers  who make  markets  in those
securities or by an independent pricing source. U.S. Government  obligations are
valued at the last reported bid price.  Debt  securities  maturing in 60 days or
less are  valued  at  amortized  cost,  which  approximates  market  value.  Any
securities,  restricted  securities or other assets for which market  quotations
are not readily available,  are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
in accordance with policies approved by MIP's Board of Trustees.

         SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION

         Security  transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are
purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend
date, and interest income is recognized on a daily accrual basis. Realized gains
or losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities  delivered.
Bond  discounts  and  premiums are accreted or  amortized,  respectively,  under
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the iCodei).


<PAGE>


         FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

         The Master  Portfolio  intends to qualify as a partnership  for federal
income tax purposes. The Master Portfolio,  therefore, believes that it will not
be subject to any  federal  income  tax on its income and net  realized  capital
gains (if any). However,  each investor in the Master Portfolio will be taxed on
its  allocable  share of the  partnership's  income  and  capital  gains for the
purposes of determining its federal income tax liability.  The  determination of
such share will be made in accordance with the applicable sections of the Code.

         It  is  intended  that  the  Master  Portfolio's  assets,   income  and
allocations  will be managed in such a way that a regulated  investment  company
investing in the Master  Portfolio will be able to satisfy the  requirements  of
Subchapter  M of the  Code,  assuming  that  the  regulated  investment  company
invested all of its assets in the Master Portfolio.

         FUTURES CONTRACTS

         The Master  Portfolio  may  purchase  long  futures  contracts  to gain
exposure to market  changes as this may be more efficient or cost effective than
actually buying the securities.  A futures contract is an agreement  between two
parties  to buy and sell a  security  at a set  price  on a  future  date and is
exchange traded. Upon entering into a futures contract,  the Master Portfolio is
required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash, U.S.  Government  securities
or other  high-quality  debt securities equal to the minimum  `'initial  margin"
requirements  of the exchange.  Pursuant to the contract,  the Master  Portfolio
agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily
fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as
ivariation  margini and are recorded by the Master Portfolio as unrealized gains
or losses.  When the contract is closed,  the Master Portfolio records a gain or
loss equal to the  difference  between the value of the  contract at the time it
was  opened and the value at the time it was  closed.  Pursuant  to  regulations
and/or published positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Master
Portfolio is required to segregate  cash,  U.S.  Government  securities  or high
quality, liquid debt instruments in connection with long futures transactions in
an amount  generally  equal to the  entire  futures  contract  amount.  Risks of
entering into futures  contracts  include the  possibility  that there may be an
illiquid  market  and  that a  change  in the  value  of the  contracts  may not
correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. As of December
31, 1999,  the Master  Portfolio had the following  open long futures  contracts
outstanding:

         The S&P 500 Index Master Portfolio has pledged to brokers U.S. Treasury
Bills for initial margin requirements with a par value of $15,750,000.

         REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

         Transactions  involving  purchases of  securities  under  agreements to
resell such securities at a specified price and time  ("repurchase  agreements")
are treated as collateralized  financing  transactions and are recorded at their
contracted resale amounts. These repurchase agreements,  if any, are detailed in
the Master  Portfolio's  Portfolio  of  Investments.  The  advisor to the Master
Portfolio  may  pool  the  Master  Portfolio's  cash and  invest  in  repurchase
agreements entered into by the other Master  Portfolios.  The Master Portfolio's
prospectus requires that the cash investments be fully  collateralized  based on
values that are marked to market daily.  The  collateral is generally held by an
agent bank under a tri-party  agreement.  It is the advisor's  responsibility to
value  collateral  daily and to obtain  additional  collateral  as  necessary to
maintain  the  value at equal to or  greater  than  102% of  market  value.  The
repurchase  agreements entered into on December 31, 1999 by the Master Portfolio
are collateralized by U.S. Government securities.

2.       AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

         Pursuant to an Investment  Advisory Contract with the Master Portfolio,
Barclays Global Fund Advisors (iBGFAi) provides  investment  guidance and policy
direction in connection  with the management of the Master  Portfoliois  assets.
BGFA is entitled to receive 0.05% of the average daily net assets of the S&P 500
Index  Master  Portfolio  as  compensation  for  advisory  services.  BGFA is an
indirect subsidiary of Barclays Bank PLC.

         Investors  Bank & Trust Company  ("IBT") serves as the custodian to the
Master  Portfolio.  IBT will not be entitled to receive  fees for its  custodial
services  so long as it is  entitled  to  receive a separate  fee from  Barclays
Global  Investors,  N.A.  ("BGI") for its services as  Sub-Administrator  of the
Master Portfolio.

         Stephens Inc. ("Stephens"),  is the sponsor and placement agent for the
Master Portfolio.

         The MIP has entered into administration  services arrangements with BGI
and Stephens, as  co-administrators,  who have agreed jointly to provide general
administration   services  to  the  Master   Portfolio   such  as  managing  and
coordinating  third-party  service  relationships.  BGI  and  Stephens  are  not
entitled to  compensation  for providing  administration  services to the Master
Portfolio.  BGI and Stephens may delegate certain of their administration duties
to sub-administrators.

         Certain officers and trustees of MIP are also officers of Stephens.  As
of December 31, 1999, these officers of Stephens collectively owned less than 1%
of the Master Portfoliois outstanding beneficial interests.

3.       INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

4.       PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED

         As of December 31, 1999,  the Master  Portfolio  had loaned  securities
which were  collateralized  by money market mutual funds.  The Master  Portfolio

and the value of the related collateral were as follows:

                                           Value of                     Value of
