                       Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P.
                                  October 2000


The redemption value of Salomon Smith Barney  Diversified 2000 Futures Fund L.P.
was $964.21 per unit at the end of October,
up +1.1% from the previous month.

Markets  stabilized  in October  after the  turmoil of  September  and  provided
improved trading opportunities for the Fund's advisors.

The  currency  markets  produced  the  greatest  gains for the month as the U.S.
dollar  continued  its  strength  against  European,  Pacific  basin  and  Asian
currencies.  Most  successful were positions in the Australian  dollar,  British
pound, Euro and the Japanese yen.

The respective interest rate markets were marginally  profitable as U.S. markets
were stable but the  international  markets were more  volatile and ended with a
slight  overall  loss.  The energy  markets  were  mixed as crude oil  positions
produced  profits  while the heating oil and natural gas markets  became  highly
volatile in the wake of a shifting weather patterns. Copper prices reversed from
prior trends and moved to new lows suggesting that the higher interest rates may
be having an effect on the high growth U.S. economy.

Also  reflecting  an impending  economic  slowdown were the global stock markets
which  continued  the  second  half of the  year in  negative  territory.  Light
positions in these markets were unprofitable for the Fund's advisors.

November is  expected to be a pivotal  month as  commodity  trends  appear to be
stabilizing and financial markets remain soft.  Numerous variables can shape the
upcoming months  including,  continued unrest in the Middle East compounding the
global  energy  shortage,  instability  in the  equity  markets,  and  finally a
resolution  to the U.S.  presidential  election.  Each of these  factors has the
ability  to  influence   market  prices   significantly   and  produce  increase
opportunities for the Fund.
