NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended February 29, 2000 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Retirement Government Money Market Portfolio (the fund) is a fund of
Fidelity Money Market Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an
open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware
business trust. The financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which require
management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of
the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant
accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost
and thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any
discount or premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for its fiscal year. The schedule of investments
includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, which includes amortization of
premium and accretion of discount, is accrued as earned.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
among the funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, along with
other affiliated entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company
(FMR), may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint
trading accounts. These balances are invested in one or more
repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury, Federal Agency,
and other obligations found satisfactory by FMR are transferred to an
account of the fund, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a bank
custodian. The securities are marked-to-market daily and maintained at
a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase
agreement (including accrued interest). FMR, the fund's investment
adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the
underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value
requirements stated above.
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. At all times that a reverse repurchase
agreement is outstanding, the fund identifies cash and liquid
securities as segregated in its custodian records with a value at
least equal to its obligation under the agreement. The average daily
balance during the period for which the reverse repurchase agreement
was outstanding amounted to $40,000,000. The weighted average interest
rate was 4.75%.
WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES. The fund may purchase or sell securities on a
when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the
customary settlement period for that security. The price of the
underlying securities is fixed at the time the transaction is
negotiated. The values of the securities purchased on a when-issued or
forward commitment basis are identified as such in the fund's schedule
of investments. The fund may receive compensation for interest forgone
in the purchase of a when-issued security. With respect to purchase
commitments, the fund identifies securities as segregated in its
records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment.
Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying
securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract,
or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political,
economic, or other factors.
3. JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT.
At the end of the period, the fund had 20% or more of its total
investments in repurchase agreements through a joint trading account.
These repurchase agreements were with entities whose creditworthiness
has been reviewed and found satisfactory by FMR. The investments in
repurchase agreements through the joint trading account are summarized
as follows:
SUMMARY OF JOINT TRADING
DATED FEBRUARY 3, 2000, DUE MARCH 15, 2000 5.81%
Number of dealers or banks 1
Maximum amount with one dealer or bank 100%
Aggregate principal amount of agreements $250,000,000
Aggregate maturity amount of agreements $251,654,236
Aggregate market value of transferred assets $256,531,251
Coupon rates of transferred assets 6.00% to 8.00%
Maturity dates of transferred assets 10/1/03 to 2/1/30

Coupon rates of transferred assets 0.00% to 14.05%
Maturity dates of transferred assets 3/8/00 to 11/1/38
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a fee
that is computed daily at an annual rate of .42% of the fund's average
net assets. FMR pays all other expenses, except the compensation of
the non-interested Trustees and certain exceptions such as interest,
taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. The
management fee paid to FMR by the fund is reduced by an amount equal
to the fees and expenses paid by the fund to the non-interested
Trustees.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the fund's investment sub-adviser, Fidelity
Investments Money Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR,
receives a fee from FMR of 50% of the management fee payable to FMR.
The fee is paid prior to any voluntary expense reimbursements which
may be in effect.
MONEY MARKET INSURANCE. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
SEC, the fund, along with other money market funds advised by FMR or
its affiliates, has entered into insurance agreements with FIDFUNDS
Mutual Limited (FIDFUNDS), an affiliated mutual insurance company.
FIDFUNDS provides limited coverage for certain loss events including
issuer default as to payment of principal or interest and bankruptcy
or insolvency of a credit enhancement provider. The insurance does not
cover losses resulting from changes in interest rates, ratings
downgrades or other market conditions. The fund may be subject to a
special assessment of up to approximately 2.5 times the fund's annual
gross premium if covered losses exceed certain levels. During the
period, FMR has borne the cost of the fund's premium payable to
FIDFUNDS.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
Through arrangements with the fund's custodian and transfer agent,
credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to
reduce a portion of the fund's expenses. During the period, the fund's
expenses were reduced by $624,490 under these arrangements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended February 29, 2000 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Retirement Money Market Portfolio (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Money Market Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited
number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act), as amended, as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Delaware business trust. The
financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles which require management to make
certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial
statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. As permitted under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, and
certain conditions therein, securities are valued initially at cost
and thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any
discount or premium.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for its fiscal year. The schedule of investments
includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income, which includes amortization of
premium and accretion of discount, is accrued as earned.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
among the funds in the trust.
DEFERRED TRUSTEE COMPENSATION. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the
Plan) non-interested Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and
may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, their annual
compensation. Deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar
amounts had been invested in shares of the fund or are invested in a
cross-section of other Fidelity money market funds. Deferred amounts
remain in the fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends are declared daily and paid
monthly from net interest income.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of
trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the
basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, along with
other affiliated entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company
(FMR), may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint
trading accounts. These balances are invested in one or more
repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury, Federal Agency,
and other obligations found satisfactory by FMR are transferred to an
account of the fund, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a bank
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - CONTINUED
custodian. The securities are marked-to-market daily and maintained at
a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase
agreement (including accrued interest). FMR, the fund's investment
adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the
underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value
requirements stated above.
INTERFUND LENDING PROGRAM. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the SEC, the fund, along with other registered investment companies
having management contracts with FMR, may participate in an interfund
lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility
allowing the fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other
participating funds.
WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES. The fund may purchase or sell securities on a
when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the
customary settlement period for that security. The price of the
underlying securities is fixed at the time the transaction is
negotiated. The fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in
the purchase of a when-issued security. With respect to purchase
commitments, the fund identifies securities as segregated in its
records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment.
Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying
securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract,
or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political,
economic, or other factors.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The fund is permitted to invest in securities
that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These
securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from
registration or to the public if the securities are registered.
Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations
and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult.
At the end of the period, restricted securities (excluding 144A
issues) amounted to $219,000,000 or 2.2% of net assets.
3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a fee
that is computed daily at an annual rate of .42% of the fund's average
net assets. FMR pays all other expenses, except the compensation of
the non-interested Trustees and certain exceptions such as interest,
taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. The
management fee paid to FMR by the fund is reduced by an amount equal
to the fees and expenses paid by the fund to the non-interested
Trustees.
SUB-ADVISER FEE. As the fund's investment sub-adviser, Fidelity
Investments Money Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR,
receives a fee from FMR of 50% of the management fee payable to FMR.
The fee is paid prior to any voluntary expense reimbursements which
may be in effect.
MONEY MARKET INSURANCE. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
SEC, the fund, along with other money market funds advised by FMR or
its affiliates, has
3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
MONEY MARKET INSURANCE - CONTINUED
entered into insurance agreements with FIDFUNDS Mutual Limited
(FIDFUNDS), an affiliated mutual insurance company. FIDFUNDS provides
limited coverage for certain loss events including issuer default as
to payment of principal or interest and bankruptcy or insolvency of a
credit enhancement provider. The insurance does not cover losses
resulting from changes in interest rates, ratings downgrades or other
market conditions. The fund may be subject to a special assessment of
up to approximately 2.5 times the fund's annual gross premium if
covered losses exceed certain levels. During the period, FMR has borne
the cost of the fund's premium payable to FIDFUNDS.
4. INTERFUND LENDING PROGRAM.
The fund participated in the interfund lending program as a lender.
The average daily loan balance during the period for which loans were
outstanding amounted to $ 6,013,000. The weighted average interest
rate was 5.38%. Interest earned from the interfund lending program
amounted to $1,796 and is included in interest income on the Statement
of Operations. At period end there were no interfund loans
outstanding.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
Through an arrangement with the fund's transfer agent, credits
realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a
portion of the fund's expenses. During the period, the fund's expenses
were reduced by $1,725,797 under this arrangement.
