SUPPLEMENT DATED FEBRUARY 11, 2000
TO PROSPECTUS DATED MAY 20, 1999
The following information amends the information contained in the Prospectus
on page 1 under 'Risk/Return Summary-Investment Objective and Principal
Strategies' and on page 8 under 'How the Funds Invest-Investment Objective and
Policies-Division of Assets':
Prudential Technology Fund has two separate portfolios, the 'Strategically
Managed' portfolio and the 'Enhanced Index' portfolio. The Strategically
Managed portfolio holds those equity-related securities in which the portfolio
managers have the highest confidence. The portfolio managers use fundamental and
quantitative analyses to select individual securities.
Each reference in the Prospectus to Prudential Technology Fund's
'Concentrated' portfolio is changed to the 'Strategically Managed' portfolio.
