$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Destiny I: Class O on September 30, 1989. As the chart
shows, by September 30, 1999, the value of the investment would have
grown to $51,928 - a 419.28% increase on the initial investment. For
comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000
investment would have grown to $47,344 - a 373.44% increase.

The charts above show Destiny I: Class O total returns, which include
changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital
gains. The fund's cumulative total returns and average annual total
returns do not include the effects of the separate sales charges and
custodian fees assessed through Destiny Plans I: O (the Plans); the
figures provided for a "$50/month 15-year plan" illustrate the fund's
performance adjusted to reflect fees and sales charges assessed by the
Plans. The illustrations assume an initial investment at the beginning
of each period shown. Because the illustrations assume yearly lump sum
investments, they do not reflect what investors would have earned had
they made regular monthly investments over the period. As shares of
the funds may be acquired only through the Plans, investors should
consult the Plans' prospectus for more complete information on the
impact of the separate charges and fees applicable to each Plan. The
rate (%) of deductions decreases proportionately as Plan sizes
increase. Figures for the S&P 500, a market capitalization-weighted
index of common stocks, include reinvestment of dividends.
All performance numbers are historical; the fund's share price and
return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you sell your
shares. Lipper's new comparison categories are listed on page A-4.*

MARKET RECAP
Despite persistent volatility over the past year, the
U.S. equity market managed to produce another
round of healthy double-digit returns. For the
12-month period ending September 30, 1999, the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index and the Dow Jones
Industrial Average returned 27.80% and 33.88%,
respectively. Early in the period, the market was
characterized by a Federal Reserve Board that
embarked on an effort to stabilize turbulent global

response, investors pushed the Dow above the
10,000 level for the first time on March 29. Despite
periodic setbacks due to nervousness about
inflation, steady stock performance continued
through the first several months of 1999. Late in the
second quarter, however, an overheating domestic
economy and signs of a global recovery increased
fears of inflation and contributed to a shift in the
domestic economic environment. On May 18, the
Fed reversed its monetary policy stance from a
neutral bias to one that favored increasing rates
down the road. That bias shift led to a rate hike on
June 30, as the federal funds rate was increased
from 4.75% to 5.00%. The Fed hiked rates again
by the same amount on August 24. Although it
immediately switched to a neutral bias following
each increase, the market sold off in the third
quarter as investors anticipated another jump in
interest rates later in 1999 due to tight labor
markets.

An interview with
George A. Vanderheiden, Portfolio Manager of Destiny I
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM OVER THE PAST 12 MONTHS, GEORGE?
A. While the fund's Class O shares posted a respectable return of
18.99% for the 12-month period ending September 30, 1999, it still
underperformed its benchmark and its peers. During the period, the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index returned 27.80%, while the growth funds
average, as measured by Lipper Inc., was 30.34%.
Q. CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFICS BEHIND THE FUND'S SUBPAR PERFORMANCE
RELATIVE TO ITS PEERS AND THE S&P 500?
A. I would point to two primary explanations. First, the fund was
considerably underweighted in technology stocks. Throughout the
period, I felt that the valuations of technology stocks were
significantly overinflated. Despite that, a small group of technology
stocks - names like Microsoft, Intel, Dell and a few others -
continued to drive the performance of the market. While I did own
positions in most of those stocks, I did not weight them as heavily as
my growth fund peers did. Also the S&P 500's tech weighting was
roughly double the fund's 12.4% position in the sector.
Q. WHAT WAS THE SECOND FACTOR BEHIND THE FUND'S UNDERPERFORMANCE?
A. For most of the period, I tilted the fund toward value and
defensive growth stocks, with mixed results. At the period's outset, I
felt value stocks looked attractive relative to growth. Unfortunately,
it remained a very narrow, growth-oriented market through the end of
the first quarter of 1999. In the second quarter, however, the fund's
value positioning paid off. Central bank interest-rate easings around
the world, recoveries in Asia and Russia, and a rebound in commodity
prices - particularly oil - all contributed to a broadening of
corporate earnings. Thus, investors turned away from the expensive,
large-cap growth stocks and toward value and cyclical issues, whose
earnings and performance are sensitive to the ups and downs of the
economy. The fund was well-positioned for this rotation, and it
outperformed both the S&P 500 and the growth funds average for the
second quarter. Names such as Philip Morris, which had an otherwise
poor year, and Fleet Financial performed very well in this quarter.
Q. HOW DID VALUE STOCKS FARE IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 1999?
A. As quickly as investors rotated into value stocks in the second
quarter, they shifted out of them in the third quarter. The U.S.
Federal Reserve Board, wary of an overheated domestic economy and
impending signs of inflation, hiked short-term interest rates by 0.25
percentage points on June 30, which effectively ended the value and
cyclical rally. A second rate hike of the same amount on August 24
further sealed their demise.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGIC REACTION TO THE FED'S RATE HIKES IN TERMS
OF THE FUND'S POSITIONING?
A. I stopped buying cyclical and value stocks; there's no use chasing
a group that's not going to work if the market's worried about rising
interest rates. However, I continued to buy defensive growth stocks. I
define defensive growth companies as those that grow their earnings at
a 10% to 15% rate annually, have a reasonable price-to-earnings (P/E)
ratio and are not really affected by interest rates or recessions.
It's a broad category that includes financial growth stocks such as
Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Associates First Capital; drug stocks such
as Schering-Plough, Eli Lilly and Cardinal Health; and grocery store
chains such as Safeway and Kroger.
Q. WHAT DID YOU FIND COMPELLING ABOUT THIS GROUP?
A. I felt this group was attractive because it offers a good ratio of
growth per P/E. The example I like to use is Fannie Mae versus General
Electric, a blue chip growth company. Investors get approximately the
same growth with each company, but GE investors pay 33-times its year
2000 earnings, while Fannie Mae trades at only 15-times its 2000
earnings. There are certain times when I will overweight aggressive
growth companies such as Dell and Cisco, but once they get too
expensive, as I felt they did during the period, I focus on defensive
growth stocks.
Q. HOW DID THESE STOCKS PERFORM?
A. The majority of the fund's defensive growth holdings grew anywhere
from 12% to 15% during the period. However, the S&P posted returns of
well over 20%. Given this scenario, defensive growth underperformed.
Essentially, investors said, "Why do I want a company growing at 12%
to 15% when I know I can get an S&P company that's up 20%?" So,
despite their positive fundamentals and low valuations, the fund's
defensive growth positions were disappointing. Another reason for
their underperformance was the incredible "momentum market" we
experienced, where money just funnelled into six technology stocks -
Microsoft, Lucent, Dell, Cisco, Intel and IBM. This "gold rush
mentality" has helped these six tech companies appreciate by a
combined $1.1 trillion since the beginning of 1998, roughly equal to
what all stocks in the equity market were worth in 1982.
Q. WHAT POSITIONS WORKED WELL FOR THE FUND OVER THE COURSE OF THE
YEAR?
A. Technology holding Solectron, a contract electronic manufacturer,
was the largest contributor to performance. Technology companies
outsource their manufacturing to Solectron, and this stock has gone up
10-fold since I first started buying it in 1992. Strong stock
selection in the retail and telecommunications sectors also helped the
fund's overall return. In the retail sector, Wal-Mart and Home Depot
benefited from the strong U.S. economy and consumers' ability to
finance home improvements. U.K.-based telecommunications company
Vodafone, which benefited from solid earnings growth, had a persistent
run of outstanding performance, as did MCI WorldCom. Its focus on the
high-growth areas of Internet, data and international communications
gained the company 4% of the global telecom market.
Q. WHICH HOLDINGS HURT PERFORMANCE?
A. Philip Morris was the largest relative detractor due to the
company's ongoing litigation battles. Despite beating their first and
second quarter earnings estimates, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which
help provide housing for low- and moderate-income families, were
disappointments. Nervous sentiment concerning rising interest rates
drove share prices down. However, based on their strong fundamentals,
I feel these stocks were unfairly punished and I remain bullish about
their prospects. The fund's bond holdings, which accounted for 7.7% of
net assets at the end of the period, also fared poorly, due to rising
interest rates.
Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS, GEORGE?
A. I feel confident about the positioning of the fund, especially the
underweighting of technology and the focus on defensive growth stocks.
The Fed is in a tightening mode and this will serve to compress P/E
multiples going forward, as it has since the Fed started raising rates
in June. In this environment, stocks that should do best are those
with good earnings gains and modest valuations, while stocks with
inflated valuations are vulnerable to disappointments. At the end of
1992, Home Depot stock sold at an inflated valuation of 51-times its
next 12 month's earnings. In spite of the company growing its earnings
at 23% per year during the next three years, the stock was flat to
down over that period as the earnings caught up to the stock price.
This is what I expect to happen with the large-cap technology stocks.

GEORGE VANDERHEIDEN ON MANAGING
THE FUND THROUGH MARKET DOWNTURNS:
"Despite their impressive run, some of the hot
technology stocks are beginning to struggle. At
the end of the period, IBM's stock price was
approximately 20% below its recent high due to
problems with hardware sales. Xerox missed its
third-quarter earnings estimates and the stock
was cut roughly in half. Hewlett-Packard's sales
and orders were slowing, and Intel missed its
third-quarter earnings estimates due to declining
microprocessor prices and lower prices for PCs.
Furthermore, SAP, the world's largest business
management software company, saw a sharp
decline in third-quarter sales as customers
delayed technology purchases. In addition to
these signs, it's clear that the valuations of
technology stocks are way ahead of themselves.
Even Microsoft president Steve Ballmer recently
said that tech stocks, including those of his own
company, were overvalued.
"There are times when the market favors
aggressive growth, and there are times when it
favors defensive growth. I'm feeling better that
defensive growth is really the area to be in. I think
we're coming toward the end of the technology
dominance. With Y2K concerns and consideration
of their own bottom lines, many companies have
cut back on technology expenditures for the
fourth quarter through the middle of the first
quarter next year. All of this adds up to a degree
of uncertainty for technology stocks. Usually,
whenever you get uncertainty in the stock market,
people flee the area of uncertainty.
"Momentum tech stocks are also at risk if the
economy starts to slow. This is the eighth year of
economic expansion, tying the longest peacetime
expansion in our history, but it's getting long in
the tooth. We'll probably see some type of
slowing, which will have more impact on tech and
fast-growing companies than it will on health care
or personal care or grocery stores. All these
things tell me that defensive growth should beat
aggressive growth in the coming months."

An interview with Beth Terrana, Portfolio Manager of Destiny II
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, BETH?
A. The fund performed very well during the period. For the 12 months
ending September 30, 1999, the fund's Class O shares returned 30.06%.
This outdistanced the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, which returned
27.80%, but slightly lagged the Lipper growth funds average, which
returned 30.34%.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE FACTORS BEHIND THE FUND'S OUTPERFORMANCE OF
THE S&P 500 DURING THE PERIOD?
A. The top contributors to performance, relative to the S&P 500, were
the fund's financial stocks. In particular, Citigroup and American
Express were both top performers during the period. American Express
has a dominant global franchise, continued to deliver strong revenue
growth and had an aggressive strategy to offer its financial and
travel-related services on the Internet. Citigroup benefited from its
unique combination of strong international brands and cost-cutting
initiatives. Overall, however, I believe the fundamentals of the
finance sector have deteriorated. Revenue growth has slowed, credit
risk has risen and many banks have poorly executed the integration of
recent mergers. Consequently, underweighting the lagging finance
sector during the past year also enhanced Destiny II's performance. An
underweighted position in the health sector provided another positive
contribution. After nearly five years of enormous new-product growth,
the pace of new-product introductions is expected to slow. With fewer
blockbuster drugs in the new-product pipeline and more drugs coming
off patent protection, earnings growth rates will likely slow down for
many pharmaceutical companies.
Q. WHICH STOCKS DID NOT PERFORM AS YOU HOPED?
A. Xerox was a disappointment. For the past three years, Xerox had the
market for digital copiers largely to itself. Recently, Canon and
Ricoh have developed strong competing products. In addition, Xerox has
been slow to implement its announced sales force reorganization. These
two factors left the company vulnerable to increased competition and
earnings disappointments. Several of the fund's consumer nondurables
holdings, most notably Clorox, also detracted from returns. Clorox, as
was the case with many consumer nondurables companies, was hurt by
increased competition across a number of products, and by a slowdown
in unit volumes.
Q. THE MARKET OVER THE PAST YEAR DRAMATICALLY ROTATED FROM GROWTH
STOCKS TO CYCLICALS, AND THEN BACK AGAIN. HOW DID THIS AFFECT THE
FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. During the first six months of the period, Destiny II soundly
outdistanced both the S&P 500 index and its Lipper peers because of
the fund's stock selection among large, dominant companies with strong
earnings growth, heavy domestic exposure and rising returns on
invested capital. During the past six months, however, the fund
underperformed the index and its peers. Beginning in April and lasting
only a few months, the market broadened and more cyclical and small-
and mid-cap companies began to demonstrate positive earnings growth.
During this time, I did add to positions in economically sensitive
industries such as chemicals and integrated energy, but the rapid
shift in market leadership from large-cap growth companies to
cyclicals still hurt the fund's performance. Over the final three
months of the period, the rally in cyclical stocks proved to be short
lived and the S&P 500 declined, hurt by heightened concerns over
rising inflation and interest rates. Many technology stocks, however,
were notable exceptions; the technology sector was one of only two
market groups that had positive gains during the last quarter of the
period. The fund was underweighted in technology, and this hampered
returns.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES THAT LED
TO THE FUND'S UNDERWEIGHTING IN THIS SECTOR?
A. I was underweighted in technology because I have always been
value-oriented, and I did not find many attractive valuations in the
sector. In retrospect, this was a mistake. The technology sector has
done well for obvious reasons. Over the past few years, many
technology companies have had among the highest earnings growth rates
and the greatest improvements in return on capital. The market has
been willing to pay a premium for this superior growth, with the
expectation that earnings will continue to improve. During the past
several months, I increased the fund's technology weighting. I realize
that valuations are high for many technology stocks, but as I compared
my various investment alternatives, I found a number of technology
companies where I could make a compelling case for continued high
earnings growth as well as improvements in profitability and return on
assets.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK, BETH? ARE THERE ANY AREAS OF THE MARKET THAT
APPEAR PARTICULARLY INTERESTING TO YOU RIGHT NOW?
A. In the U.S., I have been focusing some of my time on the wireless
sector. Once a critical mass of people is using wireless
communication, it becomes an increasingly attractive alternative for
everyday communication. Although I primarily concentrate on U.S.
companies, international stocks are another area of focus for me. When
comparing the relative earnings growth rates between U.S. and foreign
companies, many opportunities now exist overseas that may not have
existed several years ago. In Europe, corporate restructuring efforts
have picked-up, merger and acquisition activity has been heavy and the
economy is improving. These three factors should drive better earnings
growth and improve profitability going forward. The economy also is
improving in Japan, and many companies finally seem to be serious
about restructuring. If Japanese managements remain committed to
restructuring, we could be witnessing the beginning of long-term
improvement in profitability for Japanese companies.

BETH TERRANA ON THE OLD VERSUS THE
NEW ECONOMY:
"What we are seeing in the stock market is really
a tale of two markets. One part of the market is
represented by the old, goods-producing
economy. In this economy, competition is fierce,
the ability to raise prices is non-existent, unit
growth rates are slowing, P/E ratios are declining
and, in most cases, profit margins are also
decreasing.
"On the other hand, we have the new economy,
which includes technology - epitomized by the
Internet - and telecommunications, exemplified
by the wireless sector. In this new economy,
growth rates are high and, in some cases,
accelerating, while profit margins, returns on
capital and P/E ratios are increasing.
Consequently, there is now a stark dichotomy
between the old and new economy - akin to a
stretched rubber band, with the old and new
economy on opposite ends. As P/E ratios for
many technology and telecommunication
companies continue to rise and P/E ratios for old
economy companies continue to fall, the rubber
band continues to stretch. While it is unclear how
much tension the rubber band can take, the
current valuation divergence is reasonably
well-explained."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended September 30, 1999
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Destiny I and Destiny II (the funds) are funds of Fidelity Destiny
Portfolios (the trust). 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 Massachusetts business
trust. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.
Each fund offers two classes of shares, Class O and Class N, each of
which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class
has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that
class. The funds commenced sale of Class N shares on April 30, 1999.
Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses,
the common expenses of the funds, and certain fund-level expense
reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class
based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets
of each fund. Each class of shares differs in its respective
distribution and transfer agent expenses, and expense reductions.
Shares of each fund are offered to the general public through Fidelity
Systematic Investment Plans: Destiny Plans I and Destiny Plans II (the
Plans), a unit investment trust with four series.
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 funds:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities (including restricted
securities) for which exchange quotations are not readily available
(and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an exchange) are
valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair
value as determined in good faith under consistently applied
procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the funds are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases
and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are
translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the
respective dates of the transactions.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, the difference
between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S.
dollar amount actually received, and gains and losses between trade
and settlement date on purchases and sales of securities. The effects
of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in
securities are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or
loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for the fiscal year. The schedules of investments
include information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the funds
are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income, which includes accretion of
original issue discount, is accrued as earned. Investment income is
recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is
uncertain.
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.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
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 funds. Deferred amounts remain in the
fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for litigation proceeds, foreign currency transactions,
partnerships, non-taxable dividends and losses deferred due to wash
sales. The fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to
shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid
deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net
realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency transactions
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.
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.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The funds generally use foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the funds, 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 or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the funds, 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 funds' investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above.
TAXABLE CENTRAL CASH FUND. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the SEC, the funds may invest in the Taxable Central Cash Fund (the
Cash Fund) managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc., an
affiliate of FMR. The Cash Fund is an open-end money market fund
available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by
FMR and its affiliates. The Cash Fund seeks preservation of capital,
liquidity, and current income. Income distributions from the Cash Fund
are declared daily and paid monthly from net interest
2. OPERATING POLICIES - CONTINUED
TAXABLE CENTRAL CASH FUND - CONTINUED
income. Income distributions earned by the funds are recorded as
interest income in the accompanying financial statements.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The funds are 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, the funds had no investments in restricted
securities (excluding 144A issues).
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Destiny I: Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $2,483,153,725 and $2,879,070,551,
respectively, of which U.S. government and government agency
obligations aggregated $0 and $152,315,313, respectively.
Destiny II: Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $3,781,882,869 and $3,729,228,823,
respectively, of which U.S. government and government agency
obligations aggregated $67,698,445 and $61,950,039, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly basic fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate
plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net
assets of each fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a
series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all
the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to
.5200% for the period. The annual individual fund fee rates are .17%
and .30 % for Destiny I and Destiny II, respectively. In the event
that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect
during the period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as
they resulted in the same or a lower management fee. The basic fee is
subject to a performance adjustment (up to a maximum of -.24% of each
fund's average net assets up to and including $100,000,000 and -.20%
of each fund's average net assets in excess of $100,000,000 over the
performance period) based on each fund's investment performance as
compared to the appropriate index over a specified period of time. For
the period, the management fees were equivalent to annual rates of
.29% and .45%, respectively of average net assets after the
performance adjustment for the Destiny I and Destiny II funds,
respectively. Effective July 1, 1999 each fund's performance
adjustment will be phased out over an 18 month period. During the
phase out period the performance adjustment can decrease, but not
increase, the management fee owed by the funds.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES -
CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Board of Trustees has adopted a Distribution and Service
Plan (the Plan) for Class N for each fund. During the period, Class N
paid Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a
service fee based on an annual rate of .25% of Class N's average net
assets pursuant to the Plan. For the period, Class N paid FDC the
following amounts:
PAID TO FDC
Destiny I $ 175
Destiny II $ 558
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Company, Inc., (FSC), an
affiliate of FMR, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder
servicing agent for each class of the funds. For Class O non-Destiny
Plan accounts, FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that
vary according to account size and type of account. FSC does not
receive a fee for Class O Destiny Plan accounts. For Class N, FSC
receives a fee based on monthly Plan payment amounts or per
transaction that may not exceed an annual rate of .63% of the Class N
shares' average net assets. In addition, FSC pays for typesetting,
printing, and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy
statements. For the period, the following amounts were paid to FSC:
Destiny I
AMOUNT % OF AVERAGE NET ASSETS
CLASS O $ 514,732 .01
CLASS N 441 .62 *
$ 515,173
Destiny II
AMOUNT % OF AVERAGE NET ASSETS
CLASS O $ 250,468 .01
CLASS N 1,405 .62 *
$ 251,873
* ANNUALIZED
ACCOUNTING AND SECURITY LENDING FEES. FSC maintains each fund's
accounting records and administers the security lending program. The
security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending
transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net
assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. Each fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms for Destiny I and Destiny
II were $475,612 and $336,677, respectively for the period.
5. SECURITY LENDING.
The funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn
additional income. Each fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S.
Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the
loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than
100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of
the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at
the close of business of the funds and any additional required
collateral is delivered to the funds on the next business day. If the
borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned
because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays
and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to
the collateral. At period end, there were no loans outstanding for
Destiny I. At period end, the value of the securities loaned amounted
to $19,716,383 for Destiny II. Destiny II received cash collateral of
$20,284,529 which was invested in the Taxable Central Cash Fund.
6. BANK BORROWINGS.
The funds are permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or
emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. The funds have
established borrowing arrangements with certain banks. The interest
rate on the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time
to time. For Destiny I there were no loans during the period. For
Destiny II the average daily loan balance during the period for which
the loan was outstanding amounted to $6,000,000. The weighted average
interest rate was 5.4%.
7. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a
portion of the fund's expenses. For the period, each fund's expenses
were reduced by $712,549 and $954,197 under this arrangement for
Destiny I and Destiny II, respectively.
In addition, each fund has entered into arrangements with its
custodian and each class' transfer agent whereby credits realized as a
result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of
expenses. During the period, each fund's custodian fees were reduced
by $4,090 and $864 for Destiny I and Destiny II, respectively under
the custodian arrangement. Each applicable class' expenses were
reduced as follows under the transfer agent arrangements:
Destiny I
TRANSFER AGENT CREDITS
CLASS O $ 17,896
Destiny II

CLASS O $ 17,746

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Trustees and Shareholders of Fidelity Destiny Portfolios:
Destiny I and Destiny II:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the portfolios of investments of Destiny I and Destiny II
(funds of Fidelity Destiny Portfolios) as of September 30, 1999, and
the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and
financial highlights for the year then ended. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audit. The statement of changes in net assets for the year ended
September 30, 1998 and the financial highlights for each of the years
in the four-year period ended September 30, 1998 were audited by other
auditors whose report, dated November 12, 1998 expressed an
unqualified opinion on those statements and financial highlights.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of the securities owned at September 30, 1999 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not
received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of
Destiny I and Destiny II at September 30, 1999, the results of their
operations, the changes in their net assets, and their financial
highlights for the year then ended in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

OF SPECIAL NOTE
INTRODUCING FIDELITY'S NEW, REORGANIZED PROSPECTUS
Recently, the SEC issued new disclosure requirements for all mutual
fund prospectuses. While Fidelity could have complied by simply
following the new requirements, we saw a different opportunity. We saw
the chance to create a brand new prospectus: one that is better
organized, easier to use and more informative than ever.
The new format of the Fidelity mutual fund prospectus puts the
information you need to make informed investment decisions right at
your fingertips. In the opening pages, you will find the SEC-mandated
summary that highlights the fund's investment objectives, strategies
and risks. There's also an easy-to-read performance chart and fee
table right up front.
Inside, you will find additional features we've introduced to make the
fund prospectus a more useful tool. In our new Shareholder Information
section, for example, we have provided practical, beneficial
information - from how to buy or sell shares, key contact information,
investment services, ways to set up your account and more - all in one
convenient location.
We invite you to spend a moment and review our new prospectus. It is
designed to help make your investment decision easier, no matter which
of the Fidelity funds you invest in.
PROXY VOTING RESULTS
A special meeting of the funds' shareholders was held on June 16,
1999. Shareholders of record at the close of business on April 19,
1999 (Class O) were entitled to vote. The results of votes taken among
shareholders on proposals before them are reported below. Each vote

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Destiny I: Class N on September 30, 1989. As the chart
shows, by September 30, 1999, the value of the investment would have
grown to $47,618 - a 376.18% increase on the initial investment. For
comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000
investment would have grown to $47,344 - a 373.44% increase.

Destiny I began offering Class N shares on April 30, 1999. The total
returns for Class N reported for periods prior to April 30, 1999 are
those of Class O, restated to reflect the higher 12b-1 and transfer
agent fees applicable to Class N.
The charts above show Destiny I: Class N total returns, which include
changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital
gains. The fund's cumulative total returns and average annual total
returns do not include the effects of the separate sales charges
assessed through Destiny Plans I: N (the Plans); the figures provided
for a "$50/month 15-year plan" illustrate the fund's performance
adjusted to reflect fees and sales charges assessed by the Plans. The
illustrations assume an initial investment at the beginning of each
period shown. Because the illustrations assume yearly lump sum
investments, they do not reflect what investors would have earned had
they made regular monthly investments over the period. As shares of
the funds may be acquired only through the Plans, investors should
consult the Plans' prospectus for more complete information on the
impact of the separate charges and fees applicable to each Plan. The
rate (%) of deductions decreases proportionately as Plan sizes
increase. Figures for the S&P 500, a market capitalization-weighted
index of common stocks, include reinvestment of dividends.
All performance numbers are historical; the fund's share price and
return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when you sell your
shares. Lipper's new comparison categories are listed on page A-4.*

invested in Destiny II: Class N on September 30, 1989. As the chart
shows, by September 30, 1999, the value of the investment would have
grown to $52,550 - a 425.50% increase on the initial investment. For
comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
Despite persistent volatility over the past year, the
U.S. equity market managed to produce another
round of healthy double-digit returns. For the
12-month period ending September 30, 1999, the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index and the Dow Jones
Industrial Average returned 27.80% and 33.88%,
respectively. Early in the period, the market was
characterized by a Federal Reserve Board that
embarked on an effort to stabilize turbulent global
markets with a series of interest-rate cuts. In
response, investors pushed the Dow above the
10,000 level for the first time on March 29. Despite
periodic setbacks due to nervousness about
inflation, steady stock performance continued
through the first several months of 1999. Late in the
second quarter, however, an overheating domestic
economy and signs of a global recovery increased
fears of inflation and contributed to a shift in the
domestic economic environment. On May 18, the
Fed reversed its monetary policy stance from a
neutral bias to one that favored increasing rates
down the road. That bias shift led to a rate hike on
June 30, as the federal funds rate was increased
from 4.75% to 5.00%. The Fed hiked rates again
by the same amount on August 24. Although it
immediately switched to a neutral bias following
each increase, the market sold off in the third
quarter as investors anticipated another jump in
interest rates later in 1999 due to tight labor
markets.

An interview with
George A. Vanderheiden, Portfolio Manager of Destiny I
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM OVER THE PAST 12 MONTHS, GEORGE?
A. While the fund's Class N shares posted a respectable return of
17.99% for the 12-month period ending September 30, 1999, it still
underperformed its benchmark and its peers. During the period, the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index returned 27.80%, while the growth funds
average, as measured by Lipper Inc., was 30.34%.
Q. CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFICS BEHIND THE FUND'S SUBPAR PERFORMANCE
RELATIVE TO ITS PEERS AND THE S&P 500?
A. I would point to two primary explanations. First, the fund was
considerably underweighted in technology stocks. Throughout the
period, I felt that the valuations of technology stocks were
significantly overinflated. Despite that, a small group of technology
stocks - names like Microsoft, Intel, Dell and a few others -
continued to drive the performance of the market. While I did own
positions in most of those stocks, I did not weight them as heavily as
my growth fund peers did. Also the S&P 500's tech weighting was
roughly double the fund's 12.4% position in the sector.
Q. WHAT WAS THE SECOND FACTOR BEHIND THE FUND'S UNDERPERFORMANCE?
A. For most of the period, I tilted the fund toward value and
defensive growth stocks, with mixed results. At the period's outset, I
felt value stocks looked attractive relative to growth. Unfortunately,
it remained a very narrow, growth-oriented market through the end of
the first quarter of 1999. In the second quarter, however, the fund's
value positioning paid off. Central bank interest-rate easings around
the world, recoveries in Asia and Russia, and a rebound in commodity
prices - particularly oil - all contributed to a broadening of
corporate earnings. Thus, investors turned away from the expensive,
large-cap growth stocks and toward value and cyclical issues, whose
earnings and performance are sensitive to the ups and downs of the
economy. The fund was well-positioned for this rotation, and it
outperformed both the S&P 500 and the growth funds average for the
second quarter. Names such as Philip Morris, which had an otherwise
poor year, and Fleet Financial performed very well in this quarter.
Q. HOW DID VALUE STOCKS FARE IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 1999?
A. As quickly as investors rotated into value stocks in the second
quarter, they shifted out of them in the third quarter. The U.S.
Federal Reserve Board, wary of an overheated domestic economy and
impending signs of inflation, hiked short-term interest rates by 0.25
percentage points on June 30, which effectively ended the value and
cyclical rally. A second rate hike of the same amount on August 24
further sealed their demise.
Q. WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGIC REACTION TO THE FED'S RATE HIKES IN TERMS
OF THE FUND'S POSITIONING?
A. I stopped buying cyclical and value stocks; there's no use chasing
a group that's not going to work if the market's worried about rising
interest rates. However, I continued to buy defensive growth stocks. I
define defensive growth companies as those that grow their earnings at
a 10% to 15% rate annually, have a reasonable price-to-earnings (P/E)
ratio and are not really affected by interest rates or recessions.
It's a broad category that includes financial growth stocks such as
Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Associates First Capital; drug stocks such
as Schering-Plough, Eli Lilly and Cardinal Health; and grocery store
chains such as Safeway and Kroger.
Q. WHAT DID YOU FIND COMPELLING ABOUT THIS GROUP?
A. I felt this group was attractive because it offers a good ratio of
growth per P/E. The example I like to use is Fannie Mae versus General
Electric, a blue chip growth company. Investors get approximately the
same growth with each company, but GE investors pay 33-times its year
2000 earnings, while Fannie Mae trades at only 15-times its 2000
earnings. There are certain times when I will overweight aggressive
growth companies such as Dell and Cisco, but once they get too
expensive, as I felt they did during the period, I focus on defensive
growth stocks.
Q. HOW DID THESE STOCKS PERFORM?
A. The majority of the fund's defensive growth holdings grew anywhere
from 12% to 15% during the period. However, the S&P posted returns of
well over 20%. Given this scenario, defensive growth underperformed.
Essentially, investors said, "Why do I want a company growing at 12%
to 15% when I know I can get an S&P company that's up 20%?" So,
despite their positive fundamentals and low valuations, the fund's
defensive growth positions were disappointing. Another reason for
their underperformance was the incredible "momentum market" we
experienced, where money just funnelled into six technology stocks -
Microsoft, Lucent, Dell, Cisco, Intel and IBM. This "gold rush
mentality" has helped these six tech companies appreciate by a
combined $1.1 trillion since the beginning of 1998, roughly equal to
what all stocks in the equity market were worth in 1982.
Q. WHAT POSITIONS WORKED WELL FOR THE FUND OVER THE COURSE OF THE
YEAR?
A. Technology holding Solectron, a contract electronic manufacturer,
was the largest contributor to performance. Technology companies
outsource their manufacturing to Solectron, and this stock has gone up
10-fold since I first started buying it in 1992. Strong stock
selection in the retail and telecommunications sectors also helped the
fund's overall return. In the retail sector, Wal-Mart and Home Depot
benefited from the strong U.S. economy and consumers' ability to
finance home improvements. U.K.-based telecommunications company
Vodafone, which benefited from solid earnings growth, had a persistent
run of outstanding performance, as did MCI WorldCom. Its focus on the
high-growth areas of Internet, data and international communications
gained the company 4% of the global telecom market.
Q. WHICH HOLDINGS HURT PERFORMANCE?
A. Philip Morris was the largest relative detractor due to the
company's ongoing litigation battles. Despite beating their first and
second quarter earnings estimates, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which
help provide housing for low- and moderate-income families, were
disappointments. Nervous sentiment concerning rising interest rates
drove share prices down. However, based on their strong fundamentals,
I feel these stocks were unfairly punished and I remain bullish about
their prospects. The fund's bond holdings, which accounted for 7.7% of
net assets at the end of the period, also fared poorly, due to rising
interest rates.
Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS, GEORGE?
A. I feel confident about the positioning of the fund, especially the
underweighting of technology and the focus on defensive growth stocks.
The Fed is in a tightening mode and this will serve to compress P/E
multiples going forward, as it has since the Fed started raising rates
in June. In this environment, stocks that should do best are those
with good earnings gains and modest valuations, while stocks with
inflated valuations are vulnerable to disappointments. At the end of
1992, Home Depot stock sold at an inflated valuation of 51-times its
next 12 month's earnings. In spite of the company growing its earnings
at 23% per year during the next three years, the stock was flat to
down over that period as the earnings caught up to the stock price.
This is what I expect to happen with the large-cap technology stocks.

GEORGE VANDERHEIDEN ON MANAGING
THE FUND THROUGH MARKET DOWNTURNS:
"Despite their impressive run, some of the hot
technology stocks are beginning to struggle. At
the end of the period, IBM's stock price was
approximately 20% below its recent high due to
problems with hardware sales. Xerox missed its
third-quarter earnings estimates and the stock
was cut roughly in half. Hewlett-Packard's sales
and orders were slowing, and Intel missed its
third-quarter earnings estimates due to declining
microprocessor prices and lower prices for PCs.
Furthermore, SAP, the world's largest business
management software company, saw a sharp
decline in third-quarter sales as customers
delayed technology purchases. In addition to
these signs, it's clear that the valuations of
technology stocks are way ahead of themselves.
Even Microsoft president Steve Ballmer recently
said that tech stocks, including those of his own
company, were overvalued.
"There are times when the market favors
aggressive growth, and there are times when it
favors defensive growth. I'm feeling better that
defensive growth is really the area to be in. I think
we're coming toward the end of the technology
dominance. With Y2K concerns and consideration
of their own bottom lines, many companies have
cut back on technology expenditures for the
fourth quarter through the middle of the first
quarter next year. All of this adds up to a degree
of uncertainty for technology stocks. Usually,
whenever you get uncertainty in the stock market,
people flee the area of uncertainty.
"Momentum tech stocks are also at risk if the
economy starts to slow. This is the eighth year of
economic expansion, tying the longest peacetime
expansion in our history, but it's getting long in
the tooth. We'll probably see some type of
slowing, which will have more impact on tech and
fast-growing companies than it will on health care
or personal care or grocery stores. All these
things tell me that defensive growth should beat
aggressive growth in the coming months."

An interview with Beth Terrana, Portfolio Manager of Destiny II
Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, BETH?
A. The fund performed very well during the period. For the twelve
months ending September 30, 1999, the fund's Class N shares returned
29.07%. This outdistanced the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, which
returned 27.80%, but slightly lagged the Lipper growth funds average,
which returned 30.34%.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE FACTORS BEHIND THE FUND'S OUTPERFORMANCE OF
THE S&P 500 DURING THE PERIOD?
A. The top contributors to performance, relative to the S&P 500, were
the fund's financial stocks. In particular, Citigroup and American
Express were both top performers during the period. American Express
has a dominant global franchise, continued to deliver strong revenue
growth and had an aggressive strategy to offer its financial and
travel-related services on the Internet. Citigroup benefited from its
unique combination of strong international brands and cost-cutting
initiatives. Overall, however, I believe the fundamentals of the
finance sector have deteriorated. Revenue growth has slowed, credit
risk has risen and many banks have poorly executed the integration of
recent mergers. Consequently, underweighting the lagging finance
sector during the past year also enhanced Destiny II's performance. An
underweighted position in the health sector provided another positive
contribution. After nearly five years of enormous new-product growth,
the pace of new-product introductions is expected to slow. With fewer
blockbuster drugs in the new-product pipeline and more drugs coming
off patent protection, earnings growth rates will likely slow down for
many pharmaceutical companies.
Q. WHICH STOCKS DID NOT PERFORM AS YOU HOPED?
A. Xerox was a disappointment. For the past three years, Xerox had the
market for digital copiers largely to itself. Recently, Canon and
Ricoh have developed strong competing products. In addition, Xerox has
been slow to implement its announced sales force reorganization. These
two factors left the company vulnerable to increased competition and
earnings disappointments. Several of the fund's consumer nondurables
holdings, most notably Clorox, also detracted from returns. Clorox, as
was the case with many consumer nondurables companies, was hurt by
increased competition across a number of products, and by a slowdown
in unit volumes.
Q. THE MARKET OVER THE PAST YEAR DRAMATICALLY ROTATED FROM GROWTH
STOCKS TO CYCLICALS, AND THEN BACK AGAIN. HOW DID THIS AFFECT THE
FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. During the first six months of the period, Destiny II soundly
outdistanced both the S&P 500 index and its Lipper peers because of
the fund's stock selection among large, dominant companies with strong
earnings growth, heavy domestic exposure and rising returns on
invested capital. During the past six months, however, the fund
underperformed the index and its peers. Beginning in April and lasting
only a few months, the market broadened and more cyclical and small-
and mid-cap companies began to demonstrate positive earnings growth.
During this time, I did add to positions in economically sensitive
industries such as chemicals and integrated energy, but the rapid
shift in market leadership from large-cap growth companies to
cyclicals still hurt the fund's performance. Over the final three
months of the period, the rally in cyclical stocks proved to be short
lived and the S&P 500 declined, hurt by heightened concerns over
rising inflation and interest rates. Many technology stocks, however,
were notable exceptions; the technology sector was one of only two
market groups that had positive gains during the last quarter of the
period. The fund was underweighted in technology, and this hampered
returns.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES THAT LED
TO THE FUND'S UNDERWEIGHTING IN THIS SECTOR?
A. I was underweighted in technology because I have always been
value-oriented, and I did not find many attractive valuations in the
sector. In retrospect, this was a mistake. The technology sector has
done well for obvious reasons. Over the past few years, many
technology companies have had among the highest earnings growth rates
and the greatest improvements in return on capital. The market has
been willing to pay a premium for this superior growth, with the
expectation that earnings will continue to improve. During the past
several months, I increased the fund's technology weighting. I realize
that valuations are high for many technology stocks, but as I compared
my various investment alternatives, I found a number of technology
companies where I could make a compelling case for continued high
earnings growth as well as improvements in profitability and return on
assets.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK, BETH? ARE THERE ANY AREAS OF THE MARKET THAT
APPEAR PARTICULARLY INTERESTING TO YOU RIGHT NOW?
A. In the U.S., I have been focusing some of my time on the wireless
sector. Once a critical mass of people is using wireless
communication, it becomes an increasingly attractive alternative for
everyday communication. Although I primarily concentrate on U.S.
companies, international stocks are another area of focus for me. When
comparing the relative earnings growth rates between U.S. and foreign
companies, many opportunities now exist overseas that may not have
existed several years ago. In Europe, corporate restructuring efforts
have picked-up, merger and acquisition activity has been heavy and the
economy is improving. These three factors should drive better earnings
growth and improve profitability going forward. The economy also is
improving in Japan, and many companies finally seem to be serious
about restructuring. If Japanese managements remain committed to
restructuring, we could be witnessing the beginning of long-term
improvement in profitability for Japanese companies.

BETH TERRANA ON THE OLD VERSUS THE
NEW ECONOMY:
"What we are seeing in the stock market is really
a tale of two markets. One part of the market is
represented by the old, goods-producing
economy. In this economy, competition is fierce,
the ability to raise prices is non-existent, unit
growth rates are slowing, P/E ratios are declining
and, in most cases, profit margins are also
decreasing.
"On the other hand, we have the new economy,
which includes technology - epitomized by the
Internet - and telecommunications, exemplified
by the wireless sector. In this new economy,
growth rates are high and, in some cases,
accelerating, while profit margins, returns on
capital and P/E ratios are increasing.
Consequently, there is now a stark dichotomy
between the old and new economy - akin to a
stretched rubber band, with the old and new
economy on opposite ends. As P/E ratios for
many technology and telecommunication
companies continue to rise and P/E ratios for old
economy companies continue to fall, the rubber
band continues to stretch. While it is unclear how
much tension the rubber band can take, the
current valuation divergence is reasonably
well-explained."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended September 30, 1999
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Destiny I and Destiny II (the funds) are funds of Fidelity Destiny
Portfolios (the trust). 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 Massachusetts business
trust. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.
Each fund offers two classes of shares, Class O and Class N, each of
which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class
has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that
class. The funds commenced sale of Class N shares on April 30, 1999.
Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses,
the common expenses of the funds, and certain fund-level expense
reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class
based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets
of each fund. Each class of shares differs in its respective
distribution and transfer agent expenses, and expense reductions.
Shares of each fund are offered to the general public through Fidelity
Systematic Investment Plans: Destiny Plans I and Destiny Plans II (the
Plans), a unit investment trust with four series.
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 funds:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are
readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price. Securities (including restricted
securities) for which exchange quotations are not readily available
(and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an exchange) are
valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair
value as determined in good faith under consistently applied
procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the funds are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases
and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are
translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the
respective dates of the transactions.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of foreign
currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, the difference
between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S.
dollar amount actually received, and gains and losses between trade
and settlement date on purchases and sales of securities. The effects
of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in
securities are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or
loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for the fiscal year. The schedules of investments
include information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date, except certain dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the funds
are informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in
dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the
securities received. Interest income, which includes accretion of
original issue discount, is accrued as earned. Investment income is
recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is
uncertain.
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.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
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 funds. Deferred amounts remain in the
fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are
declared separately for each class.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for litigation proceeds, foreign currency transactions,
partnerships, non-taxable dividends and losses deferred due to wash
sales. The fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to
shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid
deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net
realized gain (loss) on investments and foreign currency transactions
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.
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.
FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The funds generally use foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated
securities. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms. The U.S. dollar value of foreign currency contracts is
determined using contractual currency exchange rates established at
the time of each trade.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the funds, 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 or Federal Agency
securities are transferred to an account of the funds, 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 funds' investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above.
TAXABLE CENTRAL CASH FUND. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by
the SEC, the funds may invest in the Taxable Central Cash Fund (the
Cash Fund) managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc., an
affiliate of FMR. The Cash Fund is an open-end money market fund
available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by
FMR and its affiliates. The Cash Fund seeks preservation of capital,
liquidity, and current income. Income distributions from the Cash Fund
are declared daily and paid monthly from net interest
2. OPERATING POLICIES - CONTINUED
TAXABLE CENTRAL CASH FUND - CONTINUED
income. Income distributions earned by the funds are recorded as
interest income in the accompanying financial statements.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The funds are 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, the funds had no investments in restricted
securities (excluding 144A issues).
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Destiny I: Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $2,483,153,725 and $2,879,070,551,
respectively, of which U.S. government and government agency
obligations aggregated $0 and $152,315,313, respectively.
Destiny II: Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $3,781,882,869 and $3,729,228,823,
respectively, of which U.S. government and government agency
obligations aggregated $67,698,445 and $61,950,039, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a
monthly basic fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate
plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net
assets of each fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a
series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all
the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .2500% to
.5200% for the period. The annual individual fund fee rates are .17%
and .30 % for Destiny I and Destiny II, respectively. In the event
that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect
during the period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as
they resulted in the same or a lower management fee. The basic fee is
subject to a performance adjustment (up to a maximum of -.24% of each
fund's average net assets up to and including $100,000,000 and -.20%
of each fund's average net assets in excess of $100,000,000 over the
performance period) based on each fund's investment performance as
compared to the appropriate index over a specified period of time. For
the period, the management fees were equivalent to annual rates of
.29% and .45%, respectively of average net assets after the
performance adjustment for the Destiny I and Destiny II funds,
respectively. Effective July 1, 1999 each fund's performance
adjustment will be phased out over an 18 month period. During the
phase out period the performance adjustment can decrease, but not
increase, the management fee owed by the funds.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES -
CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the
1940 Act, the Board of Trustees has adopted a Distribution and Service
Plan (the Plan) for Class N for each fund. During the period, Class N
paid Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a
service fee based on an annual rate of .25% of Class N's average net
assets pursuant to the Plan. For the period, Class N paid FDC the
following amounts:
PAID TO FDC
Destiny I $ 175
Destiny II $ 558
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Company, Inc., (FSC), an
affiliate of FMR, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder
servicing agent for each class of the funds. For Class O non-Destiny
Plan accounts, FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that
vary according to account size and type of account. FSC does not
receive a fee for Class O Destiny Plan accounts. For Class N, FSC
receives a fee based on monthly Plan payment amounts or per
transaction that may not exceed an annual rate of .63% of the Class N
shares' average net assets. In addition, FSC pays for typesetting,
printing, and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy
statements. For the period, the following amounts were paid to FSC:

security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending
transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net
assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. Each fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms for Destiny I and Destiny
II were $475,612 and $336,677, respectively for the period.
5. SECURITY LENDING.
The funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn
additional income. Each fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S.
Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the
loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than
100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of
the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at
the close of business of the funds and any additional required
collateral is delivered to the funds on the next business day. If the
borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned
because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays
and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to
the collateral. At period end, there were no loans outstanding for
Destiny I. At period end, the value of the securities loaned amounted
to $19,716,383 for Destiny II. Destiny II received cash collateral of
$20,284,529 which was invested in the Taxable Central Cash Fund.
6. BANK BORROWINGS.
The funds are permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or
emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. The funds have
established borrowing arrangements with certain banks. The interest
rate on the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time
to time. For Destiny I there were no loans during the period. For
Destiny II the average daily loan balance during the period for which
the loan was outstanding amounted to $6,000,000. The weighted average
interest rate was 5.4%.
7. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a
portion of the fund's expenses. For the period, each fund's expenses
were reduced by $712,549 and $954,197 under this arrangement for
Destiny I and Destiny II, respectively.
In addition, each fund has entered into arrangements with its
custodian and each class' transfer agent whereby credits realized as a
result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of
expenses. During the period, each fund's custodian fees were reduced
by $4,090 and $864 for Destiny I and Destiny II, respectively under
the custodian arrangement. Each applicable class' expenses were
reduced as follows under the transfer agent arrangements:
Destiny I
TRANSFER AGENT CREDITS
CLASS O $ 17,896
Destiny II

CLASS O $ 17,746

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Trustees and Shareholders of Fidelity Destiny Portfolios:
Destiny I and Destiny II:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the portfolios of investments of Destiny I and Destiny II
(funds of Fidelity Destiny Portfolios) as of September 30, 1999, and
the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and
financial highlights for the year then ended. These financial
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audit. The statement of changes in net assets for the year ended
September 30, 1998 and the financial highlights for each of the years
in the four-year period ended September 30, 1998 were audited by other
auditors whose report, dated November 12, 1998 expressed an
unqualified opinion on those statements and financial highlights.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of the securities owned at September 30, 1999 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not
received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of
Destiny I and Destiny II at September 30, 1999, the results of their
operations, the changes in their net assets, and their financial
highlights for the year then ended in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

OF SPECIAL NOTE
INTRODUCING FIDELITY'S NEW, REORGANIZED PROSPECTUS
Recently, the SEC issued new disclosure requirements for all mutual
fund prospectuses. While Fidelity could have complied by simply
following the new requirements, we saw a different opportunity. We saw
the chance to create a brand new prospectus: one that is better
organized, easier to use and more informative than ever.
The new format of the Fidelity mutual fund prospectus puts the
information you need to make informed investment decisions right at
your fingertips. In the opening pages, you will find the SEC-mandated
summary that highlights the fund's investment objectives, strategies
and risks. There's also an easy-to-read performance chart and fee
table right up front.
Inside, you will find additional features we've introduced to make the
fund prospectus a more useful tool. In our new Shareholder Information
section, for example, we have provided practical, beneficial
information - from how to buy or sell shares, key contact information,
investment services, ways to set up your account and more - all in one
convenient location.
We invite you to spend a moment and review our new prospectus. It is
designed to help make your investment decision easier, no matter which
of the Fidelity funds you invest in.
PROXY VOTING RESULTS
