$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS:  Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Destiny I on March 31, 1989. As the chart shows, by March
31, 1999, the value of the investment would have grown to $62,439 - a
524.39% 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 $56,834 - a 468.34% increase.

The charts above show Destiny I 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 Fidelity Systematic Investment Plans (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 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.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS:  Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Destiny II on March 31, 1989. As the chart shows, by March
31, 1999, the value of the investment would have grown to $69,480 - a
594.80% 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 $56,834 - a 468.34% increase.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW



MARKET RECAP
On the heels of a dramatic late summer slump,
stocks forged a spirited comeback over the
six-month period that ended March 31, 1999. In a
time where volatility was the rule, the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index posted an impressive 27.34%
return. Similarly, the NASDAQ, seemingly bent on
re-writing the record books, returned 45.57% for
the same period. Amid the tumult in global
economies early in the period, investors fled
stocks, seeking refuge in U.S. Treasuries and
driving their yields to a 30-year low. In the fall, to
inoculate the U.S. economy against the global
contagion, the Federal Reserve Board provided
faltering domestic equity markets with the
stimulus they needed, in the form of three 0.25%
interest-rate cuts. Led by high-flying Internet and
technology issues, and buoyed by strong
consumer spending entering the new year, the S&P
500, Dow Jones Industrial Average and NASDAQ
soared to record highs in January. Investors,
although steadied by the belief that the U.S.
economy was less inflation prone and unlikely to
experience a dramatic downturn, were still not
convinced. This uncertainty fueled the volatility in
the marketplace over the last two months of the
period as many cautious investors chose to take
profits. Others migrated toward the perceived
predictability of large-company stocks, which
helped the Dow pass the 10,000-mark en route to
closing out the period up 25.80%.

An interview with
George A. Vanderheiden,
Portfolio Manager of
Fidelity Destiny I Portfolio

Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS, GEORGE?

A. It was a disappointing period overall. Although the fund returned
19.35% for the six months ending March 31, 1999, it underperformed
both its benchmark and its peers. During the period, the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index returned 27.34%, while the growth funds average, as
measured by Lipper Inc., was 28.23%. The fund also underperformed its
benchmark and peer group over the past 12 months. For the one-year
period ending March 31, 1999, the fund's return was 12.48%, while the
S&P 500 and the growth funds average returned 18.46% and 13.56%,
respectively.

Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE REASONS WHY IT PROVED TO BE SUCH A
CHALLENGING PERIOD FOR THE FUND?

A. Probably the main cause for the fund's underperformance was that
over the course of the period I tilted the fund toward value stocks.
Stocks with value characteristics can be defined as those that are
misperceived or mispriced by the market, where the company's
fundamentals argue for a higher valuation. This shift is not a new
approach for me. I've used the approach of tilting the fund toward
value when I thought value was attractive relative to growth, just as
I've tilted toward growth at the expense of value. I've used this
approach many times during the 19 years that I've been running the
fund. In this case, however, perhaps my prediction was a bit early.
Over the past six months - particularly since the October low - it
remained a growth-oriented market. Growth was generally the only thing
that worked. Small-cap stocks didn't work. Value didn't work. It was
just a very narrow, one-sided market. To illustrate, 77% of the S&P
500's return in the first quarter of 1999 came from its top 10 stocks.
But I still think that value is the most attractive part of the
market, as I'll discuss in more detail later in this report in the
callout box (SEE PAGE 8).

Q. WHAT ELSE CONTRIBUTED TO THE FUND'S UNDERPERFORMANCE?

A. The fund's underweighting in large-cap technology positions
relative to the S&P 500 was certainly a big factor. Technology drove
the index throughout the period. In fact, nine of the top-10
best-performing stocks in the S&P 500 for 1998 were technology stocks.
But I think technology has seen its peak. During the period, I felt
that tech valuations were already very stretched - meaning that their
values were inflated. And I also believe that the bump we've seen in
capital spending to resolve Y2K issues is going to go away. Once these
Year 2000 issues have been resolved, I think you'll see a flattening
in sales for much of the technology sector.

Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE BRIGHT SPOTS FOR THE FUND, GEORGE?

A. Strong stock selection in the retail and utilities sectors
contributed a great deal to the fund's overall return. In the retail
sector, Wal-Mart continued to shine. Its domestic focus and strong
earnings gains made it an attractive holding during downturns and
disruptions in foreign markets. Home Depot was another retail pick
that contributed well to fund performance, for the same reasons as
Wal-Mart. One example of a utility stock that has had a persistent run
of outstanding performance is U.K.-based telecommunications company
Vodafone, which benefited from solid earnings growth. Technology
holding Solectron, a regular in the portfolio for several years, also
performed well. The company is a contract electronic manufacturer -
meaning technology companies outsource their manufacturing to
Solectron. This stock has gone up 10-fold since I first started buying
it in 1992.

Q. THE FUND TYPICALLY OWNS A SIZABLE PERCENTAGE OF FIXED-INCOME
INVESTMENTS. HOW DID THE BOND PORTION OF THE PORTFOLIO FARE OVER THE
PAST SIX MONTHS?

A. Having any sizable stake in bonds over the last six months - as the
fund did - hurt performance relative to the S&P 500. Earlier in the
period, I began to sell bonds when yields dropped below 5% and prices
were at high levels - to the fund's benefit - reducing the portfolio's
bond exposure from about 13% to approximately 8% by the end of the
period. After the aggressive easing of monetary policy by the Federal
Reserve Board in the fall of 1998, equity markets skyrocketed to new
highs. Given the attractive returns of stocks, fixed-income
investments paled in comparison. This caused bond prices to drop and
yields to increase before I could reduce the fund's stake further.
That said, I do think the environment for bonds is once again starting
to look attractive. Japanese selling of U.S. Treasuries has subsided -
in fact, the Japanese are now major buyers - while the supply of
Treasuries is poised to shrink as the U.S. government retires
additional debt. Those are indications of an impending positive
supply/demand balance in the bond market.

Q. WHICH STOCKS TURNED IN A DISAPPOINTING
SIX-MONTH PERFORMANCE?

A. Philip Morris was the largest relative detractor to performance.
Its stock was punished in light of the company's ongoing litigation
battles. However, its operating profits were still tremendous and I
believe its price has bottomed. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which help
provide housing-related financial services for low and moderate income
families, both underperformed expectations. A coalition of big banks
and mortgage companies are lobbying in Washington to limit the fee
income that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac receive from technology
developments that immediately tell whether an applicant is eligible
for a loan. This process used to take days, but now it can be done in
mere minutes, which has brought the cost down astronomically. This
puts a small bank - with access to this new technology - on the same
playing field as a big bank, and the big banks don't like it. Although
I don't think this coalition will succeed, it has caused nervous
investor sentiment around the stock, but I remain bullish about Fannie
Mae's and Freddie Mac's prospects.

Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND DURING THE NEXT FEW MONTHS,
GEORGE?

A. As I mentioned earlier, I believe value stocks - such as the
economically sensitive cyclicals - are ready to make a move. The world
economy appears to have improved, the U.S. economy continues to grow,
and we're starting to see pricing power - the ability to raise prices
- - across cyclical industries such as airlines, homebuilders, chemicals
and several others. This environment bodes well for the future of
value, and that's where I'll be focusing my investment strategy in the
immediate future.

GEORGE VANDERHEIDEN ON HIS SHIFT
FROM GROWTH TO VALUE STOCKS:

"There are a couple of reasons why I'm making a
transition from growth to value. First, when the
corporate earnings outlook is slipping, growth
tends to outperform value. This is because growth
becomes scarcer, so investors lean toward
companies with consistently strong growth
prospects year after year. When earnings get
better, you can find growth in many more places,
not just a narrow band of growth stocks. That's
when value stocks start to rebound, which I feel
is happening now. The rate of earnings growth
bottomed out in the third quarter of 1998, then
improved in the fourth quarter and in the first
quarter of 1999. We had 122 interest-rate cuts in
75 countries since last October. This massive
reflationary effort - the attempt to jump start
global economies - is the bull case for value and
cyclical stocks.

"Over the past three decades, each time we had
shifts from growth to value, they happened right
when we saw the first quarter of improved
earnings. The other indicator of a trend toward
value is increased pricing power - a company's
ability to price their products higher than inflation.
That also translates to increased earnings.
Currently, cyclical industries are gaining pricing
power. If this pricing sticks, these companies can
surprise on the upside, and that's why I've tilted
the fund to be a more value-oriented portfolio."

An interview with
Beth Terrana, Portfolio
Manager of Fidelity
Destiny II Portfolio

Q. HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM, BETH?

A. The fund performed very well during the period. For the six-months
ending March 31, 1999, Destiny II returned 32.26%. This outperformed
both the Standard & Poor's 500 Index and the growth funds average, as
measured by Lipper Inc., which returned 27.34% and 28.23%,
respectively, during the same period. The fund also outperformed its
benchmark and peer group over the past 12 months. For the one-year
period ending March 31, 1999 the fund returned 22.18%, the S&P 500
returned 18.46% and the growth funds average had a 13.56% return.

Q. WHAT'S YOUR TAKE ON THE MARKET VOLATILITY WE'VE SEEN OVER THE PAST
SIX MONTHS?

A. Before the market correction that began last summer, U.S. stocks
were reflecting a very rosy earnings outlook. However, in the third
quarter of 1998, the market intensified its speculation that the
economic turmoil in emerging countries would further slow the already
softening domestic economy, pushing the U.S. into a recession. As one
company after another reported weakening business conditions the stock
market reacted, often violently. On the positive side, many high
quality companies were unfairly penalized and this created a number of
attractive buying opportunities.

Q. GIVEN THE VOLATILE MARKET OF RECENT MONTHS, HOW WAS THE FUND ABLE
TO DELIVER SUCH STRONG PERFORMANCE?

A. The fund's outstanding performance was driven by focusing on
companies with improving financial returns. Stock prices tend to
follow returns, and improving returns generally lead to higher
price/earnings multiples. In a world of slowing corporate profit
growth, historically high valuations and volatile markets, it is
critical to identify companies with improving financial returns. Even
more important, I was successful at following my strategy of hitting
singles and doubles, rather than trying for home runs - because trying
for home runs also means a lot of strike-outs. Consequently, the fund
had few dismal performers. This strategy of avoiding the losers was
particularly effective over the past three months given the narrow
breadth of the market, where the top 10 performers accounted for 77%
of the S&P 500's return.

Q. WHAT WERE SOME OF THE FACTORS BEHIND THE FUND'S OUTPERFORMANCE OF
BOTH ITS BENCHMARK - THE S&P 500 - AND ITS PEER GROUP DURING THE
PERIOD?

A. Destiny II outdistanced the S&P 500 and Lipper peers because of the
fund's stock selection among large, industry-leading companies. Time
Warner, the top contributor during the period, continued to be
rewarded for its improving financial returns. MCI Worldcom and America
Online, both big contributors to performance, benefited from the
increasing penetration of the Internet as a viable medium through
which people and businesses communicate. Advertising conglomerate
Omnicom performed well; having a strong brand identity is crucial to
many companies' success, and Omnicom can help build brand recognition.
General Electric was also a strong-performing holding. GE has
tremendous product lines with dominant share in most of its markets -
attributes that were particularly appealing to nervous investors
concerned with financial turmoil in emerging countries and the lofty
valuation of U.S. equities.

Q. CHASE MANHATTAN AND AMERICAN EXPRESS WERE NEW ENTRIES INTO THE
FUND'S TOP-10 HOLDINGS. DOES THAT MEAN YOU ARE BULLISH ON THE FINANCE
SECTOR IN GENERAL?

A. Not at this time. I actually reduced the fund's exposure to the
finance sector because I was concerned that revenue growth was slowing
in the industry, and it would prove difficult for some of the newly
merged companies to drive down costs. At the same time, I think the
growth of the Internet may either hurt banks' revenue growth or hurt
their pricing. In my opinion, financial products that are currently
sold in branches will increasingly be sold over the Web. Therefore, I
felt the profit dynamics of the industry were deteriorating.
Typically, I don't make sector bets. The fund's sector weights are
almost always an outgrowth of bottom-up stock selection. Finance was
really the only meaningful industry change I made over the six-month
period.

Q. GIVEN YOUR IMPRESSIONS ABOUT THE FINANCE SECTOR, WHAT WAS YOUR
ATTRACTION TO CHASE MANHATTAN AND AMERICAN EXPRESS?

A. Chase Manhattan is a global financial services firm with markedly
improved financial discipline and is poised to continue to take market
share from smaller, less well-capitalized competitors. Even as the
company's earnings declined during the Asian crisis last summer, Chase
Manhattan continued to have a return on equity above the industry
average. The market continues to underestimate the company's earnings
power and growth rate. American Express is another well-managed
business with a strong franchise and accelerating revenue growth. Over
the past few years, it focused on the profitability of its credit card
business and paid less attention to market share erosion. Now American
Express is refocused on both profitability and card growth. Its travel
businesses also performed well.

Q. WHICH STOCKS DID NOT PERFORM AS YOU HOPED?

A. CVS underperformed the market during the period. After its stock
hit an all-time high last summer, the company stopped beating earnings
estimates and improvements in return on investment stalled. There were
also fears about the impact of the Internet on CVS. Many investors
worried that online drug stores would take market share from
traditional drugstore chains. However, I believe people want to speak
to the pharmacist in person. So I'm not sure the consumer has a good
reason to use the Web to fill a prescription. I continue to believe
that strong pharmacy fundamentals will help CVS sustain double-digit
earnings growth in 1999. Tobacco giant Philip Morris also
underperformed, due almost entirely to its ongoing struggle with
litigation. Disney suffered from slowing sales in Asia, from
weaker-than-expected sales at the box-office, and from concerns with
the opening of competing theme parks in the U.S. and the resulting
impact on Disney's park attendance.

Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND DURING THE NEXT FEW MONTHS?

A. I believe inflation will remain in check and that the U.S. economy
will continue to be robust. Global attention will remain focused on
the U.S. consumer. High employment levels, high personal income and
low interest rates have made U.S. consumers one of the last strengths
in the global economy, so their performance will heavily impact the
direction of many economies. With improving economic and financial
conditions in Asia, Latin America and many other parts of the world,
we may see a broadening in the market. This could result in a move
away from the narrow group of large-cap growth stocks that have been
so dominant in recent years. Whatever the outcome, I will continue to
choose stocks through fundamental, bottom-up analysis.

BETH TERRANA ON HOW THE INTERNET
BOOM IS CHANGING COMPANIES' BUSINESS MODELS:

"The market tends to focus on the Internet's
obvious beneficiaries, such as America Online and
Amazon.com. What many investors don't focus on
is how the Internet can and will change the nature
of logistics, distribution, employee training and
customer interaction across multiple industries
and business models. Those companies that can
execute well will benefit from improved
productivity and potentially dramatically decreased
costs. This will allow them to reduce prices and
increase market share in their respective
industries, while simultaneously improving their
profitability and asset utilization. The ability to
reduce prices while maintaining profitability will be
critical because the Internet will make pricing
transparent; businesses and consumers will know
what they can buy things for and what everyone
else is selling them for. Consequently, the Internet
may provide a way to completely reinvent historic
business practices for many companies. Within all
industries, the valuation gap between those
companies using the Internet to improve their
financial returns and increase their market share,
and those that are not, may widen. As a portfolio
manager, I have been successful at identifying
companies in the midst of change and assessing
whether their stock prices accurately reflect
their new business conditions. I feel confident I
can help Destiny II shareholders benefit from
these revolutionary changes."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 (UNAUDITED)


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, as an open-end management investment
company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Each fund is
authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. In January, 1999,
the Board of Trustees approved the creation of an additional class of
shares for each of Destiny I and Destiny II, Class N shares. Offering
of the new class commenced on April 30, 1999. Class N shares are
subject to an annual distribution and service fee of 0.25% of the
class' average net assets. Class N shares will also pay FSC a transfer
agent fee that may not exceed an annual rate of 0.63% of the class'
average net assets. Shares of each new class will be offered publicly
through Fidelity Systematic Investment Plans: Destiny Plans I: New
Class and Destiny Plans II: New Class. Shares of the Original Class,
renamed Class O, will continue to be offered publicly through Fidelity
Systematic Investment Plans: Destiny Plans I and Destiny Plans II (the
Plans), a unit investment trust with two series. The financial
statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles which permit 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 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
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 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,
passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), partnerships and losses
deferred due to wash sales. The funds 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. Certain funds 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 by investing in U.S. Treasury securities
and repurchase agreements for these securities. Income distributions
from the Cash Fund are declared daily and paid monthly from net
interest income. Income distributions earned by the funds are recorded
as interest income in the accompanying financial statements.

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 rate is .17% and
 .30% for the Destiny I and Destiny II funds, 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
(plus/minus).24% of each fund's average net assets up to and including
$100,000,000 and (plus/minus).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 annualized rates of .30% and .46%, respectively of
average net assets after the performance adjustment for the Destiny I
and Destiny II funds, respectively.

Fidelity Distributors Corporation, an affiliate of FMR and sponsor of
the Plans, received $536,261 and $1,683,619 as its portion of the
Creation and Sales Charges on sales of Destiny Plans I and Destiny
Plans II, respectively, for the period.

TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an
affiliate of FMR, is the funds' transfer, dividend disbursing and
shareholder servicing agent. FSC receives account fees and asset-based
fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FSC pays
for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder reports,
except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were
equivalent to an annualized rate of .01% and .01% of the average net
assets of Destiny I and Destiny II, respectively.

ACCOUNTING FEES. FSC maintains each fund's accounting records. The 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 $328,229 and $199,760, respectively for the period.

the fund's expenses. For the period, each fund's expenses were reduced

custodian and transfer agent whereby 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 custodian and transfer agent
fees were reduced by $389 and $9,907 for Destiny I and $9,213 and
$11,833, for Destiny II under these arrangements, respectively.

6. CHANGE IN INDEPENDENT AUDITOR.

Based on the recommendation of the Audit Committee of the funds, the
Board of Trustees has determined not to retain PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP as the funds' independent auditor and voted to appoint Deloitte &
Touche LLP for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999. During the
two most recent fiscal years, Pricewaterhouse Coopers LLP's audit
reports contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion; nor
were their reports qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or
accounting principles. Further, there were no disagreements between
the funds and Pricewaterhouse Coopers LLP on accounting principles,
financial statement disclosure or audit scope, which if not resolved
to the satisfaction of Pricewaterhouse Coopers LLP would have caused
them to make reference to the disagreement in their report.
