PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
If you can leave your money invested over the long term, you can avoid the
results of the volatility that generally accompanies the stock market in
the short term, as we witnessed last year. You also can help to manage some
of the risks of investing through diversification. A stock fund is already
diversified because it invests in many issues. You can diversify even
further by placing some of your money in several different types of stock
funds or in other investment categories, such as bonds.
If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to consider
moving some of your investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain
amount of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each
performance figure includes changes in a fund's share price, plus
reinvestment of any dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits
the fund earns when it sells stocks that have grown in value).
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 PAST 1 PAST 5 PAST 10
YEAR YEARS YEARS
Fidelity Fund 21.09% 74.10% 261.71%
S&P 500(registered trademark) 26.07% 76.98% 293.40%
Average Growth & Income Fund 19.74% 69.84% 227.71%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, one, five, or 10 years. For example, if
you invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the
value of your investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's
returns to the performance of the Standard & Poor's Composite Index of 500
Stocks - a common proxy for the U.S. stock market. To measure how the
fund's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the
average growth & income fund, which reflects the performance of 374 growth
& income funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical
Services over the past 12 months. Both benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say
you invested $10,000 in Fidelity Fund on June 30, 1985. As the chart shows,
by June 30, 1995, the value of your investment would have grown to $36,171
- a 261.71% increase on your initial investment. For comparison, look at
how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the
same investment would have grown to $39,340 - a 293.40% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and return
of a fund that invests in stocks
will vary. That means if you
sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can
ride out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
Strong corporate earnings and a
favorable interest rate
environment helped the U.S.
stock market post strong returns
for the 12 months ended June 30,
1995. The Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 Stocks
finished the 12-month period with
a total return of 26.07% - well
above its historical annual
average of roughly 12%. With
inflation posing little threat,
interest rates fell during the first
half of 1995. Large-capitalization
stocks led the somewhat narrow
market rally. While consumer
nondurable and financial stocks
generally performed well,
technology companies - whose
goods and services benefited
from both corporate and
consumer demand - posted the
strongest earnings growth and
stock price gains. In February, the
Dow Jones Industrial Average
closed above 4000 for the first
time, and continued hitting record
highs before closing the period at
4556.10. Returns from foreign
markets were varied, as investors
brought capital back to the U.S.
Emerging foreign markets
rebounded somewhat from
Mexico's devaluation of the peso
in December 1994. The Morgan
Stanley Emerging Markets Free
Index was down 0.02% for the 12
months ended June 30. The
Morgan Stanley EAFE (Europe,
Australia, Far East) Index
returned 1.65% for the year
ended June 30. European
markets have fared well through
the first half of 1995 - after a
difficult year in 1994 - while the
Japanese market has continued
to struggle.
An interview with Beth Terrana, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Fund
Q. BETH, HOW DID THE FUND DO OVER THE PAST YEAR?
A. For the 12 months ended June 30, 1995, the fund had a total return of
21.09%. That outpaced the average growth and income fund, which returned
19.74% during the same period, according to Lipper Analytical Services.
Q. IT'S BEEN A STRONG PAST 12 MONTHS FOR THE STOCK MARKET. WHAT,
SPECIFICALLY, DROVE THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. I would say that how the fund's investments broke down by sector or
industry wasn't nearly as important to its performance as was a core group
of stocks that were among the fund's largest investments through much of
the year. It was these top 10 or 20 stocks that really drove performance.
Several - such as British Petroleum, Scott Paper, and chemicals and
plastics producer Hercules - were successful corporate restructuring
stories. Other stocks, such as Philip Morris, were extremely cheap when I
bought them, and have since risen in price to more closely reflect their
growth rates. Yet another, American Cyanamid, benefited from a takeover -
in this case by American Home Products.
Q. DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS, TECHNOLOGY FAR AND AWAY HAS BEEN THE
MARKET'S STRONGEST PERFORMING SECTOR. HAS THE FUND CAPITALIZED?
A. It has. The fund had a 12.1% investment in technology stocks on June 30.
In fact, IBM and Intel were the two largest positive contributors to the
fund's performance over the past six months. I've talked about IBM before;
the company continued to benefit from effective cost cutting and is
generating a very strong cash flow. As for Intel, worldwide demand for
computer chips shows no signs of slowing, and the company's earnings have
exceeded most analysts' expectations. The overall technology story is
simple: businesses worldwide are embracing technology as the most effective
means to improve corporate productivity, which has led to rapid earnings
growth for companies that provide technological goods and services.
Actually, productivity improvement has become a central investing theme for
the fund.
Q. HOW SO?
A. In order to thrive in the competitive global economy, businesses have to
become the low-cost producers within their given industries. The way to do
that is to improve productivity by roughly 5% to 8% a year, year in and
year out. Many companies have completed the first step - cutting costs,
mainly by downsizing their workforces. But at some point, you have to make
your existing workforce substantially more productive, and technology does
that for you. So many U.S. companies have realized this that our country
has become the world's low-cost producer of goods and services. That makes
U.S. manufacturers well positioned to benefit from a global economic
recovery.
Q. DOES THIS THEME PLAY OUT IN OTHER SECTORS OF THE FUND BESIDES
TECHNOLOGY?
A. Yes. I've maintained a substantial investment in traditional cyclical
stocks - those that generally benefit from strong economic activity. These
companies have taken the steps I just described, and I believe they're
primed for strong earnings growth over the next few years. Examples include
heavy equipment manufacturer Caterpillar, farm equipment producer Deere,
and railroads such as Burlington Northern and CSX.
Q. BETH, WHAT WAS YOUR BIGGEST INVESTING REGRET OVER THE PAST YEAR?
A. That I didn't increase the fund's investments in financial stocks,
namely banks, sooner. Last fall, I felt that bank stocks weren't cheap and
that, in an environment of higher interest rates, banks would have a
tougher time growing earnings. That's why the fund's investments in the
financial sector totaled just 3.1% six months ago. As it turned out, banks
were able to grow earnings through effective cost cutting and industry
consolidation, and the stocks rallied. I have since increased the fund's
stake in this sector to 14.0% through purchases of stocks such as Citicorp,
Chemical Banking, Chase Manhattan and First Chicago. Because they've
cleaned up their balance sheets, many banks are generating a lot of excess
cash. They've been using this excess capital to buy back their own stocks,
which obviously enhances shareholder value. Because of the steps banks have
taken to improve their fiscal health, I believe they may have the ability
to sustain solid earnings growth even in the event of a short-term downturn
in the economy.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE REST
OF 1995?
A. One thing that has helped the stock market recently is large inflows of
cash. Corporations continue to buy back their own stocks and individual
investors continue to pour money into the market. These supply/demand
characteristics for stocks should remain positive. However, where the
market goes from here will depend heavily on the direction of the economy
and interest rates, and those are tough things to predict. I'll continue to
focus on my core themes, and try to find new ways that the fund can profit
from this theme of improving productivity. As always, I'll emphasize those
companies with attractive stock valuations and solid prospects for earnings
growth.

BETH TERRANA ON THE FUND'S
"FARM THEME:"
"I've positioned a portion of the
fund to capitalize on what I
believe is a favorable outlook
for U.S. companies that export
food and farm-related
products. Often, when people
think of selling U.S. goods in
emerging markets in Asia and
Latin America, they think of
products like Coke, Pepsi and
Marlboro cigarettes. But not
many people talk about the
inclusion of chicken and beef in
the diet of people who live in
these countries, and their efforts
to upgrade their agricultural
capabilities.
"This theme has led the fund to
invest in beef and pork
producer IBP, fertilizer
manufacturers such as Potash
Corporation of Saskatchewan
and Agrium, and farm
equipment manufacturer
Deere, among others. Not only
are U.S. companies providing
food for people in these
countries, they're helping them
help themselves."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended June 30, 1995
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Hastings Street Trust (the
trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust
is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust. The following summarizes the significant
accounting policies of the fund:
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 maturing within sixty days
of their purchase date 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 fund 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 forward currency
contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions,
and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and
the U.S. dollar amount actually received. 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, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
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 fund is informed of the
ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment income
is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is
uncertain.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
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 foreign
currency transactions, market discount, 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 and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income (loss) and
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments 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.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund may use foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign securities and to manage
the fund's currency exposure. Contracts to buy generally are used to
acquire exposure to foreign currencies, while contracts to sell are used to
hedge the fund's investments against currency fluctuations. Also, a
contract to buy or sell can offset a previous contract. 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 forward foreign currency contracts is determined
using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission(the SEC), the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may
transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts.
These balances are invested in one or more
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT - CONTINUED
repurchase agreements that mature in 60 days or less from the date of
purchase, and are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. FMR, the fund's
investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of these
underlying securities remains at least equal to the resale price.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $3,335,789,000 and $2,764,139,000, respectively, of which U.S.
government and government agency obligations aggregated $159,872,000 and
$142,128,000, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
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 the 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 .2850% to .5200% for the period July 1, 1994 to July 31,
1994 and .2700% to .5200% for the period August 1, 1994 to June 30, 1995.
In the event that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in
effect during those periods, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates,
as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee. The annual
individual fund fee rate is .09%. For the period, the management fee was
equivalent to an annual rate of .41% of average net assets.
DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN. Pursuant to the Distribution and Service
Plan (the Plan), and in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, FMR or
the fund's distributor, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an
affiliate of FMR, may use their resources to pay administrative and
promotional expenses related to the sale of the fund's shares. Subject to
the approval of the Board of Trustees, the Plan also authorizes payments to
third parties that assist in the sale of the fund's shares or render
shareholder support services. FMR or FDC has informed the fund that
payments made to third parties under the Plan amounted to $21,000 for the
period.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
During the period July 1,1994 to December 31, 1994, FSC received fees based
on the type, size, number of accounts and the number of transactions made
by shareholders. Effective January 1, 1995, the Board of Trustees approved
a revised transfer agent contract pursuant to which FSC
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
TRANSFER AGENT FEES - CONTINUED
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.
ACCOUNTING AND SECURITY LENDING FEES. FSC maintains the 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. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,670,000 for the period.
5. SECURITY LENDING.
The fund loaned securities to certain brokers who paid the fund negotiated
lenders' fees. These fees are included in interest income. The fund
receives U.S. Treasury obligations and/or cash as collateral against the
loaned securities,
in an amount at least equal to 102% of the market value of the loaned
securities at the inception of each loan. This collateral must be
maintained at not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned
securities during the period of the loan. At period end, the value of the
securities loaned and the value of collateral amounted to $23,968,000 and
$24,498,000, respectively.
6. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the fund's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$453,000 under this arrangement.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
If you can leave your money invested over the long term, you can avoid the
results of the volatility that generally accompanies the stock market in
the short term, as we witnessed last year. You also can help to manage some
of the risks of investing through diversification. A stock fund is already
diversified because it invests in many issues. You can diversify even
further by placing some of your money in several different types of stock
funds or in other investment categories, such as bonds.
If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to consider
moving some of your investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain
amount of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each
performance figure includes changes in a fund's share price, plus
reinvestment of any dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits
the fund earns when it sells securities that have grown in value). Fidelity
Fifty had a 3% sales charge, which was waived beginning January 1, 1995
through December 31, 1996.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 PAST 1 LIFE OF
YEAR FUND
Fidelity Fifty 30.26% 32.60%
Fidelity Fifty (incl. 3% sales charge) 26.36% 28.62%
S&P 500(registered trademark) 26.07% 24.62%
Average Capital Appreciation Fund 22.17% n/a
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, one year, or since the fund began on
September 17, 1993. For example, if you invested $1,000 in a fund that had
a 5% return, over the past year, the value of your investment would be
$1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the performance of the
Standard & Poor's Composite Index of 500 Stocks - a common proxy for the
U.S. stock market. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against
its peers, you can compare it to the average capital appreciation fund,
which reflects the performance of over 145 capital appreciation funds with
similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical Services over the past 12
months. Both benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if
any, and exclude the effects of sales charges.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity
Fifty on September 17, 1993, and paid a 3% sales charge. As the chart
shows, by June 30, 1995, the value of your investment would have grown to
$12,862 - a 28.62% increase on your initial investment. For comparison,
look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With dividends
reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $12,462 - a
24.62% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and
return of a fund that invests in
stocks will vary. That means if
you sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can
ride out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
Strong corporate earnings and a
favorable interest rate
environment helped the U.S.
stock market post strong returns
for the 12 months ended June 30,
1995. The Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 Stocks
finished the 12-month period with
a total return of 26.07% - well
above its historical annual
average of roughly 12%. With
inflation posing little threat,
interest rates fell during the first
half of 1995. Large-capitalization
stocks led the somewhat narrow
market rally. While consumer
nondurable and financial stocks
generally performed well,
technology companies - whose
goods and services benefited
from both corporate and
consumer demand - posted the
strongest earnings growth and
stock price gains. In February, the
Dow Jones Industrial Average
closed above 4000 for the first
time, and continued hitting record
highs before closing the period at
4556.10. Returns from foreign
markets were varied, as investors
brought capital back to the U.S.
Emerging foreign markets
rebounded somewhat from
Mexico's devaluation of the peso
in December 1994. The Morgan
Stanley Emerging Markets Free
Index was down 0.02% for the 12
months ended June 30. The
Morgan Stanley EAFE (Europe,
Australia, Far East) Index
returned 1.65% for the year
ended June 30. European
markets have fared well through
the first half of 1995 - after a
difficult year in 1994 - while the
Japanese market has continued
to struggle.
An interview with Scott Stewart, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Fifty
Q. HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED, SCOTT?
A. I'm pleased to say that the fund has done very well. Fidelity Fifty was
designed to add long-term value over its peers and the Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 Stocks rather than focus on any particular year.
Having said that, over the past 12 months, the fund finished ahead of both
the S&P 500 and its peer group. For the 12 months ended June 30, 1995, the
fund had a total return of 30.26%, compared to the total return of 22.17%
for the average capital appreciation fund tracked by Lipper Analytical
Services. Over the same 12 months, the S&P 500 had a total return of 26.07%
Q. WHAT HELPED THE FUND DO SO WELL?
A. There were several key reasons behind the portfolio's strong
performance. The primary source was individual stock selection. Basically,
I've found that the stocks in the fund outperformed other stocks within
their own industries and capitalization size range. The successful stock
picking was a direct result of the strength of Fidelity's fundamental
research. Secondary reasons included my discipline in striving to keep the
portfolio relatively fully invested, and the portfolio's overweighting
-relative to the S&P 500 - in technology stocks.
Q. THE FUND'S SIZE HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS. HOW DO
YOU MANAGE THE NEW ASSETS AS THEY COME IN?
A. I use stock market futures to temporarily invest the new assets that are
coming into the portfolio. I am always looking to buy stocks, but cash can
come in faster than I can spend it. Buying the futures can ensure the
portfolio will be fully invested in the stock market. Once the combination
of cash and futures reaches a certain level, I sell the futures and buy a
list of stocks. At the same time, I maintain a small position in cash and
short-term investments because they help temper the portfolio's relatively
high beta. Beta is a measure of a stock's - or a fund's - historical
sensitivity in relation to the rest of the market. A fund with a higher
beta likely will rise and fall more rapidly than the rest of the market. If
I kept 100% of the fund invested in stocks, the fund probably would have an
even higher beta.
Q. LET'S GET BACK TO TECHNOLOGY . . .
A. Technology investments - 24.0% of the fund at the end of the period -
have been among the best performers both in the fund and the market as a
whole. The fund benefited from having a heavier weighting in this sector
than the S&P 500. Its investments were diversified within the sector,
including such areas as computers, networking and telecommunications. As I
said in the last report, I'm not making a bet on the technology sector, I'm
just finding many attractive stocks that happen to be in the technology
area. Earnings in these companies have been driven by both corporate and
consumer demand. Of course, it's important to note that, historically,
technology stocks have tended to be more volatile than the market as a
whole.
Q. WHAT ARE SOME TECHNOLOGY INVESTMENTS THAT HAVE DONE WELL FOR THE FUND?
A. Two of the top performers over the past six months have been Applied
Materials and Credence Systems, both producers of semiconductor
manufacturing and testing equipment. The semiconductor business is
experiencing tremendous growth, and these companies should be a secondary
beneficiary of this growth boom. Tellabs also did well. It's a
manufacturing company that supplies switching equipment to the
telecommunications industry. Many cellular equipment company stocks have
soared over the past month or so; Tellabs is one of the leading suppliers
of products that can help telephone companies upgrade their cellular
networks for greater reliability and cost savings. The fund's investments
in Compaq and IBM, both computer companies, and in Oracle, a database
company that the fund no longer holds, also were positive contributors to
performance.
Q. WERE THERE INVESTMENTS OUTSIDE OF TECHNOLOGY THAT HELPED THE FUND?
A. Certainly. A stock that I sold before the end of the period to take
profits, American Home Products, a drug and pharmaceutical company, did
well, as did Clark Equipment. Clark is an industrial equipment manufacturer
that was taken over by Ingersoll-Rand; the fund benefited from holding
Clark stock when the company was acquired. And the fund profited from its
holdings in PepsiCo, one of the many large capitalization consumer
nondurable stocks that did well during the period. Many investors have
favored these investments because they are perceived to be
recession-resistant; demand for these products doesn't vary much,
regardless of the economic climate. Over the past six months, data has
indicated that the U.S. economy has slowed down, hence the attraction of
stocks like PepsiCo. In addition, PepsiCo has exhibited strong earnings in
most of its businesses.
Q. WHAT WERE SOME INVESTMENTS THAT DETRACTED FROM THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE?
A. Nucor, a steel company, was one. I bought the stock at a time when steel
prices were strengthening, and because the company offered a competitive
cost structure. Even though the company had a backlog of orders, its stock
price was hurt when steel prices began to drop after Mexican suppliers
implemented aggressive pricing policies. Another one, Data General, a
computer company, stumbled a bit as it was trying to restructure. And
Michaels Stores, a home decorations and crafts specialty retailer, decided
to cut prices, hurting short-term earnings prospects. By the end of the
period, the fund had no investments in any of these stocks.
Q. ONE OF THE FUND'S TOP 10 INVESTMENTS IS VODAFONE, A BRITISH COMPANY.
WHAT SORT OF STRATEGY DO YOU PURSUE WHEN DECIDING WHETHER TO MAKE AN
INVESTMENT IN AN OVERSEAS COMPANY?
A. I invest abroad in the same way I invest in the U.S. - company by
company. At times, foreign companies can offer better investment
opportunities than U.S. firms. For example, while most telephone companies'
stock prices have run up over the past few years, I believe there remains
substantial upside for Vodafone stock, primarily due to its exposure to
overseas cellular phone growth. I do recognize that foreign stocks can
increase risk in the portfolio. For example, there can be additional
currency risk in buying Vodafone compared to a U.S. company. When I
consider purchasing a foreign stock, I evaluate this risk and may make the
stock a smaller holding within the fund. In that sense, it's the same as
reviewing the risks presented by a high-priced stock or one that is not
easily traded. In addition, it's important to recognize that many U.S.
companies are exposed to currency risk, because they sell or have
operations overseas. Finally, foreign holdings also can improve the
portfolio's diversification.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. The market rally we've seen since the beginning of the year has been led
mainly by the larger capitalization companies. It is generally hoped that
mid-cap and smaller company stocks, as well as foreign markets, will follow
suit and perform well. For that to happen, particularly with small-cap
stocks, we'll need to see signs of a rebound in the economy. If the Federal
Reserve Board continues to drop short-term interest rates, which it did
just after the end of the period, that could help the economy and smaller
stocks. If short-term interest rates come down further, we could continue
to see strength in the market. However, with this portfolio I don't try to
predict the direction of the market. My goal will be to stay as fully
invested as possible and to choose my investments stock by stock.

SCOTT STEWART ON PICKING
STOCKS FOR A GROWING FUND:
"As the assets in the fund
grow, I'm faced with a
challenge because I only can
invest in a limited number of
names. If I were managing a
fund without that kind of
structure, it would be easy to
use the new assets to buy a
new stock instead of asking
myself whether I want to put
more money into stocks that
are already in the fund. As it
is, the fund's investment
objective provides important
discipline, because if I'm not
willing to put more money into
the stocks in the fund, then I
need to seriously consider
selling them. I have to make
sure I believe that every stock
in the fund is a good one.
"When new money comes
into the fund, I look through
the portfolio to see which
positions I'd like to increase.
I'm always trying to spend
down the fund's growing cash
position. I go through the
stocks, and if a company's
earnings forecasts have
increased, if the stock price
has dropped, or if there has
been a positive new
development, it's an easy
decision to increase the
weight of that stock in the
fund. If I don't feel compelled
to make a purchase with the
new assets on a given day,
then I use equity index futures
contracts to track the broad
performance of the market,
start selling stocks, and look
for new investments as
replacements."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended June 30, 1995
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Fifty (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Hastings Street Trust (the
trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust
is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust. The following summarizes the significant
accounting policies of the fund:
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 maturing within sixty days of their purchase date 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 fund 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 forward currency
contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions,
and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and
the U.S. dollar amount actually received. 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, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
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 fund is informed of the
ex-dividend date. 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 between the
funds in the trust.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
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 futures
and options transactions and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise
tax regulations. 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 and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income (loss) 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.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund may use foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign securities and to manage
the fund's currency exposure. Contracts to buy generally are used to
acquire exposure to foreign currencies, while contracts to sell are used to
hedge the fund's investments against currency fluctuations. Also, a
contract to buy or sell can offset a previous contract. 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 forward foreign currency contracts is determined
using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other affiliated
entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer
uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These
balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements that mature in
60 days or less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized by U.S.
Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market
2. OPERATING POLICIES - CONTINUED
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - CONTINUED
value is required to be at least 102% of the resale price at the time of
purchase. FMR, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for
determining that the value of these underlying securities remains at least
equal to the resale price.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS. The fund may use futures and options
contracts to manage its exposure to the stock market and to fluctuations in
interest rates. Buying futures, writing puts, and buying calls tend to
increase the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument. Selling futures,
buying puts, and writing calls tend to decrease the fund's exposure to the
underlying instrument, or hedge other fund investments. Futures contracts
involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the futures
variation margin reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The
underlying face amount at value is shown in the schedule of investments
under the caption "Futures Contracts." This amount reflects each contract's
exposure to the underlying instrument at period end. Losses may arise from
changes in the value of the underlying instruments, if there is an illiquid
secondary market for the contracts, or if the counterparties do not perform
under the contracts' terms.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day
by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Exchange-traded
options are valued using the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale,
the last offering price. Options traded over-the-counter are valued using
dealer-supplied valuations.
3. JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT.
At the end of the period, the fund had 20% or more of its total investments
in repurchase agreements through a joint trading account. These repurchase
agreements were with entities whose creditworthiness has been reviewed and
found satisfactory by FMR. The repurchase agreements were dated June 30,
1995 and due July 3, 1995. The maturity values of the joint trading account
investments were $26,258,451 at 6.15%. The investments in repurchase
agreements through the joint trading account are summarized as follows:
SUMMARY OF JOINT TRADING
Number of dealers or banks 22
Maximum amount with one dealer or bank 17.1%
Aggregate principal amount of agreements $15,088,144,000
Aggregate maturity amount of agreements $15,095,872,000
Aggregate market value of collateral $15,428,420,000
Coupon rates of collateral 0.0% to 13 3/4%
Maturity dates of collateral 7/31/95 to 2/15/25
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $141,396,475 and $99,820,871, respectively.
The market value of futures contracts opened and closed during the period
amounted to $81,671,675 and $67,311,666, respectively.
5. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the 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 the 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 .2850% to .5200% for the period July 1, 1994 to July 31,
1994 and .2700% to .5200% for the period August 1, 1994 to June 30, 1995.
In the event that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in
effect during those periods, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates,
as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee. The annual
individual fund fee rate is .30%. The basic fee is subject to a performance
adjustment (up to a maximum of (plus/minus) .20%) based on the fund's
investment performance as compared to the appropriate index over a
specified period of time. The fund's performance adjustment took effect in
September 1994. For the period, the management fee was equivalent to an
annual rate of .64% of average net assets after the performance adjustment.
SALES LOAD. For the period, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an
affiliate of FMR and the general distributor of the fund, received sales
charges of $60,600 on sales of shares of the fund. Beginning January 1,
1995 through December 31, 1996, FDC has voluntarily waived the sales charge
(3% of the offering price) on sales of shares.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
During the period July 1, 1994 to December 31, 1994, FSC received fees
based on the type, size, number of accounts and the number of transactions
made by shareholders. Effective January 1, 1995, the Board of Trustees
approved a revised transfer agent contract pursuant to which 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.
ACCOUNTING FEES. FSC maintains the 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. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $57,628 for the period.
6. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the fund's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$14,845 under this arrangement.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Hastings Street Trust and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Fifty:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Fidelity Hastings Street Trust: Fidelity Fifty, including the schedule of
portfolio investments, as of June 30, 1995, and the related statement of
operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets
and the financial highlights for the year then ended and for the period
September 17, 1993 (commencement of operations) to June 30, 1994. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits 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
securities owned as of June 30, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Fidelity Hastings Street Trust: Fidelity Fifty as of June 30,1995, the
results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net
assets and the financial highlights for the year then ended and for the
period September 17, 1993 (commencement of operations) to June 30, 1994, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

DISTRIBUTIONS
The Board of Trustees of Fidelity Fifty voted to pay on August 7, 1995, to
shareholders of record at the opening of business on August 4, 1995, a
distribution of $.69 derived from capital gains realized from sales of
portfolio securities and a dividend of $.06 from net investment income.
A total of 0.91% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year was
derived from interest on U.S. Government securities which is generally
exempt from state income tax.
A total of 100% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year
qualifies for the dividends-received deductions for corporate shareholders.
The fund will notify shareholders in January 1996 of these percentages for
use in preparing 1995 income tax returns.
