TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We are pleased to report CGM Fixed Income Fund increased 27.3% during the year
just ended, comparing favorably with the Merrill Lynch Master Bond Index which
rose 18.5% during 1995. For the fourth quarter of the year, CGM Fixed Income
Fund returned 3.3% compared to the Merrill Lynch Master Bond Index which
increased 4.3% over the same period.

THE YEAR IN REVIEW AND INVESTMENT OUTLOOK
1995 was a banner year both for the U.S. economy and the securities markets.
Favorable trends established the previous year prevailed throughout 1995, almost
without exception. We continued to enjoy strong job growth, increased
productivity and higher corporate profits combined with moderate inflation as
measured by the Consumer Price Index. In November, the CPI stalled at October's
level, a positive indicator cited by the Federal Reserve Board as a reason to
lower the Federal Funds rate a quarter of a percent on December 19. The economy
is slowing and the Federal Reserve Board may well be calling for short-term
interest rates to come down in order to stimulate business.

The U.S. business outlook is also influenced by trends in other industrialized
nations, many of which are already lowering interest rates in an effort to spark
sluggish economies. Such precedent permits U.S. policymakers latitude in
reducing domestic short-term rates from current relatively high levels.

While economic slowing will raise some questions about future corporate profits,
those companies with prospects for increased earnings could find that lower
rates mean higher stock prices. Last year was a case in point when a surge in
corporate profits occurred while long-term interest rates declined producing the
sensational equity gains of 1995. Although we expect the combination of further
gains in corporate profits and slightly lower interest rates will lead to higher
securities markets, we anticipate increases will be more modest and the overall
environment, more volatile than that of 1995.

PORTFOLIO STRATEGY
In 1995, the bond market returned the third best single-year performance on
record. A slow growth economy, low inflation, Federal Reserve Board
accommodation and talk about deficit reduction all contributed to the favorable
market. Best returns came from long Treasuries; however average returns in the
corporate bond and convertible debt and preferred markets ranged from 22-25%.

CGM Fixed Income Fund outperformed the averages as a result of portfolio
maturity and duration, both of which were slightly longer than market;
significant exposure to lower investment grade corporate debt where quality
spreads continued to narrow throughout the year; and, substantial holdings in
bank and airline convertibles which benefited from strong underlying stock
performance.

The CGM Fixed Income Fund portfolio maturity remains a bit longer than the
market with a distinct nod to corporate debt and convertible securities. The
three largest industry positions are airlines, money center banks and media. The
three largest holdings are Citicorp, Chemical Banking Corporation and Delta Air
Lines, Inc.

                            CGM FIXED INCOME FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- DECEMBER 31, 1995

1. The Fund is a series of CGM Trust which is organized as a Massachusetts
business trust under the laws of Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and
Declaration of Trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust has
three other funds whose financial statements are not presented herein. The Fund
commenced operations on March 17, 1992. The investment objective of the Fund is
to maximize total return by investing in debt securities and preferred stock
that provide current income, capital appreciation or a combination of both
income and appreciation.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The
financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A.  SECURITY VALUATION -- Corporate debt securities are valued on the basis of
    valuations furnished by a pricing service authorized by the Board of
    Trustees, which determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading
    units of such securities using market information, transactions for
    comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are
    generally recognized by institutional traders. United States government debt
    securities are valued at the current closing bid, as last reported by a
    pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees. Equity securities are
    valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized
    by the Board of Trustees, which service provides the last reported sale
    price for securities listed on a national securities exchange or on the
    NASDAQ national market system or, if no sale was reported and in the case of
    over-the-counter securities not so listed, the last reported bid price.
    Short-term investments having a maturity of sixty days or less are stated at
    amortized cost, which approximates value.

B.  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions
    are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is
    executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest
    income is recorded on the accrual basis. Interest income is increased by the
    accretion of discount. Premium is amortized against interest income with a
    corresponding decrease in the cost basis. Net gain or loss on securities
    sold is determined on the identified cost basis.

C.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
    requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
    companies, and to distribute to its shareholders all of its taxable income
    and net realized capital gains within the prescribed time period.
    Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been made. At December
    31, 1995, the capital loss carryover available to offset future realized
    gains aggregated approximately $2,155,000 and expires in the year 2002.

D.  DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends and distributions
    are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. The classification of
    income and capital gains distributions is determined in accordance with
    income tax regulations. Permanent book and tax differences relating to
    shareholder distributions may result in reclassifications to paid-in
    capital. Undistributed net investment income, accumulated net investment
    loss, or distributions in excess of net investment income may include
    temporary book and tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent
    period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is
    distributed in the following year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

E.  ORGANIZATION EXPENSE -- Costs incurred in 1992 in connection with the Fund's
    organization and registration amounting to $76,426 have been paid by the
    Fund. These costs are being amortized over 60 months beginning March 17,
    1992.

2.  PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES -- For the year ended December 31, 1995,
purchases and sales of securities other than United States government
obligations and short-term investments aggregated $38,704,198 and $42,701,457,
respectively. Purchases and sales of United States government obligations
aggregated $5,121,016 and $3,173,711, respectively.

3.  A. MANAGEMENT FEES -- During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Fund
       incurred management fees of $167,688 payable to the Fund's investment
       adviser, Capital Growth Management Limited Partnership (CGM), certain
       officers and directors of which are also officers and trustees of the
       Fund. The management agreement provides for a fee at the annual rate of
       0.55% on the first $200 million of the Fund's average daily net assets,
       0.45% of the next $300 million and 0.35% of such assets in excess of $500
       million. CGM waived its entire fee. See Note 4.

    B. OTHER EXPENSES -- CGM performs certain administrative, accounting and
       other services for the Fund. The expenses of those services, which are
       paid to CGM by the Fund, include the following: (i) expenses for
       personnel performing bookkeeping, accounting, internal auditing and
       financial reporting functions and clerical functions relating to the
       Fund; (ii) expenses for services required in connection with the
       preparation of registration statements and prospectuses, shareholder
       reports and notices, proxy solicitation material furnished to
       shareholders of the Fund or regulatory authorities and reports and
       questionnaires for SEC compliance; and (iii) registration, filing and
       other fees in connection with requirements of regulatory authorities. For
       the year ended December 31, 1995 these expenses amounted to $10,200 and
       are shown separately in the financial statements as Accounting and
       Administration. The entire expense was waived by CGM. See Note 4.

    C. TRUSTEES FEES AND EXPENSES -- The Fund does not pay any compensation
       directly to its officers or to any trustees who are directors, officers
       or employees of CGM, or any affiliate of CGM, other than registered
       investment companies. Each other trustee is compensated by the Fund at
       the rate of $6,000 per year plus travel expenses for each meeting
       attended. In addition, the Chairman of the Independent Trustees Committee
       receives an annual retainer of $1,000.

4. EXPENSE LIMITATION -- Until December 31, 1996, and, thereafter, until further
notice to the Fund, CGM has voluntarily agreed to reduce its management fee and,
if necessary, to assume expenses of the Fund in order to limit the Fund's
expenses to an annual rate of 0.85% of average daily net assets. As a result of
the Fund's expenses exceeding the voluntary expense limitation, CGM waived its
entire management fee of $167,688, the entire Accounting and Administration
expense of $10,200, and assumed Fund operating expenses of $28,388. The Fund
incurred operating expenses of $259,155, representing 0.85% of the average daily
net assets.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of CGM Fixed Income Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of CGM Fixed Income Fund at December
31, 1995, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the
financial highlights for the periods indicated in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and the financial
highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1995 by
correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.

CGM Mutual Fund increased 24.3% during 1995 compared to the Standard and Poor's
500 Index which returned 37.5% and the Merrill Lynch Master Bond Index which
rose 18.5% for the year. During the fourth quarter of 1995, CGM Mutual Fund
increased 1.2% while the S&P 500 rose 6.0% and the Merrill Lynch Master Bond
Index increased 4.3%.

THE YEAR IN REVIEW AND INVESTMENT OUTLOOK

1995 was a banner year both for the U.S. economy and the securities markets.
Favorable trends established the previous year prevailed throughout 1995, almost
without exception. We continued to enjoy strong job growth, increased
productivity and higher corporate profits combined with moderate inflation as
measured by the Consumer Price Index. In November, the CPI stalled at October's
level, a positive indicator cited by the Federal Reserve Board as a reason to
lower the Federal Funds rate a quarter of a percent on December 19. The economy
is slowing and the Federal Reserve Board may well be calling for short-term
interest rates to come down in order to stimulate business.

The U.S. business outlook is also influenced by trends in other industrialized
nations, many of which are already lowering interest rates in an effort to spark
sluggish economies. Such precedent permits U.S. policymakers latitude in
reducing domestic short-term rates from current relatively high levels.

While the economic slowing will raise some questions about future corporate
profits, those companies with prospects for increased earnings could find that
lower rates mean higher stock prices. Last year was a case in point when a surge
in corporate profits occurred while long-term interest rates declined producing
the sensational equity gains of 1995. Although we expect the combination of
further gains in corporate profits and slightly lower interest rates will lead
to higher securities markets, we anticipate increases will be more modest and
the overall environment, more volatile than that of 1995.

PORTFOLIO STRATEGY

The CGM Mutual Fund portfolio mix remained roughly 25% fixed income securities
and 75% common stocks or securities convertible into common stocks during 1995.

A major position in real estate investment trusts was cut back from nearly one
quarter of the Fund at the beginning of the year to less than 5% of the
portfolio at mid-year where it remains today. Commodity cyclical companies,
which constituted more than 20% of the portfolio early in 1995, were eliminated
and proceeds from those sales as well as the real estate investment trusts were
invested in banks, airlines and technology stocks. The technology stocks were
sold later in the year, but the Fund continued to hold major positions in bank
and airline stocks at year-end, attesting to a continued positive outlook for
these industries.

Fund performance was favorably affected by investments in bank, airline and
technology stocks during 1995 and negatively influenced by real estate
investment trusts and treasury bills.

The CGM Mutual Fund portfolio is approximately 25% invested in government and
corporate bonds with the remainder of holdings in companies with a promising
earnings outlook. The three largest company holdings are Chemical Banking
Corporation, Citicorp and Northwest Airlines Corporation.

                               CGM MUTUAL FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- DECEMBER 31, 1995

1.The Fund is a series of CGM Trust which is organized as a Massachusetts
business trust under the laws of Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and
Declaration of Trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust has
three other Funds whose financial statements are not presented herein. The
Fund's objective is reasonable long-term capital appreciation with a prudent
approach to protection of capital from undue risks. Current income is a
consideration in the selection of the Fund's portfolio securities, but it is not
a controlling factor.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The
financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A.  SECURITY VALUATION -- Equity securities are valued on the basis of
    valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of
    Trustees, which service provides the last reported sale price for securities
    listed on a national securities exchange or on the NASDAQ national market
    system or, if no sale was reported and in the case of over-the-counter
    securities not so listed, the last reported bid price. Corporate debt
    securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing
    service, authorized by the Board of Trustees, which determines valuations
    for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market
    information, transactions for comparable securities and various
    relationships between securities which are generally recognized by
    institutional traders. United States government debt securities are valued
    at the current closing bid, as last reported by a pricing service approved
    by the Board of Trustees. Short-term investments having a maturity of sixty
    days or less are stated at amortized cost, which approximates value.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED

B.  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions
    are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is
    executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest
    income is recorded on the accrual basis. Net gain or loss on securities sold
    is determined on the identified cost basis.

C.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
    requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
    companies, and to distribute to its shareholders all of its taxable income
    and net realized capital gains, within the prescribed time period.
    Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been made.

D.  DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends and distributions
    are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. The classification of
    income and capital gains distributions is determined in accordance with
    income tax regulations. Dividend income received by the Fund from its
    investment in REITs may be comprised, for tax purposes, of ordinary income,
    capital gains, and return of capital. These dividends, when distributed by
    the Fund, are passed through to the Fund's shareholders with these same tax
    characteristics. For 1995, return of capital and capital gain distributions
    from REITs totaled $2,067,256 and $99,891, respectively, resulting in a
    reduction of the Fund's dividend income and an increase in its realized and
    unrealized gain on investments. Permanent book and tax differences relating
    to shareholder distributions may result in reclassifications to paid-in
    capital. Undistributed net investment income, accumulated net investment
    loss, or distributions in excess of net investment income may include
    temporary book and tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent
    period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is
    distributed in the following year.

2.  PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES -- For the year ended December 31, 1995,
purchases and sales of securities other than United States government
obligations and short-term investments aggregated $2,214,583,140 and
$2,305,359,349, respectively. Purchases and sales of United States government
obligations aggregated $1,158,883,931 and $629,235,111, respectively.

3.  A.  MANAGEMENT FEES -- During the year  ended December 31, 1995, the Fund
        incurred management fees of $7,637,552, paid or payable to the Fund's
        investment adviser, Capital Growth Management Limited Partnership
        (CGM), certain officers and directors of which are also officers and
        trustees of the Fund. The management agreement between the Fund and
        CGM provides for a fee at the annual rate of 0.75% on the first $200
        million of the Fund's average daily net assets, 0.70% of the next $300
        million and 0.65% of such assets in excess of $500 million.

    B.  OTHER EXPENSES -- CGM performs certain administrative, accounting and

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of CGM Mutual Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of CGM Mutual Fund at December 31,
1995, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the
financial highlights for the periods indicated in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and the financial
highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1995 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers and the application of alternative
auditing procedures where confirmations from brokers were not received, provide
a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

CGM American Tax Free Fund increased 18.0% during the year just ended compared
to the Lehman Municipal Bond Index which rose 17.5% during 1995. For the fourth
quarter of the year, CGM American Tax Free Fund returned 5.3% compared to the
Lehman Municipal Bond Index which increased 4.1% over the same period.

THE YEAR IN REVIEW AND INVESTMENT OUTLOOK
1995 was a banner year both for the U.S. economy and the securities markets.
Favorable trends established the previous year prevailed throughout 1995, almost
without exception. We continued to enjoy strong job growth, increased
productivity and higher corporate profits combined with moderate inflation as
measured by the Consumer Price Index. In November, the CPI stalled at October's
level, a positive indicator cited by the Federal Reserve Board as a reason to
lower the Federal Funds rate a quarter of a percent on December 19. The economy
is slowing and the Federal Reserve Board may well be calling for short-term
interest rates to come down in order to stimulate business.

The U.S. business outlook is also influenced by trends in other industrialized
nations, many of which are already lowering interest rates in an effort to spark
sluggish economies. Such precedent permits U.S. policymakers latitude in
reducing domestic short-term rates from current relatively high levels.

While economic slowing will raise some questions about future corporate profits,
those companies with prospects for increased earnings could find that lower
rates mean higher stock prices. Last year was a case in point when a surge in
corporate profits occurred while long-term interest rates declined producing the
sensational equity gains of 1995. Although we expect the combination of further
gains in corporate profits and slightly lower interest rates will lead to higher
securities markets, we anticipate increases will be more modest and the overall
environment, more volatile than that of 1995.

PORTFOLIO STRATEGY
In 1995, the bond market returned the third best single-year performance on
record. A slow growth economy, low inflation, Federal Reserve Board
accommodation and deficit reduction discussions all contributed to the favorable
market. Best returns came from long Treasuries; however, average returns in the
corporate bond and convertible debt and preferred markets ranged from 22-25%.
Municipal bond performance was limited slightly by flat tax fears and, to a
lesser degree, a cut in the capital gains rate which would make stocks even more
attractive as well as a sharp decline in interest rates. Best returns in the
municipal bond market were achieved by maintaining a long maturity exposure
throughout 1995 and taking advantage of lower quality credits where spreads
continue to narrow. More value was added by correctly anticipating lower
interest rates.

CGM American Tax Free Fund outperformed the averages in 1995 on account of
higher yielding, lower quality holdings and a reasonably long portfolio
maturity. The Fund's three largest sectors are industrial/pollution control,
water/sewer and insured bonds. The three largest holdings are Hodge Louisiana
(Stone Container), Howard County, Maryland Multi-family Housing (Avalon
Properties) and Dade County, Florida Water/Sewer Revenue.

                          CGM AMERICAN TAX FREE FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- DECEMBER 31, 1995

1. The Fund is a series of CGM Trust which is organized as a Massachusetts
business trust under the laws of Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and
Declaration of Trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust has
three other funds whose financial statements are not presented herein. The Fund
commenced operations on November 10, 1993. The primary investment objective of
the Fund is to provide high current income exempt from federal income tax. The
Fund's secondary investment objective is capital appreciation.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The
financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A.  SECURITY VALUATION -- Debt securities are valued on the basis of valuations
    furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of Trustees, which
    determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such
    securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities
    and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized
    by institutional traders. Short-term investments having a maturity of sixty
    days or less are stated at amortized cost, which approximates value.

B.  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions
    are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is
    executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund
    may trade securities on other than normal settlement terms. This may
    increase the risk if the other party to the transaction fails to deliver and
    causes the Fund to subsequently invest at less advantageous prices. Interest
    income is recorded on the accrual basis. Interest income is increased by the
    accretion of discount. Premium is amortized against interest income with a
    corresponding decrease in the cost basis. Net gain or loss on securities
    sold is determined on the identified cost basis.

C.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
    requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
    companies, and to distribute to its shareholders all of its taxable and tax
    exempt income and net realized capital gains, within the prescribed time
    period. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been made. At
    December 31, 1995, the capital loss carryover available to offset future
    realized gains aggregated approximately $887,000 and expires in the year
    2002.

D.  DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends and distributions
    are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. The classification of
    income and capital gains distributions is determined in accordance with
    income tax regulations. Permanent book and tax differences relating to
    shareholder distributions may result in reclassifications to paid-in
    capital. Undistributed net investment income, accumulated net investment
    loss, or distributions in excess of net investment income may include
    temporary book and tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent
    period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is
    distributed in the following year.

E.  OTHER -- The Fund has greater than 10% of its net assets at December 31,
    1995 invested in Michigan. There are certain risks arising from geographical
    concentration in any state. Certain revenue or tax related events in a state
    may impair the ability of certain issuers of municipal securities to pay
    principal and interest on their obligations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

2. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES -- For the year ended December 31, 1995,
purchases and sales of securities other than United States government
obligations and short-term investments aggregated $13,659,267 and $13,399,267,
respectively. There were no purchases or sales of United States government
obligations.

3.  A.  MANAGEMENT FEES -- During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Fund
        incurred management fees of $66,010 payable to the Fund's investment
        adviser, Capital Growth Management Limited Partnership (CGM), certain
        officers and directors of which are also officers and trustees of the
        Fund. The management agreement provides for a fee at the annual rate
        of 0.60% on the first $500 million of the Fund's average daily net
        assets, 0.55% of the next $500 million and 0.45% of such assets in
        excess of $1 billion. CGM waived its entire fee. See Note 4.

    B.  OTHER EXPENSES -- CGM performs certain administrative, accounting and
        other services for the Fund. The expenses of those services, which are
        paid to CGM by the Fund, include the following: (i) expenses for
        personnel performing bookkeeping, accounting, internal auditing and
        financial reporting functions and clerical functions relating to the
        Fund; (ii) expenses for services required in connection with the
        preparation of registration statements and prospectuses, shareholder
        reports and notices, proxy solicitation material furnished to
        shareholders of the Fund or regulatory authorities and reports and
        questionnaires for SEC compliance; and (iii) registration, filing and
        other fees in connection with requirements of regulatory authorities.
        For the year ended December 31, 1995, these expenses amounted to $4,000
        and are shown separately in the financial statements as Accounting and
        Administration. The entire expense was waived by CGM.
        See Note 4.

    C.  TRUSTEES FEES AND EXPENSES -- The Fund does not pay any compensation
        directly to its officers or to any trustees who are directors, officers
        or employees of CGM, or any affiliate of CGM, other than registered
        investment companies. Each other trustee is compensated by the Fund at
        the rate of $3,000 per year plus travel expenses for each meeting
        attended. In addition, the chairman of the Independent Trustees
        Committee receives an annual retainer of $1,000.

4. EXPENSE LIMITATION -- Until December 31, 1996, and, thereafter, until further
notice to the Fund, CGM has voluntarily agreed to waive its management fee and
to assume all expenses of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 1995, CGM
waived its entire management fee of $66,010, the entire Accounting and
Administration expense of $4,000, and assumed Fund expenses of $214,779.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of CGM American Tax Free Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of CGM American Tax Free Fund at
December 31, 1995, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets
and the financial highlights for the periods indicated in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and the
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1995 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers and the application of alternative
auditing procedures where confirmations from brokers were not received, provide
a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are pleased to report CGM Realty Fund increased 19.8% during 1995,
comparing favorably to the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trust's Equity REIT Index which rose 15.3% during the year just past. For the
fourth quarter of 1995, CGM Realty Fund returned 5.3% compared to the NAREIT
Equity REIT Index which increased 4.1% over the same period.

THE YEAR IN REVIEW AND INVESTMENT OUTLOOK
1995 was a banner year both for the U.S. economy and the securities markets.
Favorable trends established the previous year prevailed throughout 1995,
almost without exception. We continued to enjoy strong job growth, increased
productivity and higher corporate profits combined with moderate inflation as
measured by the Consumer Price Index. In November, the CPI stalled at
October's level, a positive indicator cited by the Federal Reserve Board as a
reason to lower the Federal Funds rate a quarter of a percent on
December 19. The economy is slowing and the Federal Reserve Board may well be
calling for short-term interest rates to come down in order to stimulate
business.

The U.S. business outlook is also influenced by trends in other industrialized
nations, many of which are already lowering interest rates in an effort to
spark sluggish economies. Such precedent permits U.S. policymakers latitude in
reducing domestic short-term rates from current relatively high levels.

While economic slowing will raise some questions about future corporate
profits, those companies with prospects for increased earnings could find that
lower rates mean higher stock prices. Last year was a case in point when a
surge in corporate profits occurred while long-term interest rates declined
producing the sensational equity gains of 1995. Although we expect the
combination of further gains in corporate profits and slightly lower interest
rates will lead to higher securities markets, we anticipate increases will be
more modest. Real estate securities, however, could make a strong showing
despite a more volatile overall environment than that of 1995.

PORTFOLIO STRATEGY
CGM Realty Fund performance benefited from rising cash flows and dividends of
the portfolio companies as well as declining interest rates fostered by a low
inflation, slow growth economy.

The Fund began the year with 60% of the portfolio invested in apartment REITs.
Over the course of the year, most of these stocks were replaced with hotel,
office and storage REITs as new opportunities became available. At year end,
44% of the Fund's portfolio was invested in hotel REITs since a number of
these companies are distinguished by lower valuations and higher current
yields than companies with comparable growth prospects in other property
classes.

CGM Realty Fund is 44% invested in hotel REITs; 20% in office and industrial
REITs; 15% in apartment REITs; 15% in storage REITs; and 5% in retail REITs.
The Fund's three largest holdings are Felcor Suite Hotels, Inc., Bay Apartment
Communities, Inc. and Cali Realty Corp.

The Fund's average annual total return since inception (May 13, 1994) through
December 31, 1995 is 11.8%. The adviser has agreed to limit the Fund's total
operating expenses to 1.00% of its average net assets through December 31,
1996. Otherwise, the Fund's total return since inception and for the one year
and three-month periods ended December 31, 1995 would have been lower.

                               CGM REALTY FUND
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- DECEMBER 31, 1995

1.  The Fund is a series of CGM Trust which is organized as a Massachusetts
business trust under the laws of Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and
Declaration of Trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust
has three other funds whose financial statements are not presented herein. The
Fund commenced operations on May 13, 1994. The Fund's investment objective is
above-average income and long-term growth of capital. The Fund intends to
pursue its objective by investing primarily in equity securities of companies
in the real estate industry.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The
financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles which require management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A.  SECURITY VALUATION -- Equity securities are valued on the basis of
    valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of
    Trustees, which service provides the last reported sale price for
    securities listed on a national securities exchange or on the NASDAQ
    national market system or, if no sale was reported and in the case of
    over-the-counter securities not so listed, the last reported bid price.
    Short-term investments having a maturity of sixty days or less are stated
    at amortized cost, which approximates value.

B.  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security
    transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or
    sell is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
    Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Net gain or loss on
    securities sold is determined on the identified cost basis.

C.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
    requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
    investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders all of its
    taxable income and net realized capital gains, within the prescribed time
    period. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been made. At
    December 31, 1995, the capital loss carryovers available to offset future
    gains were $381,021 expiring in the year 2002, and approximately
    $1,155,000 expiring in 2003.

D.  DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends and distributions
    are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. The classification of
    income and capital gains distributions is determined in accordance with
    income tax regulations. Dividend income received by the Fund from its
    investment in REITs may, for tax purposes consist of ordinary income,
    capital gains and return of capital. The portion derived from capital
    gains and return of capital will result in a reduction of the Fund's
    dividend income and an increase in realized and unrealized gain on
    investments. These dividends, when distributed by the Fund, are passed
    through to the Fund's shareholders with these same tax characteristics.
    For 1995, the resulting return of capital component of the Fund's
    distributions totaled $561,236. Permanent book and tax differences
    relating to shareholder distributions may result in reclassifications to
    paid-in capital. Undistributed net investment income, accumulated net
    investment loss, or distributions in excess of net investment income may
    include temporary book and tax differences, which will reverse in a
    subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end
    is distributed in the following year.

        the annual rate of 0.85% on the first $500 million of the Fund's
        average daily net assets and 0.75% on amounts in excess of $500
        million. CGM waived a portion of its fee. See Note 4.

    B.  OTHER EXPENSES -- CGM performs certain administrative, accounting and

        paid to CGM by the Fund, include the following: (i) expenses for
        personnel performing bookkeeping, accounting, internal auditing and
        financial reporting functions and clerical functions relating to the
        Fund; (ii) expenses for services required in connection with the
        preparation of registration statements and prospectuses, shareholder

        meeting attended. In addition, the chairman of the Independent
        Trustees Committee receives an annual retainer of $1,000.

4.  EXPENSE LIMITATION -- Until December 31, 1996 and, thereafter, until
further notice to the Fund, CGM has voluntarily agreed to reduce its
management fee and, if necessary, to assume expenses of the Fund in order to
limit the Fund's expenses to an annual rate of 1.00% of average daily net
assets. As a result of the Fund's expenses exceeding the voluntary expense
limitation, CGM waived $267,832 of its management fee. The Fund incurred
operating expenses of $392,075, representing 1.00% of the average daily net
assets.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of CGM Realty Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of
operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CGM Realty Fund at
December 31, 1995, the results of its operations, the changes in its net
assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
the financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are
the responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1995 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers and the application of
alternative auditing procedures where confirmations from brokers were not
received, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
