DEAR CONTRACT OWNERS:
Rising global liquidity has underpinned international equity markets over the
past six months, and equities so far have ignored the "growth scare" that has
affected most bond markets in 1996. Low interest rates in Europe and Japan and
a growing money supply, plus signs of economic recovery and accelerating
corporate earnings in those areas, reinforced the positive message coming from
the U.S. equity market. Investors in these markets believe that the same
trends are at work as in the United States, but that the international markets
are in an earlier phase of their cycle. For the six months ended June 30,
1996, the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Index (the S&P 500), a popular,
unmanaged index of common stock performance, returned 10.09%. All of the
equity Series available under your contract achieved positive results.
U.S. Outlook
Real (inflation-adjusted) economic growth in the first quarter of 1996 was
2.3% on an annualized basis, and it appears that second-quarter growth could
be even stronger. Thus, real growth in gross domestic product has started the
year at a rate exceeding our expectations. While we continue to believe that
growth from quarter to quarter will be uneven, it is now our expectation that
growth for all of 1996 could exceed 2.5%. Although individual consumers appear
to be carrying an excessive debt load, the consumer sector itself, which
represents two-thirds of the economy, continues to be impressive as the auto
and housing markets remain resilient. Consumer spending has also been
positively impacted by widespread job growth. At the same time, however, the
economies of Europe and Japan continue to be in the doldrums, weakening U.S.
export markets while subduing the capital spending plans of American
corporations. Finally, due to the pickup in economic activity and increasing
job growth, it appears that inflation may accelerate slightly this year, and
the Federal Reserve Board is expected to continue its diligent anti-
inflationary stance.
Global Outlook
The first half of 1996 has seen a continuation of the positive performance of
global equity markets exhibited in 1995. Positive local currency returns were
generated throughout the world. We believe that the equity markets will
continue to be fundamentally driven, although the economic outlook is
uncertain, with the strength of the U.S. economy unclear, Japan starting to
show more meaningful signs of recovery, and Europe's recovery still in its
early stages. Lower interest rates, particularly in Europe and Japan, have
helped support strong equity markets. While we believe that interest rates are
unlikely to fall further, a subdued global inflation outlook could mean that
rates rise little from current levels, which should help support current
equity market valuations. Therefore, for the remainder of 1996, we believe
corporate earnings growth will be the key to further stock market gains.
Bond Markets
In the bond markets, persistent signs of economic weakness led to decreases in
short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve in late 1995 and early 1996.
However, should signs of economic growth and, particularly, of higher
inflation continue, we would expect the Fed to maintain its anti-inflationary
stance. In the beginning of the year, bond markets were trading in a narrow
range, as investors shifted between concern about the lack of a budget
resolution in Washington and hopes that sluggish economic reports and low
inflation might lead to lower interest rates. Later, fixed-income markets
began reacting to conflicting signals regarding the strength of the economy
with more-volatile trading patterns marked by an upward bias in interest
rates. Interest rates may move even higher over the coming months, but we
believe the current rise in bond yields is reaching a point where fixed-income
markets are becoming attractively valued.
In world bond markets, non-U.S. bonds, measured in local currency terms,
continued to outperform U.S. bonds during the period. The best performance was
within the higher-yielding European markets (Italy, Spain, and Sweden).
Virtually all the yield curves within these markets steepened dramatically over
the period as most European central banks lowered official interest rates due to
continued slow growth and low inflation. Within the dollar bloc, Canada and
Australia also overperformed the United States, while New Zealand suffered
underperformance due to political concerns and a pickup in economic growth.
Looking forward, we believe the main issue is whether the recent trends of
rising interest rates in most markets and a stronger dollar will remain intact.
The case for a continuation of these trends rests primarily on accelerating
world growth, led by a buoyant U.S. economy. Indicators which we feel could lead
to a further rise in interest rates include the higher-than- expected growth
seen in the United States so far this year, the rebound of growth in Japan,
signs of a rebound in Germany, and strong growth among emerging economies.
However, in our view, any further rise in yields from current levels could be
less dramatic than that experienced so far this year.
Stock Market
While we do not expect the U.S. stock market to match the extraordinary
performance of 1995, we continue to be positive about the equity market this
year. Although we believe the equity market represents fair value at current
levels, the expected slowdown in the growth of corporate earnings and the
increases in interest rates experienced so far this year raise near-term
concerns. Further increases in interest rates, and an acceleration of
inflation coupled with an additional slowdown in corporate earnings growth,
could have a negative effect on the stock market. However, to the extent that
some earnings disappointments are taken as a sign that the economy is not
overheating, this may prove beneficial for the longer-term health of the
equity market. We continue to believe that many of the technology-driven
productivity gains that U.S. companies have made in recent years will continue
to enhance corporate America's competitiveness and profitability. Therefore,
while we have some near-term concerns, we remain quite constructive on the
long-term viability of the equity market.
A discussion of performance and the current investment strategy for each of
the series is presented here and on the following pages. We appreciate your
support and welcome any questions or comments you may have.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees,

CAPITAL APPRECIATION SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series provided a total return of
12.5%. Groups that added to performance during this period include lodging,
transportation, and some sectors of the technology industry. In lodging, hotel
franchise companies such as HFS, Inc. and Promus Hotels significantly
overperformed the market because of the strong demand and the tight supply for
hotel rooms which has led to higher hotel rates. Two areas of the Series that
created a drag on performance were medical services stocks such as health
maintenance organizations and electronic semiconductor companies.
The Series' largest segment remains technology, which we believe will continue
to benefit from strong spending by corporations focusing on increased
productivity. Other large weightings include leisure, which includes
entertainment and lodging.
CONSERVATIVE GROWTH SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series experienced a total return
of 10.45%. The Series follows a conservative growth investment policy. We
attempt to structure the portfolio with stocks which we believe possess
modestly above-average earnings growth prospects relative to the S&P 500. We
also attempt to maintain an overall conservative investment posture by
focusing on companies with moderately below-average price-to-earnings ratios
relative to the S&P 500. In addition, we concentrate on large-capitalization,
well-established, recognized corporations. This is a long-term investment
strategy unaffected by our short-term market outlook.
The Series is essentially fully invested, which is our long-term policy, as we
believe that the long-term returns of the stock market outweigh its normal
fluctuations. At present, the Series is positioned with overweightings in
financial services, where we find many strong growth companies selling at
substantial discounts to the market, and industrial goods and services,
particularly in the aerospace and defense industry. We are underweighted in
basic materials, which we feel do not have a strong enough demand to offset high
capacity growth, and in utilities, where we see little growth and increased
competition.
Despite the long duration of the current economic upturn, we look forward to
continued economic growth. The combination of low short-term interest rates
and a vigilant long-term bond market leads us to believe the economy will
unfold in a slow-growth, low-inflation pattern. This has two implications for
the equity market. First, the valuation levels of the market, while high
relative to periods of higher inflation, should be sustainable. Second, profit
growth could slow relative to last year's very healthy pace. We feel that the
most important factor in portfolio performance will be the earnings
performance of individual companies.
Looking forward, we see a market where sector or industry trends are less
important than individual company earnings. We expect this to be our primary
focus for the rest of 1996.
EMERGING GROWTH SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series provided a total return of
14.86%. The Series' performance has benefited from the strong appreciation in
the stock prices of many of its holdings in the technology and consumer
sectors. The technology sector started the year with very poor performance as
investors worried about the slowdown in this sector's earnings growth versus
1995's, which saw very strong earnings growth of 50%. However, once investors
became accustomed to the fact that 1996 earnings for the technology sector
could still be in a range of 25% to 30%, and that this growth would appear to
be strong versus corporate America as a whole, the sector rebounded strongly.
Consumer stocks, which were some of the most disappointing in terms of
earnings and stock performance in 1995, rebounded smartly in the first half of
1996. One sector which has not performed well as yet for the Series in 1996 is
health care. Perhaps because of the strength in other areas of the market,
many of our health care companies, in spite of strong earnings growth, lagged
the general market.
The performance of our consumer-oriented stocks has been particularly helpful.
HFS Inc., the nation's largest franchiser of hotels and real estate companies,
saw the price of its stock appreciate almost 50% as strong earnings gains and
acquisitions such as Coldwell Banker appeared to assure investors of its
future growth prospects.
Several of the Series' retail and restaurant stocks rebounded dramatically based
on strong consumer sentiment. Applebee's, the nation's largest franchiser of
casual restaurants, appreciated substantially as strong earnings were reported
from the first quarter. Similarly, Gymboree, perhaps the retailer
best-positioned to serve the lucrative children's clothing niche, soared almost
100% from depressed levels as first-quarter earnings were very strong.
While the Series' technology stocks had, on average, mixed results, the Series
was fortunately overweighted in software and networking stocks relative to
computer systems and semiconductors. Stocks of software and networking companies
such as Oracle and Cisco responded positively to strong earnings reports.
Meanwhile, an excess of inventories held by semiconductor manufacturers'
customers has been a drag on earnings for this sector so far this year. While we
expect this overhang to dissipate, other investors have aggressively sold their
positions and depressed the stocks.
We have been surprised that our health care stocks have not performed better.
United Healthcare, the largest managed health care company in the nation, has
been a particularly poor performer. Despite reporting strong earnings versus
last year and maintaining its position as a dominant force in the sector, the
stock is down for the year. We expect the health maintenance organization (HMO)
companies to perform better by the end of the year and have recently added to
our holdings in this area with such stocks as Healthsource, which operates HMOs
in New England, the Midwest, and the Southeast. Investing in small or emerging
growth companies involves greater risk than is customarily associated with
more-established companies.
GOVERNMENT SECURITIES SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series provided a total return of
- -2.46%. This compares to a return of -1.04% for the Lehman Brothers
Government/Mortgage Index, an unmanaged index comprised of Treasuries,
agencies, and mortgage-backed securities. The difference in performance was
due primarily to the Series' longer duration during the significant market
selloff in early 1996.
We continue to be surprised by the strength of the U.S. economy. Growth in
gross domestic product in the second quarter could be greater than 4%, led by
strong housing and auto industries. Employment growth continues at a brisk
pace and has been above expectations for the past five months. Wage pressures,
therefore, continue to grow among many industry sectors. Foreign economies,
notably those of Germany and Japan, are starting to rebound off depressed
levels.
The Series is currently positioned for stable to rising yields in the near term.
The possibility of the Federal Reserve's increasing interest rates appears much
greater today than most market participants had anticipated earlier in the year.
The Series' duration (a measure of interest-rate sensitivity) is 10% lower than
the appropriate index (Lehman Government/ Mortgage Index) and is focused on
securities which add incremental yield. Cash positions remain at less than 5%.
About 65% of the Series is held in U.S. Treasury and agency debentures; these
issues currently yield between 6.4% and 7.6%. Issues are distributed across the
entire maturity spectrum. Agency issues typically add between 0.25% and 0.38% in
incremental yield above comparable U.S. Treasury issues. The other 35% of the
Series is held in mortgage-backed pass-through certificates. Issues in the
Series are held for both their yield characteristics and risk protection. Both
30-year and 15-year issues are currently represented, with yields that average
1.25% above comparable Treasury issues. The issues have stable prepayment rates,
which should make the certificates move in a predictable fashion with their
Treasury counterparts. Should we become more constructive on the market, the
Series will decrease its allocation to mortgage securities and increase its
allocation to 5- and 10-year Treasury issues. Treasuries are guaranteed by the
U.S. government but not investments in the Series.
HIGH YIELD SERIES
During the first six months of the year, economic growth was stronger than
generally anticipated, causing interest rates to rise. While most fixed-income
markets realized losses during this period, the high-yield market posted a
modest positive total return. Strong cash inflows into high-yield mutual
funds, along with increased crossover buying from pension funds and insurance
companies, helped to support high-yield bond prices. Overall credit
fundamentals improved due to the pickup in economic growth and, as a result,
the spread between the yield on high-yield bonds and Treasury securities
narrowed to 3.45% from 4.20% at the beginning of the year.
Based on our outlook for slowing economic growth, the Series began the year
defensively positioned. Throughout the period, however, we reduced our
overweighted positions in less economically sensitive industries such as media
and supermarkets. We believe this shift toward market weightings was appropriate
given the recent strength in the economy, but we continue to avoid lower-tier
credits this late in the current economic cycle.
The Series benefited from its overweighted positions in the gaming and energy
sectors. The decline in new regions legalizing gaming has sparked consolidation
in the casino industry by well-capitalized companies. The severe winter weather
caused oil and natural gas inventories to decline significantly, which has
resulted in a prolonged rally in energy prices. We reduced our exposure to the
paging industry due to slowing subscriber growth and increased competition. We
continue to look for companies with good growth potential, such as Teleport
Communications in the telecommunication sector, as well as companies which
continue to repay debt and improve their balance sheets, like USG, the largest
domestic producer of gypsum wallboard.
MANAGED SECTORS SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series experienced a total return
of 7.77%. During the past six months, the Series' exposure to companies in the
oil services and retail industries, as well as selected technology holdings,
helped overall performance, as did investments in such companies as Promus
Hotels and Telephone & Data Systems. Some of this positive impact was offset
by corrections in a number of technology stocks, as well as our position in
United Healthcare.
Going forward, we believe the outlook for oil services and individual retail
holdings continues to look positive. The technology weighting has been reduced
somewhat but remains a large percentage of assets, with core holdings in Intel,
Oracle, and Electronic Arts. The Series has recently increased its positions in
two previously large positions, Harrah's Entertainment and Telephone & Data
Systems, as we believe they remain attractively valued. In addition, we have
begun to buy some positions in HMOs. Although this sector has woefully
underperformed over the past six months, with some companies reporting quarterly
earnings that have been below expectations, we believe the prospects for future
growth are well above those reflected in current valuations.
Overall, the breadth of the stock market has narrowed decidedly of late,
resulting in significantly higher volatility in share prices. Despite our
expectation of continued modest economic growth and a benign interest rate
environment, it appears that these favorable attributes have largely been
discounted by many industry sectors; thus, future gains in the stock market
could become more difficult to achieve. We continue to search for attractively
valued companies but recognize that maintaining a slightly more cautious outlook
may be the most prudent course of action over the near term.
MFS/FOREIGN & COLONIAL EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY SERIES
The Series, which commenced operations on June 5, 1996, seeks capital
appreciation through investing primarily in companies whose principal
activities are located in emerging market countries. The Series also has the
ability to invest up to 35% of its assets in lower-rated or unrated fixed-
income securities. We expect the Series to be well diversified at the country
level, with major industry weightings in telecommunications, banking, electric
utilities, food and beverages, and oil and gas, in such countries as Brazil,
Mexico, Malaysia, India, and South Africa. Within Asia, we are building up a
strong position in Hong Kong, which we believe will be re-rated upward as the
handover to China approaches in mid-1997. We are also positive on India
following the recent national elections due to strong earnings growth and
improving domestic liquidity.
Our largest position in Latin America is in Brazil. Interest rates have been
steadily easing and reforms are continuing, while the stock market is below its
level when Fernando Henrique Cardoso was elected president. We are also positive
on the smaller Latin American markets of Colombia and Peru. In Colombia,
political worries have overshadowed what we believe to be an improving inflation
environment and very attractive valuations. In other emerging markets, we find
Poland and Hungary attractive. The Polish economy is growing strongly, led by
exporters, and even though it has been one of the best-performing markets in the
world in 1996, shares with single-digit price-earnings multiples are still
available.
MFS/FOREIGN & COLONIAL INTERNATIONAL GROWTH SERIES
The Series, which commenced operations on June 3, 1996, seeks capital
appreciation through investing, under normal market conditions, at least 65%
of its assets in companies whose principal activities are located outside the
United States and which we believe offer above-average growth potential over
the long term. The Series seeks to capture this growth potential by investing
in a combination of asset classes encompassing foreign small-cap stocks,
foreign blue-chip stocks, and emerging market securities. Among countries
where the Series invests, we are positive on Japan where we expect Japanese
interest rates to remain low, which should provide support for equities. We
also expect to see a significant recovery in earnings. These developments,
together with continuing deregulation and restructuring, are expected to
benefit the small-capitalization asset class.
The United Kingdom market appears unlikely to make much progress for the rest
of the year as investors become increasingly concerned about the political
situation there. Small companies have strongly outperformed the large caps
since the beginning of the year, and we believe this trend will continue for
the remainder of the year, although we expect the degree of overperformance to
be somewhat lower.
We remain cautious on the outlook for continental Europe, where a low-growth,
low-inflation environment looks likely for the rest of the year. Consumer
confidence is low, with most countries experiencing high levels of unemployment,
job insecurity, and fiscal tightening as governments attempt to reform
inefficient state sectors and bring budget deficits in line with the Maastricht
criteria. In this environment, we believe that small, flexible companies in
niche businesses which are able to exploit any opportunities that do exist
should be able to outperform larger companies.
Emerging markets have shown better performance in 1996 after a generally poor
performance in 1994 and 1995. In Pakistan, for example, valuations are among the
cheapest in Asia, and we expect to see an economic recovery there in the next 12
months. In Brazil, interest rates have been easing steadily and reforms are
continuing, while the stock market is still below the level it was at when
Fernando Henrique Cardoso was elected president. We are also positive on the
smaller Latin American markets of Colombia and Peru. In Colombia, political
worries have overshadowed what we believe to be an improving inflation
environment and very attractive valuations. In Peru, an agreement has recently
been signed with the International Monetary Fund which we expect to help the
economy in the medium term. In other emerging markets, we find Poland and
Hungary attractive. The Polish economy is growing strongly, led by exporters. In
Hungary, companies have announced good results and reforms are beginning to take
effect, providing what we regard as interesting investment opportunities.
MFS/FOREIGN & COLONIAL INTERNATIONAL GROWTH AND INCOME SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series provided a total return of
4.34%. The Series seeks capital appreciation and current income by investing
primarily in a combination of "blue-chip" and growth stocks plus fixed-income
investments of companies and issuers whose principal activities are located
outside the United States. Up to 10% of assets may be invested in emerging
market securities. We currently prefer international equities to international
bonds as we believe the synchronized pickup in economic growth among the "G7"
major industrialized nations (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, United
Kingdom, and United States) provides a more favorable environment for
equities.
Japan remains one of our favored areas within the equity portfolio, a stance
based on a significant earnings recovery and the likelihood of domestic
investors returning to the equity market. We expect interest rates to remain
low, which should provide support for equities and allow financial institutions
to rebuild their balance sheets. Within the Japanese portfolio, we are
underweighted in banks and automobiles and overweighted in the electrical and
electronics exporting sector, with holdings in Canon, Ricoh, and Kyocera, among
others. We are also overweighted in the Far East, which offers excellent
long-term growth prospects and, in the shorter term, could continue to benefit
from U.S. mutual fund flows.
The Series is underweighted in the United Kingdom and in the remainder of
Europe. In our opinion, the equity market in the United Kingdom is unlikely to
make much progress as investors become increasingly concerned with the prospect
of a general election within the next 12 months. We remain overweighted in some
cyclical areas such as building materials and construction, which we believe
have been heavily oversold. We are underweighted in financials, chemicals, and
pharmaceuticals.
Equity markets in the rest of Europe have rallied on the back of falling
interest rates so far this year. Although economic growth prospects appear
favorable, we believe growth will be capped by the tight fiscal requirements of
the Maastricht criteria, leading to closer economic and monetary ties among
European economies. We are overweighted in cyclicals such as Bayer and BASF, and
in auto companies such as Volvo and Volkswagen.
The fixed-income portion of the Series reflects our ongoing concerns about
further increases in interest rates. With growth in the United States straining
the availability of capacity and labor, we believe the bond market will likely
continue to discount the possibility of higher official interest rates. Despite
lower growth and inflation risks in Europe, interest rates there will likely, in
our opinion, be pulled higher by U.S. rates. In Japan, the current interest rate
levels already reflect expectations of rate increases, which we believe may not
occur for some time, so the bond market may better resist the general rise in
rates elsewhere.
Our bond holdings have been designed to limit interest rate sensitivity and to
focus on overperformance by countries such as Canada, Spain, and Sweden, where
inflation prospects appear to be improving and official rates may be falling.
A portion of our European currency exposure is hedged back into the U.S.
dollar, reflecting stronger U.S. growth and higher interest rate levels.
MONEY MARKET SERIES
Interest rates on short-term (30 days and less) debt instruments decreased
moderately during the past six months. During the same period, the Federal
Reserve lowered short-term interest rates by 25 basis points (0.25%). At the
present time, approximately 61% of the Series is invested in U.S. government
or government guaranteed issues, with the balance in corporate issues.
Furthermore, the average maturity of the Series on June 30, 1996 was 36 days,
versus 46 days on December 31, 1995. We continue to limit the Series'
investments to securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury or agencies
or instrumentalities of the U.S. government, as well as to the highest quality
corporate issues, to help provide maximum security against credit risk.
We anticipate short-term interest rates remaining stable to slightly higher over
the next several months, and we expect to maintain relatively short maturities
in the portfolio.
RESEARCH SERIES
The Research Series reported a total return of 12.79% for the six months ended
June 30, 1996. The Series is currently overweighted in technology, leisure,
industrial goods and services, and retailing. Companies within each of these
sectors have been selected because of what we believe is their ability to
offer strong earnings potential within the current economic environment.
Within the technology sector, companies such as Microsoft, Sun Microsystems,
Compuware, and Glenayre Technologies have significantly contributed to the
Series' performance. In the leisure sector, the hotel industry continues to be
an attractive area. For example, HFS, Inc., both through recent acquisitions
and existing business growth, has demonstrated superior earnings potential and
remains one of the Series' top holdings.
The Series remains underweighted in utilities and communications mainly due to
an unfavorable economic outlook for some companies within the sector. The
utility industry, for example, is currently being impacted by increased
competition and lower growth prospects.
TOTAL RETURN SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series provided a total return of
4.77%. Over this period, the U.S. stock market continued to climb steadily, with
equities benefiting from several factors including solid corporate profits,
modest inflation, and an increasing demand for stocks as investors poured money
into mutual funds. The bond market, on the other hand, has taken a different
course. Following a very prosperous 1995, bond prices have fallen dramatically
and yields have increased. We believe the factors responsible for this decline
include a stronger-than-expected U.S. economy, significant price increases in
many major commodities, and a shift in investor sentiment regarding the Federal
Reserve's inclination to raise short-term interest rates. However, we believe
that the worst is behind us for the year. After getting more defensive with our
bond holdings in February by reducing our duration, we have recently begun to
lengthen the portfolio, and the Series' mix of stocks and bonds has been fairly
consistent over the past six months. As of June 30, 1996, stocks and
convertibles made up 56.5% of the portfolio, bonds 32.5%, and cash 11%. This
positioning is somewhat conservative because our enthusiasm for equities
continues to be tempered by high valuations. On the bond side, continued
confusion about the direction of the economy may produce more volatility. Within
the equity area, we continue to find value in certain sectors such as energy,
financials, telephone utilities, and specialty chemicals. We believe
fundamentals are solid and valuations are fair in these areas.
UTILITIES SERIES
Due to the weakness in the bond market over the past several months, utility
stocks have underperformed the broader equity markets. During the six months
ended June 30, 1996, the Utilities Series provided a total return of 5.57%.
This compares to a 0.05% return for the Standard & Poor's Utility Index (the
S&P Utility Index), an unmanaged, market-value weighted, total return index of
all utility stocks in the S&P 500.
Currently, the Series remains overweighted in domestic utility stocks relative
to the S&P Utility Index. Although competition is emerging in this industry,
the pace of change is slower than had been anticipated. Along with solid cost
control, we could see relatively strong earnings from the industry for the
next several quarters. The Series is currently emphasizing electric utilities
that are taking steps to improve their competitive position. At this juncture,
we believe the mid-tier quality group offers much higher risk-adjusted returns
than the high-quality segment. Portland General and Cinergy, two of the
Series' largest holdings, fit these criteria.
The Series is underweighted in the regional Bell operating companies because
we believe most of the good news in terms of legislation and growth prospects
is reflected in the prices of the stocks, which have been strong performers so
far this year. Although stocks of the long-distance telephone companies have
been solid performers, the Series remains overweighted in these stocks because
we are seeing accelerating growth in long-distance volume and more reasonable
valuations. Two of the Series' largest holdings, AT&T and MCI Communications,
are in the long-distance telephone sector.
The Series is overweighted in gas utility stocks, focusing on pipeline companies
with expansion opportunities and/or those which are improving the performance of
their non-regulated subsidiaries. Panenergy Corp. and Coastal Corp. are two such
companies.
Currently, approximately 20% of the Series' total net assets are invested in
international utilities. We believe these investments may offer growth
opportunities and more favorable regulatory treatment than domestic utilities.
PowerGen, for example, the Series' largest international holding, offers solid
earnings and dividend growth.
Finally, Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) currently comprise about 9% of
the Series' total net assets. We believe these investments offer above-average
dividend growth with superior yield potential. In keeping with our strategy of
remaining well diversified, we have invested in storage, health care,
industrial-office, and hotel REITs.
VALUE SERIES
The Value Series commenced operations on June 3, 1996. The Series' investment
objective is to seek capital appreciation. Dividend income, if any, is
incidental to the investment objective. The Series' investment policy is to
invest primarily in common stocks, but when relative values make it appear
attractive, the Series may seek appreciation in other types of securities such
as fixed-income securities (which may be unrated), convertible bonds,
convertible preferred stocks, and warrants. The Series may also hold cash,
commercial paper, or other forms of debt securities. Our current outlook is
somewhat cautious. Given the current level of interest rates, as well as the
strong recent stock market performance, we believe it is increasingly
difficult to find good values in today's stock market. However, we do regard
the current business environment as very positive and expect good values to
return to the market later this year once interest rates resume their decline.
WORLD ASSET ALLOCATION SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series provided a total return of
10.06%. This compares to the six-month returns for the following unmanaged
indices: 10.09% for the S&P 500; 4.67% for the Morgan Stanley Capital
International (MSCI) EAFE Index, an unmanaged index of international stocks;
- -1.21% for the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged index of
government and corporate bonds including Treasury, agency, and corporate bond
issues and mortgage-backed securities; and -1.00% for the J.P. Morgan Non-
Dollar Index (an unmanaged index of international bonds). The Series has seen
significant changes in recent months, including a 10% shift away from U.S.
stocks and the liquidation of the sub-investment-grade bond position. The main
structure of the portfolio continues to reflect our conviction that
international stocks currently provide superior value relative to U.S. stocks,
while foreign bonds, particularly in strong European governments, appear to
provide better returns going forward than U.S. bonds.
Of particular interest to us are the relative growth rates expected from
countries around the world, and the price/earnings ratios of the equity
markets in those countries as they compare to similar investment opportunities
in the United States. At present, we believe country growth rates in Asia and
parts of Europe are likely to exceed those in the United States. Comparing
such value measures as price to current cash flow and price to projected
earnings, international stocks seem to us to offer better value. These and
other considerations, such as relative interest rates, are important factors
in our models, which look to favor the cheapest markets and which are designed
to diminish the overall risk of a portfolio of bonds and stocks.
Our holdings in U.S. equities range across a variety of industries and
incorporate both value and growth strategies. Recent additions to the
portfolio include Wisconsin Central Transportation, a railroad operator; Alco
Standard, a distributor of office and paper products; and St. Jude Medical, a
medical products company. Currently, our top three sectors are leisure, with
17.3% of the portfolio, industrial goods and services (12.1%), and financial
services (10.9%).
In international stocks, we have placed priority on companies we believe will
generate above-average earnings growth and which are trading at attractive
valuations, regardless of their home country. Currently, our international
stock holdings are 50% in Europe, 47% in Asia/Pacific, and 3% in the Americas.
The largest individual country exposures are Japan, the United Kingdom, and
Sweden. Roughly 20% of our international holdings are in emerging markets,
particularly those in Southeast Asia, while weightings in Asia/Pacific and the
Americas have increased slightly, with a corresponding decline in the European
weighting. We continue to find better opportunities in companies that can be
characterized as "steady growers," as opposed to cyclicals.
In the U.S. government bond sector, we believe that increasing signs of
stronger economic growth suggest that interest rates could continue moving
higher despite the significant rise in interest rates on U.S. Treasury
securities so far in 1996. While capital spending has been strong throughout
this cycle as companies have continued to spend to upgrade technology and
manufacturing facilities, the consumer sector has shown signs of a pickup in
activity in the past couple of months. An amalgamation of sectors, including
autos, housing, and retailing, has shown a broad pickup in activity. High
levels of consumer confidence and an improving employment outlook suggest
these trends may continue through the next three to six months.
Foreign bonds, especially in European markets, outperformed U.S. bonds by a
wide margin over the past three months, while the dollar appreciated against
most major currencies. Official interest rate cuts induced by slow growth and
benign inflation allowed yields to decline in most of continental Europe. As
we anticipated, the highest-yielding markets - those of Italy, Spain, and
Sweden - provided the best performance. Within the dollar bloc, signs of
stronger growth caused yields to rise, but Canadian and Australian rates
tightened substantially versus those of the United States.
We believe the higher-yielding European markets still offer the best
opportunities for capital appreciation since continental central banks are
expected to continue the process of cutting official interest rates. In this
environment, the dollar should remain firm versus European currencies. An
acceleration of European growth could, however, undermine the performance of
both the dollar and the higher-yielding markets. In our opinion, Canada and
Australia remain attractive by virtue of their high, real (inflation-adjusted)
yields, while Japanese government bonds offer attractive currency-hedged
yields and substantial diversification benefits.
Finally, while high-yield corporate bonds have offered value to the Series for
many months, our allocation to this sector was removed because we felt better
risk-adjusted returns were available in other markets.
WORLD GOVERNMENTS SERIES
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series experienced a total
return of -0.55%. This compares to a -1.16% return for the J.P. Morgan Global
Government Bond Index (an unmanaged index of bonds issued from 13 countries
with remaining maturities of at least one year). Foreign bonds, measured in
local currency terms, continued to outperform U.S. bonds during the first six
months of 1996. The best performance was within the higher-yielding European
markets (Italy, Spain, and Sweden). Virtually all the yield curves within
these markets steepened dramatically over the period as most European central
banks lowered official interest rates due to continued slow growth and low
inflation. Within the dollar bloc, Canada and Australia also outperformed the
United States, while New Zealand suffered underperformance due to political
concerns and a pickup in economic growth.
The Series' performance has been enhanced by maintaining overweighted
positions in European bonds, particularly in Spain, Italy, and Sweden. At the
expense of being underweighted in U.S. bonds, the Series has also benefited by
maintaining and even adding to overweighted Canadian and Australian bond
positions. During the beginning of the year, the Series' overall duration was
close to five years, which hindered performance as bond yields, primarily in
the dollar-bloc countries, sold off rather dramatically due to a pickup in the
U.S. economy. During the second quarter, the Series' duration was gradually
reduced to 3.8 years.
Looking forward, we anticipate that selective European markets may continue to
offer the best opportunities for capital appreciation. Efforts to meet the
fiscal austerity of the Maastricht criteria are reinforcing the tendency
toward slower growth, and most continental central banks appear likely to
continue the process of cutting official interest rates. Consequently, the
shorter end of the higher-yielding markets could continue to outperform.
WORLD GROWTH SERIES
For the six months end June 30, 1996, the Series provided a total return of
12.15%, as compared to returns of 10.09% for the S&P 500 and 7.33% for the
MSCI World Index. The first half of 1996 saw a continuation of the positive
performance of global equity markets exhibited in 1995. Positive local
currency returns were generated throughout the world. The MSCI Europe Index
was up 10.4%, with returns ranging from 2.6% in the United Kingdom to 20.9% in
Spain; the MSCI Pacific Index was up 7.5%, with returns ranging from -2.2% in
New Zealand to 14.3% in Malaysia. The only major negative was the strong U.S.
dollar, which gained 6% against the Japanese yen and the German mark and ate
into the Series' dollar-based returns.
Our company-oriented investment philosophy is unchanged. We continue to look
for high-quality companies with the potential for superior earnings growth
trading at attractive valuations. Our search for these companies is worldwide,
and when we find the right ones, we are willing to invest in them, regardless
of their industry or home country. The Series currently has holdings in 24
countries, with exposure to any one country simply the byproduct of how many
attractive opportunities we find there and not its size. The Series' current
geographic equity exposure is approximately as follows: Europe, 34%; the
Americas, 33%; and Asia/Pacific, 33%.
Illustrating the importance of individual stock selection, the Series
benefited from the strong performance of a number of its largest holdings,
including Federated Department Stores, Telecom Italia Mobile, BMC Software,
Essilor International (which was sold during the period due to its valuation),
and Gentronics (where the position has been reduced). In addition, a number of
smaller Asian holdings contributed to performance, including New Straits
Times, Pilipino Telephone, and Wing Hang Bank. The biggest drags on
performance included United Healthcare, which declined 23%; PowerGen, which
declined 12% but became the Series' largest holding as individual shares were
purchased; and Kimberly Clark, which fell 7%, but became one of the Series'
top 10 holdings as its position was also increased.
We believe that the equity markets will continue to be fundamentally driven, a
situation which is suited to our investment style. The economic outlook is
uncertain, with the strength of the U.S. economy unclear, Japan starting to
show more meaningful signs of recovery, and Europe's recovery still in its
early stages. Lower interest rates, particularly in Europe and Japan, have
helped support strong equity markets. While we believe that interest rates are
unlikely to fall further, a subdued global inflation outlook could mean that
rates rise little from current levels, which should help support current
equity market valuations. Therefore, for the remainder of 1996, we believe
corporate earnings growth will be the key to further stock market gains.
WORLD TOTAL RETURN SERIES
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Series provided a total return of
5.37%. Foreign stock holdings in 24 countries account for approximately 64% of
the total equity position, a figure that we expect to increase since we do not
believe the performance of the U.S. equity market in 1996 is likely to repeat
the outperformance of 1995. In particular, holdings in the Far East, including
Japanese stocks, have been increased, a trend we think is likely to persist.
For some time now, our stock investments have been concentrated in companies
that are not dependent upon the business cycle to outperform. Approximately
61% of the Series' equity holdings are in utilities and communications,
financial services, special situation retailers, consumer staples, and health
care, all of which we believe could perform well in a slow-growth environment.
However, we are monitoring the situation closely since some of the economic
news has been stronger than expected.
The most important factor for the international fixed-income markets over the
past six months has been the better-than-expected strength of the U.S.
economy. Market expectations for further interest rate reductions by the
Federal Reserve have shifted to concerns of possible interest rate increases
later this year if growth remains in an above-trend pattern. Long-term
interest rates have also risen, reflecting increased concerns about inflation
and disappointment with the failed attempt to reach an accord on the federal
budget. The rise in U.S. rates has helped push up rates worldwide, although
foreign rates have generally risen less than in the United States. The
outperformance has been most pronounced in some of the higher-yielding
European bond markets.
During this challenging period, the Series' overweighting in European markets
generally and, in particular, the higher-yielding markets, has contributed to
performance against the benchmark. In addition, the Series' average maturity
was shortened in the first quarter to reduce sensitivity to changes in
interest rates.
Overall, the combination of rising interest rates and a stronger dollar has
translated into negative performance for international bonds. Looking forward,
we believe dollar strength may continue until growth in Europe, and especially
in Germany, rebounds, which we expect to occur in the second half of this
year. The outlook for world growth is continuing to improve and, thus, some
caution regarding bond markets is probably warranted. Given this outlook, we
expect the bond portfolio to emphasize shorter-maturity and higher-yielding
issues.
ZERO COUPON SERIES 2000 PORTFOLIO
The total return for the 2000 Portfolio was -2.22% for the six months ended
June 30, 1996, as intermediate-term Treasury notes moved higher during the
period, with yields on five-year Treasuries rising from 5.50% to 6.46%. The
portfolio consists of discounted coupon or principal payments, which are
stripped from U.S. Treasury securities in order to provide a predictable and
compounded rate of return. With no interest payments prior to maturity, these
portfolios are more sensitive to interest rate changes than are comparable
bond funds with similar maturities. While there will be fluctuations within
the portfolio subject to interest rate moves, all portfolio holdings are
guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury at maturity. (While the guarantees do not
apply to the individual units of the Series, they assure a specified return to
contract owners who hold their units to the maturity of the Series.)

MFS/SUN LIFE SERIES TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION
The Trust is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, management
investment company consisting of nineteen separate Series (the Series) of
shares: Capital Appreciation Series, Conservative Growth Series, Emerging Growth
Series, Government Securities Series, High Yield Series, Managed Sectors Series,
MFS/Foreign & Colonial International Growth Series, MFS/Foreign & Colonial
International Growth and Income Series, MFS/Foreign & Colonial Emerging Markets
Equity Series, Money Market Series, Research Series, Total Return Series,
Utilities Series, Value Series, World Asset Allocation Series, World Governments
Series, World Growth Series, World Total Return Series and Zero Coupon Series
2000 Portfolio. The High Yield Series, Managed Sectors Series, Utilities Series,
World Asset Allocation Series, World Governments Series, World Growth Series and
World Total Return Series are non-diversified as that term is defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The shares of each Series are sold
only to variable accounts established by Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada
(U.S.) and Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York to fund benefits
under variable contracts issued by such companies.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
GENERAL -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires 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.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES VALUATIONS -- Equity securities listed on securities
exchanges or reported through the NASDAQ system are valued at last sale prices.
Unlisted equity securities or listed equity securities for which last sale
prices are not available are valued at last quoted bid prices. Debt securities
(other than short-term obligations which mature in 60 days or less), including
listed issues and forward contracts, are valued on the basis of valuations
furnished by dealers or by a pricing service with consideration given to factors
such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield,
quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other
market data, without exclusive reliance upon exchange or over-the-counter
prices. Short-term obligations, which mature in 60 days or less, are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates value. Non- U.S. dollar denominated
short-term obligations are valued at amortized cost as calculated in the base
currency and translated into U.S. dollars at the closing daily exchange rate.
Futures contracts, options and options on futures contracts listed on
commodities exchanges are valued at closing settlement prices. Over-the-counter
options are valued by brokers through the use of a pricing model which takes
into account closing bond valuations, implied volatility and short-term
repurchase rates. Securities for which there are no such quotations or
valuations are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or at the
direction of the Trustees.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Certain Series of the Trust may enter into repurchase
agreements with institutions that the Trust's investment adviser has determined
as creditworthy. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at cost. Such Series
require that the securities purchased in a repurchase transaction be transferred
to the custodian in a manner sufficient to enable the Trust to obtain those
securities in the event of a default under the repurchase agreement. The
investment adviser monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the securities
transferred to ensure that the value, including accrued interest, of the
securities under each repurchase agreement is greater than the amount owed to
the Series under each such repurchase agreement. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order
issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, certain series of the Trust,
along with other affiliated entities of Massachusetts Financial Services Company
(MFS), may utilize a joint trading account for the purposes of entering into one
or more repurchase agreements. These repurchase agreements are collateralized by
U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION -- Investment valuations, other assets, and
liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted each
business day into U.S. dollars based upon the current exchange rates. Purchases
and sales of foreign investments, income and expenses are converted into U.S.
dollars based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of
such transactions. Gains and losses attributable to foreign currency exchange
rates on sales of securities are recorded for financial statement purposes as
net realized gains and losses on investments. Gains and losses attributable to
foreign exchange rate movements on income and expenses are recorded for
financial statement purposes as foreign currency transaction gains and losses.
That portion of both realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments
that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not
separately disclosed.
WRITTEN OPTIONS -- Certain Series of the Trust may write covered call or put
options for which premiums are received and are recorded as liabilities, and are
subsequently adjusted to the current value of the options written. Premiums
received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains.
Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are closed are
offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the
realized gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium reduces the
cost basis of the security or currency purchased. The Series, as writer of an
option, may have no control over whether the underlying security or currency may
be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an
unfavorable change in the price of the security or exchange rate underlying the
written option. In general, written call options may serve as a partial hedge
against decreases in value of the underlying security or exchange rate to the
extent of the premium received. Written options may also be used as a part of an
income-producing strategy reflecting the view of the Series' management on the
direction of interest and exchange rates.
FUTURES CONTRACTS -- Certain Series of the Trust may enter into futures
contracts for the delayed delivery of securities, currency or contracts based on
financial indices at a fixed price on a future date. In entering such contracts,
the Series are required to deposit either in cash or securities an amount equal
to a certain percentage of the contract amount. Subsequent payments are made or
received by the Series each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the
value of the underlying security, and are recorded for financial statement
purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Series. The Series' investment in
futures contracts is designed to hedge against anticipated future changes in
interest or exchange rates or securities prices. Investments in interest rate
futures for purposes other than hedging may be made to modify the duration of
the portfolio without incurring the additional transaction costs involved in
buying and selling the underlying securities. Investments in currency futures
for purposes other than hedging may be made to change the Series' relative
position in one or more currencies without buying and selling portfolio assets.
Investments in equity index contracts, or contracts on related options, for
purposes other than hedging may be made when the Series has cash on hand and
wishes to participate in anticipated market appreciation while the cash is being
invested. Should interest or exchange rates or securities prices move
unexpectedly, the Series may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures
contracts and may realize a loss.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS -- Certain Series of the Trust may
enter into forward currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a
specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. Risks may arise
upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to
meet the terms of the contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of
a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The Series will enter into
forward contracts for hedging purposes as well as for non-hedging purposes. For
hedging purposes, the Series may enter into contracts to deliver or receive
foreign currency it will receive from or require for its normal investment
activities. It may also use contracts in a manner intended to protect foreign
currency-denominated securities from declines in value due to unfavorable
exchange rate movements. For non-hedging purposes, the Series may enter into
contracts with the intent of changing the relative exposure of the Series'
portfolio of securities to different currencies to take advantage of anticipated
changes. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the
daily forward exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses
are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the contract
settlement date.
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME -- Investment transactions are recorded on
the trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. All premium
and original issue discount are amortized or accreted for both financial
statement and tax reporting purposes as required by federal income tax
regulations. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends
received in cash. Dividend and interest payments received in additional
securities are recorded on the ex-dividend or ex-interest date in an amount
equal to the value of the security on such date.
The High Yield Series can invest up to 100% of its portfolio in high-yield
securities rated below investment grade. Investments in high-yield securities
involve greater degrees of credit and market risk than investments in higher-
rated securities, and tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions.
As appropriate based on its investments, certain Series of the Trust use the
effective interest method for reporting interest income on payment-in-kind (PIK)
bonds, whereby interest income on PIK bonds is recorded ratably by the Series at
a constant yield to maturity. Legal fees and other related expenses incurred to
preserve and protect the value of a security owned are added to the cost of the
security; other legal fees are expensed. Capital infusions, which are generally
non-recurring, incurred to protect or enhance the value of high-yield debt
securities are reported as an addition to the cost basis of the security. Costs
incurred to negotiate the terms or conditions of capital infusions or that are
expected to result in a plan of reorganization are considered workout expenses
and are reported as realized losses. Ongoing costs incurred to protect or
enhance an investment, or costs incurred to pursue other claims or legal actions
are reported as operating expenses.
FEES PAID INDIRECTLY -- The Series' custodian bank calculates its fee based on
the Series' average daily net assets. The fee is reduced according to a fee
arrangement, which provides for custody fees to be reduced based on a formula
developed to measure the value of cash deposited with the custodian by the
Series. This amount is shown as a reduction on the Statements of Operations.
TAX MATTERS AND DISTRIBUTIONS -- Each Series or portfolio of the Trust intends
to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) applicable
to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders all of its
net taxable income, including any net realized gain from investments.
Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. Foreign
taxes have been provided for on interest and dividend income earned on foreign
investments in accordance with the applicable country's tax rates and to the
extent unrecoverable are recorded as a reduction of investment income.
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The Trust distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial
reporting basis and requires that only distributions in excess of tax basis
earnings and profits are reported in the financial statements as a return of
capital. Differences in the recognition or classification of income between the
financial statements and tax earnings and profits which result in temporary
over-distributions for financial statement purposes, are classified as
distributions in excess of net investment income or accumulated net realized
gains.
At December 31, 1995, the following Series had capital loss carryforwards for
federal income tax purposes which may be applied against any net taxable
realized gains of each succeeding year until the earlier of their utilization or
expiration.

6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Certain Series of the Trust may trade financial instruments with off-balance
sheet risk in the normal course of their investing activities and to assist in
managing exposure to market risks such as interest rates and foreign currency
exchange rates. These financial instruments include written options, forward
foreign currency exchange, and futures contracts. The notional or contractual
amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Series have in
particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the
amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated
with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting
transactions are considered. A summary of obligations under these financial
instruments at June 30, 1996, is shown on the following pages.

Each Series of the Trust is restricted from investing more than a certain amount
in securities which are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale.
Such restrictions range from between 0% and 15% of the Series' net assets. At
June 30, 1996, Emerging Growth Series, High Yield Series, Research Series, Total
Return Series, World Growth Series and World Total Return Series owned the
following restricted securities (consisting of 0.01%, 0.39%, 0.48%, 0.03%, 1.13%
and 0.37% of the net assets of each Series, respectively) which may not be
publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the 1933
Act). The Trust does not have the right to demand that such securities be
registered. The value of these securities is determined by valuations supplied
by a pricing service or brokers or, if not available, in good faith by or at the
direction of the Trustees.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Trustees and Shareholders of MFS/Sun Life Series Trust:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, of MFS/Sun Life Series Trust as of June 30, 1996,
the related statements of operations for the period then ended, the statements
of changes in net assets for the period then ended and the year ended December
31, 1995, and the financial highlights for the period ended June 30, 1996 and
each of the years in the five-year period ended December 31, 1995. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Trust'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 the securities owned at June
30, 1996 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were
not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Trust at June
30, 1996, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets, and
its financial highlights for the respective stated periods in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
