STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Effective May 26, 2000, Fidelity Advisor Retirement Growth Fund will be renamed Fidelity Advisor Dynamic Capital Appreciation Fund. All references to Fidelity Advisor Retirement Growth Fund throughout this SAI should be replaced with Fidelity Advisor Dynamic Capital Appreciation Fund.

The following information supplements similar information found under the heading "Performance Comparisons" in the "Performance" section beginning on page 66.

Advisor Balanced may also compare its performance to that of the Fidelity Advisor Balanced Composite Index which is a hypothetical representation of the performance of the fund's general investment categories using a weighting of 60% equity and 40% bond. The following indexes are used to calculate the Fidelity Advisor Balanced Composite Index: Russell 3000 Value Index for the equity category and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index for the bond category. The index weightings of the Fidelity Advisor Balanced Composite Index are rebalanced monthly.

Russell 3000 Value Index is a market capitalization-weighted index of value-oriented stocks of U.S. domiciled companies. Value-oriented stocks tend to have lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted values.

Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted index for investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities. Issues included in the index have an outstanding par value of at least $100 million and maturities of at least one year. Government and corporate issues include all public obligations of the U.S. Treasury (excluding flower bonds and foreign-targeted issues) and U.S. Government agencies, as well as nonconvertible investment-grade, SEC-registered corporate debt. Mortgage-backed securities include 15- and 30-year fixed-rate securities backed by mortgage pools of the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), and Fannie Mae. Asset-backed securities include credit card, auto, and home equity loans.
