PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
The first half of 1994 was an unsettling time for many investors. After
three years of a nearly perfect environment for stock market investing,
stock prices generally fell from February through June. Investors disagree
about whether this decline represents only a short-term correction or
signals the beginning of a longer bear market. One can collect statistics
to support either opinion, but of course, nobody knows for sure what will
happen to stock prices in the months ahead.
We do know, however, that market declines are a normal part of stock market
investing. We have historically seen corrections of 10% or more every two
years. That's why I thought this might be a good time to review three basic
investment principles that have proven helpful to successful stock market
investors in every market cycle.
First, take a long-term approach when investing in stocks and stock funds.
If you can afford to leave your money invested through the market's
inevitable ups and downs, you will greatly reduce your vulnerability to any
single decline. Over time, stock prices have gone up - and have
significantly outperformed other types of investments and stayed ahead of
inflation. But in the short-term, because of their volatility, stocks have
greater risk.
Second, you can further manage risk by diversifying your investments. A
stock mutual fund is already diversified, because it invests in many
different companies. You can increase your diversification by investing in
a number of different stock funds, or in different investment categories,
such as bonds. You should also keep money you'll need in the near future in
a more stable investment.
Finally, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing
a set amount of money at the same time each month or quarter. That way, you
can avoid getting caught up in the excitement of a rapidly-rising market -
and won't end up buying all your shares at market highs. This strategy
won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, but
it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. For this to be
effective, you must continue to buy shares in both up and down markets.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We would be happy
to send you a Fidelity FundMatch kit, which can help you determine the mix
of investments that is right for you. You might also find it convenient to
set up a regular investment plan using the Fidelity Automatic Account
Builder.SM
We look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each
performance figure includes changes in a fund's share price, plus
reinvestment of any dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits
the fund earns when it sells stocks that have grown in value).
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1994 PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
YEAR YEARS FUND
Growth & Income 7.08% 80.90% 303.53%

S&P 500(registered trademark) 5.16% 54.91% 189.08%
Average Growth & Income Fund 4.95% 52.11% 155.03%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, one year, five years, or since the fund
started on December 30, 1985. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a
fund that had a 5% return over the past year, you would have $1,050. For
comparison, you can look at the performance of the Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 Stocks - a common proxy for the U.S. stock market.
You can also look at the average growth & income fund, which reflects the
performance of over 370 growth & income funds tracked by Lipper Analytical
Services Inc. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital
gains, if any, and exclude the effects of sales charges.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity
Growth & Income Portfolio on December 30, 1985, when the fund started, and
paid a 3% sales charge. As the chart shows, by July 31, 1994, the value of
your investment would have grown to $39,143 - a 291.43% increase on your
initial investment. For comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the
same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 investment in the
S&P 500 would have grown to $28,908 - a 189.08% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and
return of a fund that invests in
stocks or bonds will vary.
That means if you sell your
shares during a market
downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out
the market's ups and downs,
you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
After generally falling through
much of 1994, U.S. stock prices
rebounded in July on the strength
of improving corporate earnings.
Rising interest rates caused the
stock market to stumble from
February through June. Stocks
largely took their cue from bonds,
which fell sharply due to
concerns that the strengthening
economy might trigger higher
inflation. Late in the period, a
weakening U.S. dollar put
additional downward pressure on
stocks. The Standard & Poor's
500 index had a total return of
5.16% for the 12 months ended
July 31, 1994, mainly due to
gains made in 1993. Cyclical
stocks - those whose prices
tend to move in tandem with the
economy - were among the
market leaders. These included
such sectors as chemicals,
metals and paper. Market
laggards included most
consumer nondurables -
especially retail, beverage and
drug companies. In addition,
rising interest rates hurt such
rate-sensitive sectors as
insurance and utilities. Aside from
Japanese stocks, which made
strong gains due to a
strengthening economy and yen,
most foreign markets suffered
corrections in 1994. However,
strong gains in 1993 helped drive
the Morgan Stanley EAFE
(Europe, Australia, Far East)
index to a 14.13% total return for
the 12 months ended July 31.
The Morgan Stanley Emerging
Markets Free Index was up
40.62%, again due to strong
performance in 1993.
An interview with Steve Kaye,
Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Growth & Income Portfolio
Q. STEVE, HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED THIS YEAR?
A. The fund had a total return of 7.08% for the 12 months ended July 31,
1994, compared to 4.95% for the average growth and income fund tracked by
Lipper Analytical Services and 5.16% for the Standard & Poor's 500 index
during the same period.
Q. WHY DID THE FUND PERFORM BETTER THAN THE AVERAGE FUND?
A. The fund benefited from full participation in the strong market of the
last half of 1993. In the first half of 1994, the fund was helped by its
investments in real estate investment trusts (REITs), chemical companies
and Japanese stocks. I also held more cash during the past several months,
because I was more careful with my stock picking in a negative market
environment. The cash earned a better return than the market in the first
half of 1994.
Q. ARE REITS NEW FOR THE FUND?
A. No, but since I took over as manager last year, I started buying REITs
in the last quarter of 1993, and the fund had a 3.2% stake in them by July
31. I believed that the strengthening economy would lead to inflation,
causing real estate values to rise. The fund owns a lot of apartment REITs,
investments that have benefited from tighter supply and higher demand.
Modest rent increases and increasing occupancies have helped these REITs
improve their cash flows. The fund also owns regional shopping mall REITs -
such as Simon Properties and Urban Shopping Centers - because they are
producing attractive yields, around 8%, and growing cash flows.
Q. WHY DID CHEMICALS HELP?
A. The economic cycle is at a point where demand for chemicals is
increasing, boosting prices and chemical company stocks. Du Pont and Union
Carbide have been the two largest chemical investments in the fund over the
past six months, and both have performed very well. Akzo NV, a Dutch
chemical company and the world's largest salt manufacturer, also did well;
it exceeded earnings expectations because it cut costs and improved
volumes.
Q. WERE YOUR JAPANESE INVESTMENTS HELPED BY THE DROP IN THE DOLLAR?
A. The performance of the fund's Japanese stocks - including the auto
makers Suzuki, Toyota, Honda and Nissan, as well as general exporters such
as Matsushita Electric - helped the fund. These companies have effectively
cut costs, and the Japanese economy appears poised for recovery. On the
other hand, the benefit of currency impact due to the weakened dollar was
offset by my use of forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the fund's
Japanese stocks against currency risk. These instruments - a type of
derivative investment - essentially tie the value of the underlying
investment - the stocks - to the U.S. dollar. I use them because I want to
bet on the stock market, not on what's going on with the yen.
Q. DID THE FUND OWN ANY OTHER DERIVATIVE INVESTMENTS?
A. The fund owned a small stake in inverse floaters - instruments that are
structured to benefit from falling interest rates - which worked out in
1993, but performed poorly when rates began rising this year. There was
virtually no exposure to these instruments by the end of the first quarter,
but the fund did lose some money on them. By July 31, the small stake in
foreign currency contracts was the fund's only investment in derivatives.
Q. AREN'T THESE INVESTMENTS RISKY?
A. Derivative investments can be risky, depending on how they're
structured. The fund's stake in inverse floaters was extremely sensitive to
changes in interest rates, which is one reason I sold them when it appeared
rates would continue to rise. It's important to note that these investments
have not been a big part of the fund in the past.
Q. WHY DID YOU BUY A LOT OF HEALTH CARE STOCKS THIS YEAR, WHEN THOSE
COMPANIES ARE FACING THE POSSIBILITY OF MAJOR CHANGES AS A RESULT OF
HEALTHCARE REFORM?
A. The fund had an 8.1% stake in health care stocks at the end of July, up
from 6.5% six months ago. These stocks have had a few bad years, but
they've come down in price so much they're now attractively valued. It's a
classic case of the market being too pessimistic. The fund purchased a
broad range of health care stocks, such as Medtronic, American Cyanamid and
Columbia HCA. Another investment has been Becton Dickinson, a maker of
needles and syringes, which was an attractively valued stock whose price
has risen.
Q. RETAIL SALES HAVE BEEN SLUGGISH. WHY HAS THE FUND BEEN ADDING TO THIS
SECTOR?
A. Valuations - stock prices compared to measures such as earnings - for a
number of retailers have become very attractive. The fund has bought
significant positions in Sears and Toys "R" Us. Additionally, the fund has
done very well with drug stores. Two examples are Revco and Rite-Aid, which
are benefiting from prescription contracts with managed care organizations
that increase the traffic into their stores and help the sales of all the
other products these chains sell.
Q. WHAT ABOUT DISAPPOINTMENTS?
A. The biggest disappointment has been General Electric. The stock has
dropped due to the well-publicized problems at a brokerage firm that GE
owns. This problem was just a speck on the elephant, but it was very
visible, so it hurt the stock. I'm sticking with the company, however,
because it continues to have attractive business prospects with the
potential for earnings growth. In addition, the fund held bond investments
during the period, mostly foreign, that were affected by the fall in bond
markets worldwide. As of July 31, the fund has reduced its bond holdings to
5.6%, down from 9.2% on January 31, 1994. Historically, the fund hasn't
held a large stake
in bonds.
Q. HAVE YOU ADDED ANY NEW NAMES TO THE FUND?
A. I've added Browning-Ferris and WMX Technologies, waste disposal
companies that have been out of favor with investors for a number of years.
This business usually picks up late in the economic cycle, where I think we
are right now.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. I plan on moving the fund toward a more fully invested position. There
have been some stock market sectors that have undergone severe corrections,
such as technology and gaming. I'm looking to add investments from these
groups, because there are some good values. I have purchased over one
million shares of Caesars World, a major casino operator. The fund's
biggest technology investments are in Intel and IBM. Intel is the dominant
microchip maker for personal computers and has launched a new product
called Pentium. The company has a rock-solid balance sheet and is buying
back stock. IBM is a much different situation, a turnaround story. New
management has cut costs and the company's second quarter earnings were a
significant surprise. Given the company's theme of cost reduction, it looks
attractive over the next year.

STEVE KAYE ON HISTORICAL
ANALYSIS:
"I look at long-term historical
charts to help me pick stocks.
Stock prices always follow
earnings, so I try to identify
those companies with
earnings growth that appears
out of line with the stock price.
Sometimes stock prices go
below their historic earnings
trend lines, but there is
usually a good reason. Drug
stocks fell over the past few
years, for example, because
people thought health reform
was going to restrict drug
companies' pricing flexibility.
"I pay attention to historical
valuations - prices
compared to measures such
as earnings and cash flow -
assuming that there are no
underlying problems in a
company. When stocks are at
very high historical valuations,
the risk/reward trade-off
usually isn't very compelling.
When the market is going
well, stocks with high
valuations often continue to
rise, so an overvalued stock
may work for a while. But in
today's more uncertain
market, it will be important to
look for stocks with fair
valuations and a sound
history of earnings growth."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended July 31, 1994
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Fidelity Growth & Income Portfolio (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Securities Fund (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number
of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The following
summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the
closing bid price. Securities for which exchange quotations are not readily
available (and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an
exchange), are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at
their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied
procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities maturing within sixty days are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and
sales of securities, income receipts, and expense payments are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates
of the transactions.
Effective August 1, 1993, the fund adopted Statement of Position (SOP)
93-4: Foreign Currency Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation for
Investment Companies. In accordance with this SOP, reported net realized
gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and
losses from sales and maturities of forward currency contracts, disposition
of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses realized between the trade
and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between
the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S. dollar amount
actually received. Further, as permitted under the SOP, the effects of
changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes
in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net
realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment in securities.
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date
may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the
ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment income
is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is
uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
foreign currency transactions, market discount, non-taxable dividends, and
losses deferred due to wash sales, futures, and options. The fund also
utilized earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of
shares as a part of the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income may include temporary book and tax
basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable
gain or income remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following
year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING FOR DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Effective August 1,
1993, the fund adopted Statement of Position 93-2: Determi- nation,
Disclosure, and Financial Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain,
and Return of Capital Distributions by Investment Companies. As a result,
the fund changed the classification of distributions to shareholders to
better disclose the differences between financial statement amounts and
distributions determined in accordance with income tax regulations.
Accordingly, amounts as of August 1, 1993 have been reclassified to reflect
an increase in paid in capital of $55,647,000, an increase in undistributed
net investment income of $832,000 and a decrease in accumulated net
realized gain on investments of $56,479,000.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund may enter into forward foreign
currency contracts. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the
amount reflected in the fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The
face or contract amount in U.S. dollars, as reflected in the schedule of
investments under the caption "Forward Foreign Currency Contracts,"
reflects the total exposure the fund has in that particular currency
contract. The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency contracts is
determined using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation
service. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparty does
not perform under the contract.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset, otherwise gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. The fund's investment
adviser, Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), is responsible for
determining that the value of these underlying securities remains at least
equal to the resale price.
SHORT SALES AGAINST THE BOX. The fund may hedge its investments against
changes in value by engaging in short sales against the box. In a short
sale against the box, the fund sells a borrowed security, while at the same
time either owning an identical security or having the right to obtain such
a security. By selling short against the box the equity underlying one of
its convertible holdings, the fund would seek to offset the effect that a
decline in the underlying equity might have on the value of the convertible
security. While the short sale is outstanding, the fund will not dispose of
the security hedged by the short sale.
The fund is required to establish a margin account with the broker lending
the security sold short. While the short sale is outstanding, the broker
retains the proceeds of the short sale and the fund instructs the custodian
to maintain in a separate account securities having a value at least equal
to the amount of the securities sold short.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF
INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $7,495,866,000 and $6,298,359,000, respectively, of which sale
of U.S. government and government agency obligations aggregated
$212,150,000.
4. FEES AND OTHER
TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed
individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of the fund. The
group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on
the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The
rates ranged from .30% to .52% for the period from August 1, 1993 to
October 31, 1993 and .285% to .520% from November 1, 1993 to July 31, 1994.
In the event that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in
effect during those periods, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates,
as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee. The annual
individual fund fee rate is .20%. For the period, the management fee was
equivalent to an annual rate of .52% of average net assets.
The Board of Trustees approved a new group fee rate schedule with rates
ranging from .27% to .52%. Effective August 1, 1994, FMR has voluntarily
agreed to implement this new group fee rate schedule as it results in the
same or a lower management fee.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
SALES LOAD. For the period, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an
affiliate of FMR and the general distributor of the fund, received sales
charges of $7,670,000 on sales of shares of the fund.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
FSC receives fees based on the type, size, number of accounts and the
number of transactions made by shareholders. FSC pays for typesetting,
printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements.
ACCOUNTING FEES. FSC maintains the fund's accounting records. The fee is
based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket
expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $3,869,000 for the period.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the fund's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$987,000 under this arrangement.
6. SECURITY LENDING.
The fund loaned securities to certain brokers who paid the fund negotiated
lenders' fees. These fees are included in interest income. The fund
receives U.S. Treasury obligations and/or cash as collateral against the
loaned securities, in an amount at least equal to 102% of the market value
of the loaned securities at the inception of each loan. This collateral
must be maintained at not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned
securities during the period of the loan. At period end, there were no
loans outstanding.
7. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED COMPANIES.
An affiliated company is a company in which the fund has ownership of at
least 5% of the voting securities. Transactions with companies which are or
were affiliates are as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Securities Fund and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Growth & Income Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Fidelity Securities Fund: Fidelity Growth & Income Portfolio, including the
schedule of portfolio investments, as of July 31, 1994, and the related
statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes
in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the
financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended.
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility
of the fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of July 31, 1994 by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Fidelity Securities Fund: Fidelity Growth & Income Portfolio as of July
31, 1994, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the
changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then
ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the
period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

DISTRIBUTIONS
The Board of Trustees of Fidelity Securities Fund: Fidelity Growth & Income
Portfolio voted to pay on September 6, 1994, to shareholders of record at
the opening of business on September 2, 1994, a distribution of $0.84
derived from capital gains realized from sales of portfolio securities and
a dividend of $0.10 from net investment income. 9.5% of the dividends
distributed during the fiscal year was derived from interest on U.S.
Government securities which is generally exempt from state income tax. 41%
of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year qualifies for the
dividends received deduction for corporate shareholders. The fund will
notify shareholders in January 1995 of these percentages for use in
preparing 1994 tax returns.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
The first half of 1994 was an unsettling time for many investors. After
three years of a nearly perfect environment for stock market investing,
stock prices generally fell from February through June. Investors disagree
about whether this decline represents only a short-term correction or
signals the beginning of a longer bear market. One can collect statistics
to support either opinion, but of course, nobody knows for sure what will
happen to stock prices in the months ahead.
We do know, however, that market declines are a normal part of stock market
investing. We have historically seen corrections of 10% or more every two
years. That's why I thought this might be a good time to review three basic
investment principles that have proven helpful to successful stock market
investors in every market cycle.
First, take a long-term approach when investing in stocks and stock funds.
If you can afford to leave your money invested through the market's
inevitable ups and downs, you will greatly reduce your vulnerability to any
single decline. Over time, stock prices have gone up - and have
significantly outperformed other types of investments and stayed ahead of
inflation. But in the short-term, because of their volatility, stocks have
greater risk.
Second, you can further manage risk by diversifying your investments. A
stock mutual fund is already diversified, because it invests in many
different companies. You can increase your diversification by investing in
a number of different stock funds, or in different investment categories,
such as bonds. You should also keep money you'll need in the near future in
a more stable investment.
Finally, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing
a set amount of money at the same time each month or quarter. That way, you
can avoid getting caught up in the excitement of a rapidly-rising market -
and won't end up buying all your shares at market highs. This strategy
won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, but
it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. For this to be
effective, you must continue to buy shares in both up and down markets.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We would be happy
to send you a Fidelity FundMatch kit, which can help you determine the mix
of investments that is right for you. You might also find it convenient to
set up a regular investment plan using the Fidelity Automatic Account
Builder.SM
We look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each
performance figure includes changes in a fund's share price, plus
reinvestment of any dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits
the fund earns when it sells stocks that have grown in value).
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1994 PAST 1 LIFE OF
YEAR FUND
Dividend Growth 9.51% 18.27%
S&P 500(registered trademark) 5.16% 9.53%
Average Growth Fund 3.91% 8.07%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, one year, or since the fund started on
April 27, 1993. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had
a 5% return over the past year, you would have $1,050. You can compare
these figures to the performance of the Standard & Poor's Composite Index
of 500 stocks - a common proxy for the U.S. stock market. You can also
compare them to the average growth fund, which reflects the performance of
501 growth funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services. Both benchmarks
include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS

Dividend Growth 9.51% 14.21%
S&P 500(registered trademark) 5.16% 7.47%
Average Growth Fund 3.91% 6.36%
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return
and show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a
constant rate each year.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity
Dividend Growth Fund on April 27, 1993, when the fund started. As the chart
shows, by July 31, 1994, the value of your investment would have grown to
$11,827 - a 18.27% increase on your initial investment. For comparison,
look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With dividends
reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $10,953 - a
9.53% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and
return of a fund that invests in
stocks will vary. That means if
you sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can
ride out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
After generally falling through
much of 1994, U.S. stock prices
rebounded in July on the strength
of improving corporate earnings.
Rising interest rates caused the
stock market to stumble from
February through June. Stocks
largely took their cue from bonds,
which fell sharply due to
concerns that the strengthening
economy might trigger higher
inflation. Late in the period, a
weakening U.S. dollar put
additional downward pressure on
stocks. The Standard & Poor's
500 index had a total return of
5.16% for the 12 months ended
July 31, 1994, mainly due to
gains made in 1993. Cyclical
stocks - those whose prices
tend to move in tandem with the
economy - were among the
market leaders. These included
such sectors as chemicals,
metals and paper. Market
laggards included most
consumer nondurables -
especially retail, beverage and
drug companies. In addition,
rising interest rates hurt such
rate-sensitive sectors as
insurance and utilities. Aside from
Japanese stocks, which made
strong gains due to a
strengthening economy and yen,
most foreign markets suffered
corrections in 1994. However,
strong gains in 1993 helped drive
the Morgan Stanley EAFE
(Europe, Australia, Far East)
index to a 14.13% total return for
the 12 months ended July 31.
The Morgan Stanley Emerging
Markets Free Index was up
40.62%, again due to strong
performance in 1993.
An interview with Fergus Shiel, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Dividend Growth Fund
Q. HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED,
FERGUS?
A. Very well. The fund had a total return of 9.51% for the year ended July
31, 1994, which compares to a 3.91% total return for the average growth
fund tracked by Lipper Analytical Services.
Q. WHY DID THE FUND DO SO WELL?
A. It's difficult for me to speak to the fund's performance before April,
when I took over the fund from Abby Johnson, who is now managing Fidelity
OTC Portfolio. Abby did a great job last year in a very different investing
environment, one in which investing in rapid growth stocks was rewarded.
This year's market has rewarded a more conservative investor, and I've put
more of the fund in larger, more stable companies which tend to have more
predictable earnings.
Q. WHY HAVE THE LARGER COMPANIES BEEN A BETTER INVESTMENT IN THE CURRENT
ENVIRONMENT?
A. It's less likely these companies will tumble in price because they are
usually involved in a number of enterprises, and if one section of their
business falters there are others that can help stabilize earnings. It has
been a very jittery market through the first half of 1994, so I've moved
toward these potentially more stable quality stocks.
Q. WHAT ARE SOME OF THE STOCKS YOU'VE INVESTED IN?
A. Philip Morris is one of the fund's top investments. The stock is selling
at a very reasonable price and it looks like the company will increase the
dividend in August. I've also invested in two regional telephone companies,
Ameritech and Southwestern Bell. Their subscriber bases are growing and
they're benefiting from more reasonable regulations. Both show the
potential for strong cash flows and earnings growth, which give them the
opportunity to increase dividends. Ericsson is the fund's top investment as
of July 31, 1994. This Swedish company is one of the world's largest
providers of wireless communications technology. Its subscriber and systems
markets are both growing. The company has slowed its research and
development costs, which should help its earnings.
Q. IN FACT, TECHNOLOGY HAS GROWN TO BE THE FUND'S LARGEST SECTOR AT 16.8%.
WHERE HAVE YOU FOUND OPPORTUNITIES?
A. Although I build the fund stock by stock, many technology companies have
excellent prospects for earnings growth, in part because of continued
strong demand for personal computers. Two such companies are database
software producer Oracle Systems and semiconductor manufacturer Advanced
Micro Devices. In addition, the recent correction in this sector has
lowered many stock valuations - prices compared to other measures such as
earnings - to very attractive levels.
Q. WHAT STOCKS HAVE DISAPPOINTED THIS PERIOD?
A. Powersoft - a software firm - was one. Management's outlook was less
upbeat than stock market expectations, so its stock price corrected
sharply. Technology stocks can be sensitive when sales slow down due to
saturation or competition. A similar situation occurred with Sybase,
another software company where a specific quarter did not meet
expectations. However, due to its long-term outlook, the fund still owns
shares in Sybase. Custom Chrome - a manufacturer of accessory parts for
Harley Davidson motorcycles - had pricing problems and was a disappointment
in another sector.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. I think it's going to be a stock picker's market, but there are going to
be opportunities to make money and buy cheaply. I'll just have to be
vigilant and sell quickly if a stock seems to be going wrong, because the
market will probably be unforgiving. At the end of the year there's a
tendency for people to get optimistic, so we could see an upswing then. The
beauty of a smaller fund like Dividend Growth is that I can more easily
reposition it when market conditions change.
Q. FERGUS, HOW IS YOUR INVESTING STYLE DIFFERENT FROM THAT OF THE PREVIOUS
MANAGER, ABBY JOHNSON?
A. That's nearly impossible for me to say, because last year's market and
this year's are radically different. However, Abby and I have worked
together, visiting companies and covering some of the same industry groups
when we were analysts. I would say our approaches are probably more similar
than different.

FERGUS SHIEL ON PICKING
STOCKS:
"I look for a number of things
when picking stocks. I look for
situations where earnings
growth is more rapid than
people would expect. I also
look for turnarounds,
companies that seem to be
coming back from hard times.
An example is Armco Steel,
where management has
streamlined operations and
sold unprofitable parts of its
operation. Most importantly, I
look for a strong cash flow,
which gives a company the
opportunity to pay or increase
its dividend, buy up its shares,
or make acquisitions."
(solid bullet) Many of the fund's holdings
have changed, which often
happens when a fund
undergoes a managerial shift.
(solid bullet) The fund had an increase in
cash holdings during the
period as a result of the
management transition.
However, as of July 31, 1994,
cash was down to 0.8% of the
fund.
(solid bullet) The fund has the authority
to use derivatives, but had no
derivative investments as of
July 31, 1994.
DISTRIBUTIONS
85% of the dividends
distributed during the fiscal
year qualifies for the
dividends-received deductions
for corporate shareholders.
The fund will notify
shareholders in January 1995
of these percentages for use in
preparing 1994 income tax
returns.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Fidelity Dividend Growth Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Securities
Fund (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.
The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The following summarizes the
significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the
closing bid price. Securities (including restricted securities) for which
exchange quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange), are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in good
faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision
of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities maturing within sixty days
are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both
of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and
sales of securities, income receipts, and expense payments are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates
of the transactions.
Effective August 1, 1993, the fund adopted Statement of Position (SOP)
93-4: Foreign Currency Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation for
Investment Companies. In accordance with this SOP, reported net realized
gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and
losses from sales and maturities of forward currency contracts ,
disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses realized
between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S.
dollar amount actually received. Further, as permitted under the SOP, the
effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in
securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the
effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included
with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment in
securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for its fiscal
year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding income
taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except certain dividends from foreign
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
INVESTMENT INCOME - CONTINUED
securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, are recorded as soon
as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued
as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld
where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
foreign currency transactions, and losses deferred due to wash sales. The
fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on
redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid deduction for income
tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income may include temporary book and tax
basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund may enter into forward foreign
currency contracts. The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency
contracts is determined using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a
quotation service. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the
foreign currency or if the counterparty does not perform under the
contract.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset, otherwise gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. The fund's investment
adviser, Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), is responsible for
determining that the value of these underlying securities remains at least
equal to the resale price.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other affiliated
entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash
2. OPERATING POLICIES - CONTINUED
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT - CONTINUED
balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are
invested in one or more repurchase agreements that mature in 60 days or
less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or
Federal Agency obligations.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF
INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $249,183,406 and $197,894,507 respectively, of which U.S.
government and government agency obligations aggregated $174,805 and
$170,735, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
basic fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed
individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of the fund.
The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is
based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by
FMR. The rates ranged from .30% to .52% for the period from August 1, 1993
to October 31, 1993 and .285% to .520% for the period from November 1, 1993
to July 31, 1994. In the event that these rates were lower than the
contractual rates in effect during those periods, FMR voluntarily
implemented the above rates as they resulted in the same or a lower
management fee. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%.
The basic fee is subject to a performance adjustment (up to a maximum of
(plus/minus).20%) based on the fund's investment perform-ance as compared
to the appropriate index over a specified period of time.
For the period, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .67%
of average net assets after the performance adjustment.
The Board of Trustees has approved a new group fee rate schedule with rates
ranging from .27% to .52%. Effective August 1, 1994, FMR voluntarily agreed
to implement this new group fee rate schedule as it results in the same or
a lower management fee.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing
and shareholder servicing agent. FSC receives fees based on the type, size,
number of accounts and the number of transactions made by shareholders. FSC
pays for typesetting, printing and mail- ing of all shareholder reports,
except proxy statements.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $151,676 for the period.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the fund's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$20,476 under this arrangement.
6. BANK BORROWINGS.
The fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency
purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. The fund has established
borrowing arrangements with certain banks. Under the most restrictive
arrangement, the fund must pledge to the bank securities having a market
value in excess of 220% of the total bank borrowings. The interest rate on
the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. The
maximum loan and the average daily loan balances during the periods for
which loans were outstanding amounted to $3,237,000 and $2,532,600,
respectively. The weighted average interest rate was 3.625%.Interest
expense includes $2,541 paid under the bank borrowing program.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Securities Fund and the Shareholders of
Fidelity Dividend Growth Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Fidelity Securities Fund: Fidelity Dividend Growth Fund, including the
schedule of portfolio investments, as of July 31, 1994, and the related
statement of operations for the year then ended, and the statements of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year then ended
and for the period April 27, 1993(commencement of operations) to July 31,
1993. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the fund's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of July 31, 1994 by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Fidelity Securities Fund: Fidelity Dividend Growth Fund as of July 31,
1994, the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the
changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the year in
the period then ended and for the period April 27, 1993 (commencement of
operations) to July 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
The first half of 1994 was an unsettling time for many investors. After
three years of a nearly perfect environment for stock market investing,
stock prices generally fell from February through June. Investors disagree
about whether this decline represents only a short-term correction or
signals the beginning of a longer bear market. One can collect statistics
to support either opinion, but of course, nobody knows for sure what will
happen to stock prices in the months ahead.
We do know, however, that market declines are a normal part of stock market
investing. We have historically seen corrections of 10% or more every two
years. That's why I thought this might be a good time to review three basic
investment principles that have proven helpful to successful stock market
investors in every market cycle.
First, take a long-term approach when investing in stocks and stock funds.
If you can afford to leave your money invested through the market's
inevitable ups and downs, you will greatly reduce your vulnerability to any
single decline. Over time, stock prices have gone up - and have
significantly outperformed other types of investments and stayed ahead of
inflation. But in the short-term, because of their volatility, stocks have
greater risk.
Second, you can further manage risk by diversifying your investments. A
stock mutual fund is already diversified, because it invests in many
different companies. You can increase your diversification by investing in
a number of different stock funds, or in different investment categories,
such as bonds. You should also keep money you'll need in the near future in
a more stable investment.
Finally, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing
a set amount of money at the same time each month or quarter. That way, you
can avoid getting caught up in the excitement of a rapidly-rising market -
and won't end up buying all your shares at market highs. This strategy
won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, but
it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. For this to be
effective, you must continue to buy shares in both up and down markets.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We would be happy
to send you a Fidelity FundMatch kit, which can help you determine the mix
of investments that is right for you. You might also find it convenient to
set up a regular investment plan using the Fidelity Automatic Account
Builder.SM
We look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each
performance figure includes changes in a fund's share price, plus
reinvestment of any dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits
the fund earns when it sells stocks that have grown in value).
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1994 PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
YEAR YEARS FUND
OTC -0.36% 69.40% 402.33%
OTC (incl. 3% sales charge) -3.35% 64.31% 387.26%
NASDAQ 2.48% 59.12% 193.47%
Average Mid-Cap Fund 3.33% 72.43% 243.26%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, one year, five years, or since the fund
started on December 31, 1984. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a
fund that had a 5% return over the past year, you would have $1,050. You
can compare these figures to the performance of the NASDAQ Composite Index
- - a common proxy for over-the-counter stocks. You can also compare them to
the average mid-cap fund, which reflects the performance of 79 mid-cap
funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services. Unlike most other funds in
this category, this fund invests in large companies as well as small ones.
Both benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and
exclude the effects of sales charges.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity OTC
Portfolio on December 31, 1984, when the fund began, and paid a 3% sales
charge. As the chart shows, by July 31, 1994, the value of your investment
would have grown to $48,726 - a 387.26% increase on your initial
investment. For comparison, look at how the NASDAQ did over the same
period. The same $10,000 investment would have grown to $29,347 - a 193.47%
increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and
return of a fund that invests in
stocks will vary. That means if
you sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can
ride out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
After generally falling through
much of 1994, U.S. stock prices
rebounded in July on the strength
of improving corporate earnings.
Rising interest rates caused the
stock market to stumble from
February through June. Stocks
largely took their cue from bonds,
which fell sharply due to
concerns that the strengthening
economy might trigger higher
inflation. Late in the period, a
weakening U.S. dollar put
additional downward pressure on
stocks. The Standard & Poor's
500 index had a total return of
5.16% for the 12 months ended
July 31, 1994, mainly due to
gains made in 1993. Cyclical
stocks - those whose prices
tend to move in tandem with the
economy - were among the
market leaders. These included
such sectors as chemicals,
metals and paper. Market
laggards included most
consumer nondurables -
especially retail, beverage and
drug companies. In addition,
rising interest rates hurt such
rate-sensitive sectors as
insurance and utilities. Aside from
Japanese stocks, which made
strong gains due to a
strengthening economy and yen,
most foreign markets suffered
corrections in 1994. However,
strong gains in 1993 helped drive
the Morgan Stanley EAFE
(Europe, Australia, Far East)
index to a 14.13% total return for
the 12 months ended July 31.
The Morgan Stanley Emerging
Markets Free Index was up
40.62%, again due to strong
performance in 1993.
An interview with Abigail Johnson,
Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
OTC Portfolio
Q. ABBY, HOW DID THE FUND DO?
A. After a successful run in 1993, small stocks have mostly suffered in
1994. The fund had a total return of -0.36% for the 12 months ended July
31, 1994. That trailed the NASDAQ Composite Index, which returned 2.48%
during the same period.
Q. GRANTED YOU'VE ONLY BEEN MANAGING THE FUND SINCE MID-APRIL, BUT WHY DID
IT TRAIL THE INDEX?
A. In late 1993 and early 1994, the fund under-performed the index for
several reasons. The fund emphasized investments in the financial, health
care and transportation industries, all of which had relatively weak
performance. In addition, the fund was under-weighted in the technology
sector, as compared to the index, which did well during that period. Over
the past few months, the fund's performance has improved relative to the
index, although it has continued to lag. Broadly speaking, when interest
rates rose and stocks corrected earlier this year, those of smaller,
fast-growing companies were hit harder than larger companies. Many
investors fled to the relative safety of blue-chip stocks when they weren't
selling stock investments altogether. Also, the past few months have been a
time of transition for the fund. I've been making many changes, and I'm
just now nearing the point at which I think the fund is positioned for
better performance.
Q. WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR STRATEGY?
A. First, I've increased the fund's investment in technology stocks from
12.0% on January 31 to 23.7% on July 31. These companies are the heart and
soul of the over-the-counter market. Many are capitalizing on the trend in
American business toward improving productivity through increased spending
on technology, and I want the fund to be there. In fact, I quickly moved
two of the biggest names in the NASDAQ index - Intel and Microsoft - right
to the top of the list of the fund's largest investments. Intel is the
world's leading producer of semiconductors, and I'm confident about the
personal computer market's acceptance of its new product, the Pentium.
While Intel's stock has sputtered lately, Microsoft has boosted the fund's
performance. The company has very high profit margins, and is launching an
exciting new product line next year.
Q. CONVERSELY, THE FUND'S STAKE IN HEALTH CARE HAS FALLEN FROM 15.6% TO
7.7% OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS. WHAT'S THE STORY THERE?
A. As with technology, I've tried to make the size of the fund's health
care investment more closely reflect that of the index. As a quick aside,
I'm allowed to invest up to 35% of the fund in non-OTC, or "listed" stocks
- - those traded on other U.S. or foreign exchanges. However, I don't see
much relative advantage to keeping more than about a 10% stake in listed
stocks right now. In addition, I want the fund to mirror more closely the
make-up of the OTC market going forward. When I began managing the fund, it
had a pretty large investment in listed stocks - many of which were in the
health care sector - and selling them reduced the fund's overall health
care investment. Of the health care stocks the fund now owns, I've tried to
steer toward companies that might be least impacted by potential reform. I
believe that these include smaller companies that manufacture medical and
other technological products. If their products are better and cheaper than
anything else on the market, these companies should do well regardless of
reform. Beyond these stocks, U.S. Healthcare - a rapidly growing health
maintenance organization (HMO) - was the fund's largest health care
investment at the end of July.
Q. YOU MENTIONED LIMITING NON-OTC STOCKS. WHAT TYPES OF THESE STOCKS WILL
THE FUND INVEST IN?
A. When the fund invests in listed stocks, I believe they should be names
that retain the spirit of the over-the-counter market. By this, I mean
growth-oriented companies that would generally fall into some of the OTC
market's larger sectors. Motorola - one of the fund's top 10 investments on
July 31 - is a good example. The company is experiencing exciting growth in
the semiconductor and telecommunications industries and has many of the
same characteristics as the OTC market's technology stocks. In addition,
I'll keep my eyes open for opportunities in foreign stocks, although I
don't expect to invest very heavily overseas. Conversely, listed stocks
I'll probably stay away from include those of drug companies, utilities and
large conglomerates, unless they appear extremely compelling compared to
opportunities in the OTC market. Again, I want the fund's listed stocks to
mirror the spirit of the OTC market, and currently these industries are not
traded over-the-counter.
Q. WHAT OTHER TRAITS WILL THE FUND REFLECT WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED
RESTRUCTURING?
A. I'm working to increase the fund's liquidity - its ability to trade in
and out of stocks in a reasonable period. I plan to do this by more heavily
emphasizing mid- to large-sized OTC stocks - especially among the fund's
top investments - and diversifying bets among the smallest companies. In
addition, I've already begun increasing the number of stocks in the fund.
Every year we hear about the stock of a fast-growing OTC company that
catches fire and quickly shoots upward. I always want the fund to own that
stock, and I think casting a wider net increases my chances. Now I realize
that this strategy also increases the likelihood of owning some mediocre
stocks, but I feel confident that our research and analysis capabilities
will help limit the disappointments.
Q. SPEAKING OF DISAPPOINTMENTS, WHAT WERE THE BIGGEST RECENTLY?
A. Much of the technology sector suffered a correction over the past few
months and the fund felt the effects. This is not unusual; the technology
sector is historically volatile. The trigger came when computer networking
company Cisco Systems reported first quarter earnings that - although
strong - fell below analysts' expectations. Sybase - a database software
company - also corrected hard recently. In fact, the prices of several
technology stocks fell despite excellent earnings growth, and I think that
it may be just a matter of time until prices more accurately reflect the
strong earnings potential of these companies. In addition, there were a few
unrelated stocks that hurt performance. Zebra Technologies, which makes the
machines on which those little bar code stickers are printed, suffered from
delays in new products. Also, Snapple Beverage's stock fell on investor
concerns about future earnings growth.
Q. LET'S TALK ABOUT THE FUTURE. WHAT'S ON THE HORIZON?
A. Over the past year, the strengthening economy has caused investors to
favor cyclical stocks, those whose prices tend to move in step with the
economy, over growth stocks - companies with fast-growing earnings. I think
as the economic expansion slowed a bit, the pendulum gradually started to
swing back toward growth stocks, which is a good sign for the fund. But
interest rates are a big variable. If rates can stabilize and the economy
remains reasonably strong, I think investors will favor companies that are
taking steps internally to produce strong earnings growth over companies
that rely more heavily on a strengthening economy to help them out.
Hopefully, I can pinpoint those companies that are poised for growth before
the rest of the market.

ABIGAIL JOHNSON ON HER
INVESTING STYLE:
"I usually look for stocks whose
earnings are growing faster
than their valuations (prices
relative to earnings) suggest
they are. I'm biased toward
companies with good cash flow
and solid balance sheets. I'll
investigate turnaround stories,
but will lean more toward
stories that document good,
solid growth.
"I plan to spend a lot of time
analyzing the biggest names in
the OTC market - the Intels
and the Microsofts. These are
often stocks of more
established companies with
solid track records of earnings
growth. In addition, they trade
frequently, which offers the
fund liquidity. When there are
opportunities in that group, I'll
jump quickly. I don't want any
of NASDAQ's high-profile
stocks to make significant
moves without my being
there."
(solid bullet) Finance was the fund's
second largest sector
investment on July 31. One of
the fund's top 10 investments
- - Fifth Third Bancorp - has
a growing financial processing
operation and a very small
lending volume. This
usually helps its earnings
remain less sensitive to
changes in interest rates.
(solid bullet) The fund has the authority
to use derivative instruments
such as forward foreign
currency contracts and
futures, but hasn't made
much use of them. On July
31, the fund had no significant
investments in derivatives.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended July 31, 1994
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Fidelity OTC Portfolio (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Securities Fund
(the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The
trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust. The following summarizes the significant
accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the
closing bid price. Securities for which exchange quotations are not readily
available (and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an
exchange), are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at
their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied
procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities maturing within sixty days are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION.
The accounting records of the fund are maintained in U.S. dollars.
Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a
foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates
of exchange at period end. Purchases and sales of securities, income
receipts, and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of the transactions.
Effective August 1,1993, the fund adopted Statement of Position (SOP) 93-4:
Foreign Currency Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation for
Investment Companies. In accordance with this SOP, reported net realized
gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and
losses from sales and maturities of forward currency contracts, disposition
of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses realized between the trade
and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between
the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S. dollar amount
actually received. Further, as permitted under the SOP, the effects of
changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes
in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net
realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment in securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for its fiscal
year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding income
taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date
may have passed, are recorded as soon
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
INVESTMENT INCOME - CONTINUED
as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued
as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld
where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
losses deferred due to wash sales, nontaxable dividends, and foriegn
currency transactions. The fund also utilized earnings and profits
distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the
dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Any
taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the
following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING FOR DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Effective August 1,
1993, the fund adopted Statement of Position 93-2: Determination,
Disclosure, and Financial Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain,
and Return of Capital Distributions by Investment Companies. As a result,
the fund changed the classification of distributions to shareholders to
better disclose the differences between financial statement amounts and
distributions determined in accordance with income tax regulations.
Accordingly, amounts as of July 31,1993 have been reclassified to reflect
an increase in paid in capital of $97,714,000, a decrease in undistributed
net investment income of $14,971,000 and a decrease in accumulated net
realized gain on investments of $82,743,000.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. The fund's investment
adviser, Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), is responsible for
determining that the value of these underlying securities remains at least
equal to the resale price.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other registered
investment companies having management contracts with FMR, may transfer
uninvested cash balances into a joint trading account. These balances are
invested in
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT - CONTINUED
one or more repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury
or Federal Agency obligations.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF
INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $2,239,348,000 and $2,285,462,000, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
basic fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed
individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of the fund. The
group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on
the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The
rates ranged from .30% to .52% for the period from August 1, 1993 to
October 31, 1993 and .285% to .520% for the period from November 1, 1993 to
July 31, 1994. In the event that these rates were lower than the
contractual rates in effect during those periods, FMR voluntarily
implemented the above rates as they resulted in the same or a lower
management fee. The annual individual fund fee rate is .35%. The basic fee
is subject to a performance adjustment (up to a maximum of
(plus/minus).20%) based on the fund's investment performance as compared to
the appropriate index over a specified period of time. For the period, the
management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .50% of average net
assets after the performance adjustment.
The Board of Trustees has approved a new group fee rate schedule with rates
ranging from .27% to .52%. Effective August 1, 1994, FMR has voluntarily
agreed to implement this new group fee rate schedule as it results in the
same or a lower management fee.
SALES LOAD. For the period, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an
affiliate of FMR and the general distributor of the fund, received sales
charges of $697,000 on sales of shares of the fund.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
FSC receives fees based on the type, size, number of accounts and the
number of transactions made by shareholders. FSC pays for typesetting,
printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements.
ACCOUNTING FEES. FSC maintains the fund's accounting records. The fee is
based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket
expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $140,000 for the period.
5. BANK BORROWINGS.
The fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency
purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. The fund has established
borrowing arrangements with certain banks. Under the most restrictive
arrangement, the fund must pledge to the bank securities having a market
value in excess of 220% of the total bank borrowings. The interest rate on
the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. The
maximum loan and the average daily loan balances during the periods for
which loans were outstanding amounted to $99,837,000 and $21,056,000,
respectively. The weighted average interest rate was 5.28%.
6. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED COMPANIES.
An affiliated company is a company in which the fund has ownership of at
least 5% of the voting securities. Transactions with companies which are or
were affiliates are as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Securities Fund and the Shareholders of
Fidelity OTC Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Fidelity Securities Fund: Fidelity OTC Portfolio, including the schedule of
portfolio investments, as of July 31, 1994, and the related statement of
operations for the year then ended the statement of changes in net assets
for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of July 31, 1994, by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Fidelity Securities Fund: Fidelity OTC Portfolio as of July 31, 1994,
the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its
net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the
financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

DISTRIBUTIONS
A total of 3.35% of the dividends distributed during the fiscal year were
derived from interest on U.S. government securities which is generally
exempt from state income tax. A total of 10% of the dividends distributed
during the fiscal year qualifies for the dividends-received deductions for
corporate shareholders. The fund will notify shareholders in January 1995
of these percentages for use in preparing 1994 income tax returns.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
The first half of 1994 was an unsettling time for many investors. After
three years of a nearly perfect environment for stock market investing,
stock prices generally fell from February through June. Investors disagree
about whether this decline represents only a short-term correction or
signals the beginning of a longer bear market. One can collect statistics
to support either opinion, but of course, nobody knows for sure what will
happen to stock prices in the months ahead.
We do know, however, that market declines are a normal part of stock market
investing. We have historically seen corrections of 10% or more every two
years. That's why I thought this might be a good time to review three basic
investment principles that have proven helpful to successful stock market
investors in every market cycle.
First, take a long-term approach when investing in stocks and stock funds.
If you can afford to leave your money invested through the market's
inevitable ups and downs, you will greatly reduce your vulnerability to any
single decline. Over time, stock prices have gone up - and have
significantly outperformed other types of investments and stayed ahead of
inflation. But in the short-term, because of their volatility, stocks have
greater risk.
Second, you can further manage risk by diversifying your investments. A
stock mutual fund is already diversified, because it invests in many
different companies. You can increase your diversification by investing in
a number of different stock funds, or in different investment categories,
such as bonds. You should also keep money you'll need in the near future in
a more stable investment.
Finally, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing
a set amount of money at the same time each month or quarter. That way, you
can avoid getting caught up in the excitement of a rapidly-rising market -
and won't end up buying all your shares at market highs. This strategy
won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, but
it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. For this to be
effective, you must continue to buy shares in both up and down markets.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We would be happy
to send you a Fidelity FundMatch kit, which can help you determine the mix
of investments that is right for you. You might also find it convenient to
set up a regular investment plan using the Fidelity Automatic Account
Builder.SM
We look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each
performance figure includes changes in a fund's share price, plus
reinvestment of any dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits
the fund earns when it sells stocks that have grown in value).
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1994 PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
YEAR YEARS FUND
Blue Chip Growth 14.95% 133.73% 217.86%
Blue Chip Growth (incl. 3% sales charge) 11.50% 126.72% 208.32%
S&P 500(registered trademark) 5.16% 54.91% 129.52%
Average Growth Fund 3.91% 54.10% 269.22%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, one year, five years, or since the fund
started on December 31, 1987. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a
fund that had a 5% return over the past year, you would have $1,050. You
can compare these figures to the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500
Composite Stock Price Index - a common proxy for the U.S. stock market. You
can also compare them to the average growth fund, which reflects the
performance of over 501 growth funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services.
Both benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and
exclude the effects of sales charges.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity Blue
Chip Growth Fund on December 31, 1987, when the fund began, and paid a 3%
sales charge. As the chart shows, by July 31, 1994, the value of your
investment would have grown to $30,832 - a 208.32% increase on your initial
investment. For comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same
period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have
grown to $22,952 - a 129.52% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and
return of a fund that invests in
stocks will vary. That means if
you sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can
ride out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
After generally falling through
much of 1994, U.S. stock prices
rebounded in July on the strength
of improving corporate earnings.
Rising interest rates caused the
stock market to stumble from
February through June. Stocks
largely took their cue from bonds,
which fell sharply due to
concerns that the strengthening
economy might trigger higher
inflation. Late in the period, a
weakening U.S. dollar put
additional downward pressure on
stocks. The Standard & Poor's
500 index had a total return of
5.16% for the 12 months ended
July 31, 1994, mainly due to
gains made in 1993. Cyclical
stocks - those whose prices
tend to move in tandem with the
economy - were among the
market leaders. These included
such sectors as chemicals,
metals and paper. Market
laggards included most
consumer nondurables -
especially retail, beverage and
drug companies. In addition,
rising interest rates hurt such
rate-sensitive sectors as
insurance and utilities. Aside from
Japanese stocks, which made
strong gains due to a
strengthening economy and yen,
most foreign markets suffered
corrections in 1994. However,
strong gains in 1993 helped drive
the Morgan Stanley EAFE
(Europe, Australia, Far East)
index to a 14.13% total return for
the 12 months ended July 31.
The Morgan Stanley Emerging
Markets Free Index was up
40.62%, again due to strong
performance in 1993.
An interview with Michael Gordon, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Blue Chip
Growth Fund
Q. MICHAEL, HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. Very well. For the year ended July 31, 1994, the fund returned 14.95%,
soundly beating the average growth fund, which had a total return of 3.91%
for the past year, and the Standard and Poor's 500 index, which returned
5.16% for the same period.
Q. WHAT WAS BEHIND THIS OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE?
A. Good stock selection was a big part of it. I tend to be a bottom-up
investor, which means I usually look for specific companies -not sectors -
that I expect to be top performers. Over the past year, the stocks I picked
generally outperformed the stocks in the S&P 500. In addition, when many of
those stocks tumbled over the past six months, most of the fund's stocks
held steady.
Q. WHAT DID YOU LOOK FOR IN THE STOCKS YOU CHOSE?
A. As always, I looked for large, high-quality companies that I thought had
the best risk/reward opportunities. This means I tried to buy companies
that were selling at a discount to their earnings growth rate but had
excellent growth potential. I also was interested in stocks where Fidelity
could have an edge. This happens when our internal research department -
which I depend on heavily - has an opinion that's different from the larger
investment community in direction or magnitude. For example, our internal
research people thought IBM, one of the fund's top 10 stocks at the end of
the period, was an outstanding buy when you added up its cost cutting and
expected revenue growth. And so far they've been right. Over the period,
IBM's earnings growth was way ahead of what Wall Street thought it would
be.
Q. DID LOW STOCK PRICES DURING THE PERIOD AFFECT WHICH STOCKS YOU BOUGHT?
A. Yes. I bought more growth and technology stocks recently because I
thought they provided the greatest risk/reward opportunities. As a result,
the fund's investments were more aggressive than they had been in the past.
My strategy is to be flexible and open to whatever stocks offer the fund
good investment opportunities, and I expect that the fund's makeup will
probably change sometime in the future as new investment opportunities
arise.
Q. I KNOW YOU FOCUS ON STOCK PICKING, BUT THE FUND IS HEAVILY WEIGHTED IN
SOME SECTORS, SUCH AS TECHNOLOGY, WHICH MADE UP 31.4% OF THE FUND AT THE
END OF JULY. WHAT'S BEHIND THIS?
A. The fund's stake in technology, its largest sector, has more than
doubled over the past year. This happened largely because some technology
stocks experienced phenomenal earnings growth, yet their prices declined
because of the skittish market. As a result, I bought them. Many of these
technology companies are appealing because their products can provide
companies with huge enhancements to productivity. They also can offer a
tremendous return on investment. A good example is Compuware, one of the
fund's top 10 stocks at the end of the period, which sells software
products to help companies test and debug their mainframe computers.
Compuware estimates that its customers make back 100% of the purchase price
of their products within six months. Another technology company that's
among the fund's top 10 stocks, Motorola, experienced significant growth
because it had tremendous products in the cellular and semiconductor
markets, and these markets were growing rapidly.
Q. ANOTHER INCREASE WAS IN THE FINANCIAL SECTOR, WHICH MADE UP 8.4% OF THE
FUND A YEAR AGO AND 14.0% AT THE END OF THIS PERIOD. WHY DID THIS SECTOR
LOOK GOOD?
A. In late 1993, I sold nearly all of the fund's financial stocks to take
profits. Over the past six months, financial stocks started to look good
again because they were inexpensive. Prices of financial stocks were
destroyed due in part to the rise in interest rates; however their
fundamentals -or business prospects - remained largely intact. This
environment made specific financial stocks, especially some brokerage
stocks, excellent buys. For instance, Merrill Lynch's stock price dropped
dramatically but the company still turned in solid earnings. What I saw in
this company was a great franchise that could be a good long-term
opportunity at an excellent price.
Q. LET'S SWITCH DIRECTION A BIT. IN THE LAST SHAREHOLDERS' REPORT YOU SAID
THAT YOU WERE INVESTING IN THE BLUE-CHIP STOCKS OF TOMORROW. DOES THAT
STILL HOLD TRUE?
A. I think it's more accurate to say that I'm investing in an expanded
universe, including blue chips of the future along with traditional
blue-chip stocks. Keep in mind that while some of the fund's stocks may not
seem like traditional blue chips because they aren't household names, they
are blue-chip stocks with capitalizations of $200 million or above that are
listed in the S&P 500 or Dow Jones Industrial Average. For instance, the
Canadian company Renaissance Energy - an unfamiliar name to most
shareholders - is considered by many investors to be one of the top
companies in the energy field. I'd like to emphasize that at least 65% of
the fund is invested in stocks with market capitalizations of a billion
dollars or more.
Q. MICHAEL, DERIVATIVES HAVE BEEN IN THE NEWS A LOT LATELY. DOES THE FUND
OWN THEM?
A. For the most part, this is a plain vanilla stock fund. However, the fund
does own some forward foreign currency contracts that were used to hedge
against the yen. I held these contracts to protect the value of my Japanese
investments - which were purchased in yen - from a rising dollar. The value
of these contracts declined due to the strength of the yen versus the
dollar. But basically, I see it as a wash since the value of my Japanese
stocks went up when the yen strengthened. It's true that the value of my
Japanese holdings would have increased if I hadn't hedged the yen, but I
wasn't willing to make that move and possibly expose the fund to currency
risk.
Q. IN HINDSIGHT, DO YOU REGRET ANY OF YOUR INVESTMENT DECISIONS?
A. Sure. In terms of overall decisions, I wish I'd never bought electric
utilities, which experienced a significant correction during the past six
months. Other than that, the mistakes I made were on a stock-by-stock
basis. For instance, even though I think its long-term prospects are
strong, I regret not selling Lotus, a computer software company, before its
stock price fell dramatically in the first quarter of 1994.
Q. WHAT DO YOU THINK SHAREHOLDERS CAN EXPECT GOING FORWARD OVER THE NEXT
FEW MONTHS?
A. As I look ahead, I'm very excited about the fund. While I can't predict
how the stock market will perform, I think the fund is positioned to do
well if we move back into a more favorable market. That's because right now
the fund owns more companies that are growing their earnings rapidly and
selling at attractive prices than it ever has since I began managing the
fund.

MICHAEL GORDON ON PICKING
FOREIGN BLUE CHIPS:
"Many Americans assume
that most blue-chip
companies are in the United
States. For example, if you
asked most people to tell you
the name of a blue-chip oil
company, they would
probably mention U.S.-based
Exxon, as opposed to one of
my top stocks, British
Petroleum, which is a larger
company. My outlook tends to
be more international. I look
for good buying opportunities
all over the world.
"In Japan, Suzuki Motor, one
of the fund's investments, is a
strong company that certainly
fits the description of any
American blue-chip company.
It looks good because it's
cutting costs dramatically and
growing sales. In addition, it's
one of the cheapest stocks in
the Japanese auto sector.
"I also like Canadian oil
companies, such as
Renaissance Energy and
Pancanadian. For a number of
reasons - including extremely
high oil reserves -Canadian
oil companies have turned in a
better performance than oil
companies just about
anywhere else in the world."
(solid bullet) The fund had about 20.6%
invested in foreign stocks,
which compares to 12.8% six
months ago. Foreign
investments can involve risks
that domestic investments
don't, such as political and
economic risks, as well as the
risk of currency fluctuation.

For the period ended July 31, 1994
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Securities
Fund (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.
The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The following summarizes the
significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the
closing bid price. Securities for which exchange quotations are not readily
available (and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an
exchange), are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at
their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied
procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities maturing within sixty days are valued at amortized
cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate
current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and
sales of securities, income receipts, and expense payments are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates
of the transactions.
Effective August 1, 1993, the fund adopted Statement of Position (SOP)
93-4: Foreign Currency Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation for
Investment Companies. In accordance with this SOP, reported net realized
gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net gains and
losses from sales and maturities of forward currency contracts, disposition
of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses realized between the trade
and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between
the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S. dollar amount
actually received. Further, as permitted under the SOP, the effects of
changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes
in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net
realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for its fiscal
year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding income
taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date
may have passed, are recorded as soon
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
INVESTMENT INCOME - CONTINUED
as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, which
includes accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.
Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery
of such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
foreign currency transactions and losses deferred due to wash sales. The
fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on
redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid deduction for income
tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income may include temporary book and tax
basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable
income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following
year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING FOR DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Effective August 1,
1993, the fund adopted Statement of Position 93-2: Determination,
Disclosure, and Financial Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain,
and Return of Capital Distributions by Investment Companies. As a result,
the fund changed the classification of distributions to shareholders to
better disclose the differences between financial statement amounts and
distributions determined in accordance with income tax regulations.
Accordingly, amounts as of August 1, 1993 have been reclassified to reflect
an increase in paid in capital of $6,281,000, a decrease in undistributed
net investment income of $686,000, and a decrease in accumulated net
realized gain on investments of $5,595,000.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY
CONTRACTS. The fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts.
These contracts involve market risk in excess of the amount reflected in
the fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The face or contract amount
in U.S. dollars, as reflected in the schedule of investments under the
caption "Forward Foreign Currency Contracts,"
2. OPERATING POLICIES -
CONTINUED
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS - CONTINUED
reflects the total exposure the fund has in that particular currency
contract. The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency contracts is
determined using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation
service. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the foreign
currency or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset, otherwise gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. The fund's investment
adviser, Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), is responsible for
determining that the value of these underlying securities remains at least
equal to the resale price.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of FMR, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one
or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one or more
repurchase agreements that mature in 60 days or less from the date of
purchase, and are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
INTERFUND LENDING PROGRAM. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
SEC, the fund, along with other registered investment companies having
management contracts with FMR, may participate in an interfund lending
program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the
fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating funds.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The fund is permitted to invest in privately placed
restricted securities. These securities may be resold in transactions
exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered.
Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and
expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. At the
end of the period, restricted securities (excluding 144A issues) amounted
to $6,000 or 0% of net assets.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF
INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $4,691,175,000 and $3,326,733,000, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER
TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
basic fee that is calculated on
4. FEES AND OTHER
TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED
MANAGEMENT FEE - CONTINUED
the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied
to the average net assets of the fund. The group fee rate is the weighted
average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets
of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .30% to .52%
for the period from August 1, 1993 to October 31, 1993 and .285% to .52%
for the period from November 1, 1993 to July 31, 1994. In the event that
these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during those
periods, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in
the same or a lower management fee. The annual individual fund fee rate is
.30%. The basic fee is subject to a performance adjustment (up to a maximum
of (plus/minus) .20%) based on the fund's investment performance as
compared to the appropriate index over a specified period of time. For the
period, the management fee was equivalent to an annual rate of .70% of
average net assets.
The Board of Trustees has approved a new group fee rate schedule with rates
ranging from .27% to .52%. Effective August 1, 1994, FMR voluntarily agreed
to implement this new group fee rate schedule as it results in the same or
a lower management fee.
SALES LOAD. Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR,
is the general distributor of the fund. FDC is paid a 3% sales charge on
sales of shares of the fund. Prior to October 12, 1990, FDC was paid a 2%
sales charge and a 1% deferred sales charge. Shares purchased before
