Footnote:
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The principal value and
return on your investment will fluctuate and, on redemption, may be worth more
or less than your original cost. Historically, small company stocks have been
more volatile than large company stocks, U. S. Government Bonds, and Treasury
Bills. An investment in the Government Money Market Fund is not insured or
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other Government
Agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at
$1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.
Excluding the Government Money Market Fund, the Monetta Funds, at the
discretion of the Portfolio Manager, may invest in Initial Public Offerings
(IPO's)which may significantly impact their performance. Due to the
speculative nature of IPO's, there can be no assurance that IPO participation
will continue and that IPO's will have a positive effect on Funds' performance.
For six months ended June 30, 2000, none of the Funds participated in IPO's.

Dear Fellow Shareholders:
We are pleased to enclose the Monetta Family of Funds Semi-Annual Report for
the period ending June 30, 2000. All of the Monetta Funds posted positive
returns, with especially strong performances from the Monetta Fund and Mid-Cap
Fund, which appreciated 14.97% and 14.84%, respectively, for the six-month
period.
Except for the S&P Mid-Cap 400 Index, which was up 8.43% since the beginning of
this year, the other major
stock market indices declined. The Dow Jones, S&P 500 and NASDAQ composite
declined 8.44%, 0.43% and 2.54%, respectively.
The six-month investment returns were affected by continued strong economic
growth, which increased investor concern about aggressive Federal Reserve (Fed)
tightening. Also, the significant technology sector revaluation in April
created excessive market volatility as the NASDAQ lost 35% from its March 10th
peak. Investor concerns subsided in June as economic data showed signs of
slowing, easing inflationary pressure and the probability of further interest
rate increases. Technology and healthcare stocks dominated the performance of
all indices as the "New Economy" growth stocks led the market.
Growth stocks are the core investments of our equity portfolios. The Funds
benefited from investor interest in this sector, particularly in the Small and
Mid-Cap issues. Monetta's primary investment philosophy is to invest in
companies that demonstrate strong and improving growth characteristics. We pay
special attention to money flow trends, stock chart patterns and companies
meeting or exceeding earnings expectations. The sell discipline is swift to
either lock in gains or cut losses quickly.
With increasing evidence that economic activity is slowing and inflationary
pressures easing, the odds of the Fed piloting a "soft landing" for the economy
are improving. Near term market risks include a possible decline in earnings
momentum, a multiple contraction and the November election that could always
provide a few surprises. We believe that the same themes that produced
favorable returns in the past will continue to do so in the future. Investor
enthusiasm for technology stocks is still high as they continue to report
exceptionally strong earnings. We continue to be overweighed in this sector of
the market.
We are pleased to announce that we have recently updated the Monetta website at
www.monetta.com. There is a new educational section called Storyland and new
speed buttons for quick access to the most frequently visited pages.
Also, in the very near future, Monetta shareholders will be able to view their
accounts using the Internet. This is our first step towards creating an
interactive shareholder information system.
We appreciate your continued confidence in the Monetta Funds and look forward
to a profitable future.
Sincerely,
Robert S. Bacarella Timothy R. Detloff
President and Founder Vice-President

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The principal value and
return on your investment will fluctuate and, on redemption, may be worth more
or less than your original cost. The recent growth rate in the stock market
has helped to produce short-term returns that are not typical and may not
continue in the future. Because of ongoing market volatility, fund performance
may be subject to substantial short-term changes. The graph to the right

COMMENTARY
The Monetta Fund posted a return of 14.97% during the first half of 2000, well
ahead of the 3.04% return for the benchmark Russell 2000 Index. For the one-
year period ended June 30, 2000, the Fund's return was 71.78% versus the
Russell 2000 Index of 14.32%
In mid 1999, we increased the weightings in our technology, telecommunications
and health care stocks. Despite the volatility during the March to May 2000
time period, these groups continue to perform well as they all have excellent
fundamentals. The strong revenue and earnings growth that these companies are
demonstrating is expected to extend well into the year 2001. Because of this
visibility, the market is rewarding these stocks.
A number of our holdings have produced excellent returns this year. Among our
strongest performing stocks are Power-One, Inc., Keithley Instruments, Newport
Corp. and Anaren Microwave. On June 30, 2000 they represented 0.69%, 0.91%,
0.80% and 0.89%, respectively, of net assets.
We continue to maintain approximately 250 positions in the Fund. This is due
to stock liquidity issues and our desire to protect against severe individual
stock volatility. While the market has rewarded companies that demonstrate
strong fundamentals, it is equally harsh when a company does not meet
expectations.
We continually monitor industries and individual stocks for changes in
sentiment that can be profitably exploited. For example, generic drug stocks
came into favor earlier in 2000, and we took positions in a number of
securities which have done well. We will continue to stay heavily invested in
technology and health care, but will be quick to shift more assets into other
industry groups if situations dictate.
We are encouraged by the continued strong performance of small-cap stocks in
relation to large-cap stocks. Given the extremely long period before 1999 that
small-cap stocks under-performed relative to large-caps, we are hopeful that
the current trend of small-cap out performance will continue for some time to
come.

COMMENTARY
The Monetta Small-Cap Equity Fund posted a return of 0.37% during the first
half of 2000, which lagged the Russell 2000 Index benchmark return of 3.04%.
For the one-year ended June 30, 2000, the Fund's return was 46.56% versus the
Russell 2000 Index of 14.32%.
The Monetta Small-Cap Equity Fund is a concentrated portfolio, generally
holding between 30 and 45 positions due to its small asset base. Because of
the more concentrated equity position size, individual stock performance and
volatility will have a much larger impact on fund performance. As the asset
base increases, we intend to increase the number of holdings.
The market was extremely volatile during the March through May 2000 time
period, with the Nasdaq index falling over 35% from its peak on March 10, 2000
to its trough in late May. Because of the concentrated nature of the Monetta
Small-Cap Equity Fund, it suffered disproportionately during this market
downturn. This is the primary reason why the Small-Cap Fund under-performed
its benchmark during the first half of 2000.
A number of individual securities posted very strong returns during the first
half of 2000. The two strongest performers were Anaren Microwave and Silicon
Storage Technology. On June 30, 2000 they represented 3.1% and 1.7%,
respectively, of net assets. Securities which performed poorly were eliminated
from the portfolio, consistent with our sell discipline.
We are encouraged by the strong move in small-cap stocks during the month of
June 2000. We are identifying companies in the technology, health care and
other related areas which are demonstrating excellent revenue and earnings
growth. These stocks are currently well off the price levels attained earlier
in 2000 and are the types of companies that we are currently adding to the
Fund.
We continue to feel that there has never been a better time to be invested in
small-cap stocks. There are many exciting high growth companies in this
investment class.

COMMENTARY
For the first half of 2000, the Mid-Cap Fund posted a strong return of 14.84%.
It significantly outperformed the 8.43% return of its benchmark, the S&P Mid-
Cap 400 Index. For the one-year period ended June 30, 2000, the Fund's return
was up 57.58%, which was more than triple the 15.71% return of its benchmark.
This Fund invests primarily in medium sized companies with strong growth
characteristics. The Fund's growth emphasis kept it away from weaker areas of
the market, such as retail type companies. The Fund is broadly invested in the
technology sector, which accounted for most of its above average relative
performance.
Within industry groups, we initiated positions in the banking and healthcare
industries. New stock purchases included Northern Trust, State Street Corp.,
Pacific Health Systems, Inc. and Wellpoint Health Network, Inc. With the
purchase of SDL Inc., RF Micro Devices Inc. and Digital Lightwave, investments
in the Telecommunication Equipment group increased from 6.1% to 11.3%.
Among the Fund's top individual stock performers, for 2000, were PMC-Sierra,
Inc., Scientific Atlanta, Inc. and Siebel Systems, Inc. At June 30, 2000,
these securities represented 1.21%, 1.36% and 1.49%, respectively, of the Fund.
The worst contributors to Fund performance included Commerce One, Inc., Legato
Systems, RCN Corporation and Efficient Networks. As part of our sell
discipline, all except the Commerce One issue were sold. The Commerce One
position is currently under review.
This is an actively managed portfolio that is constantly seeking out growth
companies with above average earnings and growth prospects. We continue to
emphasize the technology and healthcare sectors. To minimize the risk of one
security significantly affecting fund performance, we are gradually increasing
the number of individual fund holdings.
Due to the liquidity and speculative nature of this Mid-Cap area, short-term
volatility could be excessive. It is important to maintain a long-term
investment time horizon when investing in this sector of the market.

COMMENTARY
For the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Large-Cap Fund posted a solid
return of 4.99%. The Fund exceeded its benchmark index, the S&P 500, which
declined 0.43% since the beginning of the year. For the one-year period ended
June 30, 2000, the Fund posted a 32.24% return significantly exceeding the S&P
500 Index return of 7.24%.
Large capitalization growth stocks continued to be the market leaders over the
past six months. The Fund's emphasis on Large-Cap growth stocks enhanced its
return relative to the benchmark. Technology was one of the top performing
industry sectors for 2000. The largest technology sector weightings were the
telecommunication equipment and computer related sectors, representing 15.5%
and 17.9% respectively, of the portfolio.
Fund activity increased, especially during the second quarter, when technology
stocks declined significantly. We used this market pullback as a buying
opportunity to shift into leading technology companies in the fiber-optic area
such as Corning, Inc. and Nortel Networks Corp. We also added to the Internet
backbone sector by initiating positions in Juniper Networks, Oracle Corporation
and Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. We reduced the Fund's exposure to the
media, retail and oil/gas sectors, with the sale of Clear Channel
Communications, Dayton Hudson/Target and Halliburton.
Among the Fund's strongest individual stock performers since year-end were
Micron Technology, Corning, Inc., and Oracle Corp. On June 30, 2000 these
issues represented 2.83%, 2.89% and 2.70%, respectively, of net assets. One of
the Fund's weakest performers was Microsoft primarily due to the Justice
Department antitrust investigation. We continue to like the company's long-
term prospects and are monitoring this situation closely.
Due to the exceptional investment returns of the larger capitalization issues
over the past few years, we anticipate much more subdued price appreciation
this year. Stock selection, especially in those companies that are insulated
from economic slow down or higher interest rate levels, is a primary investment
consideration. We continue to seek out those companies whose earnings and
revenues are growing at an accelerated rate.

COMMENTARY
For the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Balanced Fund continued to perform
well, with a return of 5.28%. This return compared favorably to that generated
by the S&P 500 Index and the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index
which returned (0.43%) and 4.18%, respectively.
The Fund's performance for the year ended June 30, 2000 was up a strong 21.41%,
significantly ahead of the S&P 500 and Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate
Bond Index returns of 7.24% and (4.32%), respectively.
Throughout the first half of the year, the Fund maintained a stock/bond asset
mix of approximately 70%/30%. In terms of investment performance, the stock
portfolio represented almost 98% of the total return. The stock holdings
continue to be weighted toward the larger capitalization issues versus the mid-
cap or small-cap stock holdings.
The Fund's performance benefited from its large capitalization technology
weightings and sector shifts. For example, the retail sector was reduced from
9.3% of the portfolio to 2.7% as the Dayton Hudson/Target position was sold.
Also trimmed was the technology software sector in favor of telecommunications
stocks that traded at attractive price levels during the April/May market
correction. New stock purchases included Corning, Inc., JDS Uniphase Corp. and
Sycamore Networks, Inc.
The best performing security holdings included; M-Systems Flash Disk Pioneers
Ltd., Scientific-Atlanta, Inc. and Intel Corp. Lagging stocks included Home
Depot, Inc., Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and Lucent Technologies, Inc.
The fixed income portion of the portfolio appreciated approximately 4% during
the first half. The fixed income performance benefited from the Fund's over
weighting in the long-term Treasury market. The Treasury curve inverted as the
Treasury announced an aggressive buyback program due to anticipated surpluses.
We are gradually diversifying the portfolio into more holdings to minimize the
risk of a security having a significant impact on performance. Also, we
continue to emphasize investments in the large capitalization growth stocks to
minimize portfolio volatility that has been evident in the mid-cap and small-
cap areas.

COMMENTARY
The Monetta Intermediate Bond Fund gained 1.4% for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2000 and gained 3.43% over the twelve month period ended June 30,
2000. This compares with the Lehman Government/Corporate Intermediate Bond
Index return of 3.22% and 4.23%, respectively. During the first six months of
the year, there were no major changes to the investment strategy. The Fund
continues to minimize maturity/interest rate risk versus the Lehman
Intermediate Government/Corporate Benchmark while over-weighting the higher
yielding sector of the corporate bond market.
The Fund under-performed its benchmark and peer group during the first six
months of the year due primarily to a position in Conseco Finance, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Conseco, Inc. In April 2000, Conseco was forced to restate
earnings for calendar year 1999, after assuring investors and rating agencies
in early January that everything was fine. Conseco has replaced its management
and taken numerous steps to rectify its problems. We are optimistic that over
time, the actions being taken by the company will be fruitful and result in a
substantial recovery in
security valuation.
The first half of 2000 produced many challenges and few rewards for the fixed
income investor. The year began with Y2K euphoria as the country realized the
world, as we know it, was not going to end. By March however, reality set in
as the Fed had raised the Federal funds rate to 6% - its highest level since
early 1995. The Fed was concerned with a significant GDP growth rate
transitioning to a higher inflation risk. However, an extraordinary event was
unfolding - the "inverted yield curve"- where 30 year Treasury rates fell 64
basis points to 5.89%, while short rates were rising. This inversion was
caused by a supply imbalance driven by three straight years of government
surpluses coupled with the government intention to buy back outstanding
Treasury issues longer than 15 years.
We are encouraged by favorable prospects for a more rewarding fixed income
environment in the second half of 2000. Recent economic data is showing some
signs that the interest rate increases over the past year are starting to work
exhibiting the Fed's resolve to effect a "soft landing" for the economy. Yield
spreads for non-treasury sectors remain at historically high levels and present
a unique opportunity for the Fund to outperform.

COMMENTARY
The Monetta Government Money Market Fund posted a return of 2.78% for the six
months ended June 30, 2000, increasing the one-year return to 5.31%. The
return compares favorably to the Lipper U.S. Government Money Market Funds
category, which was up 2.66% and 5.05%, respectively, for the same period.
The Fund's investment strategy has not changed. We continue to overweight the
agency discount note sector versus government bills because of the yield
premium that this sector provides. As of June 30, 2000, the average maturity
of the Fund was 30 days in anticipation that the Federal Reserve will continue
to raise short-term interest rates.
The first six months of 2000 did not disappoint those investors expecting a
diligent Fed on a mission to slow economic growth. The largest of six rate
increases since June 1999 <n~> 50 basis points <n~> took place on May 16, 2000.
At this time the economic data indicate some "economic slowing" is occurring
but the high level of consumer confidence and a stronger stock market could
encourage the Fed to continue to hike rates during the last half of 2000. We
are encouraged by the fact that Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan is a gradualist,
and in an uncertain environment, will feel his way forward carefully.
We will continue to maintain a defensive posture until we see signs that
interest rates are peaking. At such time we will explore maturity extension
and/or yield spread opportunities in available sector choices.
The Monetta Government Money Market Fund is the most conservative of the
Monetta Family of Mutual Funds. Its primary objectives are the preservation of
capital and liquidity. The investment emphasis is on stability and the highest
quality investments.

The Monetta Family of Mutual Funds is comprised of Monetta Fund, Inc. and each
of the Trust Series and is
collectively referred to as the Funds. The following is a summary of
significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of
their financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles:
(a) Securities Valuation
Investments are stated at market value based on the last reported sale price on
national securities exchanges, or the NASDAQ Market, on the last business day
of the period. Listed securities and securities traded on the over-the-counter
markets that did not trade on the last business day are valued at the mean
between the
quoted bid and asked prices. Short-term securities, including all securities
held by the Government Money Market Fund, are stated at amortized cost, which
is substantially equivalent to market value.
(b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the Funds<i'> management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the results of
operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
(c) Federal Income Taxes
It is each Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, no
provision for federal income taxes is required.
<PAGE>
Notes To Financial Statements June 30, 2000
The Funds intend to utilize provisions of the federal income tax laws which
allow them to carry a realized
capital loss forward for eight years following the year of the loss and offset
such losses against any future
realized capital gains. At December 31, 1999, Monetta Intermediate Bond Fund
had accumulated capital loss carry forwards for tax purposes of $28,202, which
will expire on December 31, 2007.
Net realized gains or losses differ for financial reporting and tax purposes as
a result of losses from wash sales, post October 31 losses which are not
recognized for tax purposes until the first day of the following fiscal year,
and losses and gains from real estate investment trusts.
(d) General
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Daily realized
gains and losses from security transactions are reported on the first-in,
first-out cost basis. Interest income is recorded daily on the accrual basis
and dividend income on the ex-dividend date. Bond Discount/Premium is amortized
on a straight line basis over the life of each applicable security. Income
received from class action settlements is recorded as other income when
received.
(e) Distributions of Incomes and Gains
Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Funds (except for the
Government Money Market Fund) on the ex-dividend date. The Government Money
Market Fund declares dividends daily and automatically reinvests such dividends
daily. Due to inherent differences in the characterization of short-term
capital gains under
generally accepted accounting principles and for federal income tax purposes,
the amount of distributable net investment income for book and federal income
tax purposes may differ. These differences are permanent in nature and may
result in distributions in excess of book basis net investment income for
certain periods.
Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term
capital gains, which are
included as ordinary income for tax purposes.
For federal income tax purposes, a net operating loss recognized in the current
year cannot be used to offset future year's net investment income. The Monetta
Large-Cap Equity Fund and Monetta Mid-Cap Equity Fund had net operating losses
for tax purposes of $56,522 and $109,495, respectively, which were offset by
short-term capital gains and were reclassified from accumulated undistributed
net investment loss to accumulated undistributed net realized gain. The Monetta
Small-Cap Equity Fund had net operating losses for tax purposes of $63,347
which were reclassified from accumulated undistributed net investment loss to
capital.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, the Monetta Balanced Fund, Monetta
Intermediate Bond Fund, and Monetta Large-Cap Equity Fund paid long-term
capital gains of $237,045, $10,251, and $195,944, respectively. For corporate
shareholders of the Monetta Large-Cap Equity Fund, 31% of the income
distributions for the year ended December 31, 1999, qualify for the dividend
received deduction.
