PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
If you can leave your money invested over the long term, you can avoid the
results of the volatility that generally accompanies the stock market in
the short term, as we witnessed last year. You also can help to manage some
of the risks of investing through diversification. A stock fund is already
diversified because it invests in many issues. You can diversify even
further by placing some of your money in several different types of stock
funds or in other investment categories, such as bonds.
If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to consider
moving some of your investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain
amount of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
FIDELITY DEUTSCHE MARK PERFORMANCE PORTFOLIO, L.P.
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. If Fidelity
had not reimbursed certain expenses during the periods shown, the fund's
returns would have been lower.

(incl. maximum 0.4% sales charge)
German Deutsche Mark 12.16% 14.91% 20.21% 33.11%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, five years or since
the fund started on November 16, 1989. For example, if you invested $1,000
in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the
performance of the German deutsche mark, whose returns reflect a
hypothetical unmanaged investment in the currency itself. The exchange
rates used in calculating these returns are based on the mean between the
best available bid and asked quotations at 4 p.m. Eastern time from a pool
of 500 banking institutions which actively trade in this currency.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity
Deutsche Mark Performance Portfolio, L.P. on November 16, 1989, when the
fund started, and paid the maximum 0.4% sales charge. As the chart shows,
by June 30, 1995, the value of your investment would have grown to $18,516
- an 85.16% increase on your initial investment. For comparison, look at
how the German deutsche mark did over the same period. The same $10,000
investment would have grown to $13,311 - a 33.11% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The value of
foreign currencies compared
to the value of the U.S. dollar
changes daily. Changes in
interest rates and political
events can both affect a
currency's value compared to
the dollar. In turn, the share
price and return of a fund that
invests in foreign currencies
will vary. That means if you
sell your shares during a
downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out
short-term ups and downs, you
may have a gain.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity Yen
Performance Portfolio, L.P. on November 16, 1989, when the fund started,
and paid the maximum 0.4% sales charge. As the chart shows, by June 30,
1995, the value of your investment would have grown to $19,870 - a 98.70%
increase on your initial investment. For comparison, look at how the
Japanese yen did over the same period. The same $10,000 investment would
have grown to $16,985 - a 69.85% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The value of foreign
currencies compared to the
value of the U.S. dollar
changes daily. Changes in
interest rates and political
events can both affect a
currency's value compared to
the dollar. In turn, the share
price and return of a fund that
invests in foreign currencies
will vary. That means if you
sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can ride
out short-term ups and downs,
you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Scott Kuldell, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity
Foreign Currency Funds
Q. HOW HAVE THE FUNDS PERFORMED, SCOTT?
A. For the six months ended June 30, 1995, the deutsche mark fund rose
13.84%, compared to a 12.16% increase in the value of the mark relative to
the U.S. dollar; the sterling fund rose 4.06% compared to a 1.79% increase
in the pound; and the yen fund gained 17.84%, compared to a 17.84% increase
in the yen. For the 12-month period ended June 30, 1995, the deutsche mark
fund rose 18.56% while the mark rose 14.91% relative to the U.S. dollar;
the sterling fund rose 7.47% relative to a 3.27% increase in sterling; and
the yen fund gained 16.60% against the 16.42% increase in the yen.
Q. WHY DO YOU THINK THE FUNDS BEAT THEIR RESPECTIVE EXCHANGE RATES?
A. The goal of each fund is to earn the exchange rate plus the interest
rate of the country it follows. To do this, the funds invest in money
market securities either denominated in the foreign currency, or
denominated in U.S. dollars but effectively tied to the foreign currency
through forward currency contracts. The idea is to replicate the return of
a foreign-denominated money market instrument. For example, if interest
rates in the U.K. are 6%, the change in the NAV of the sterling portfolio
should beat movements in the exchange rate by 6%, less fund expenses.
Q. THE YEN FUND CONTINUED TO PERFORM WELL DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS. WHY
DO YOU THINK IT REMAINS SO STRONG?
A. There are a couple of factors at work. With the trade imbalance between
Japan and the U.S., a situation has arisen in which there are many U.S.
dollars in Japan. In the past, many Japanese corporations bought Treasury
bonds with those dollars and assumed currency risk. In recent years, many
Japanese have lost a lot of money that way due to the declining value of
the dollar. The ongoing deflation in Japan has weakened the balance sheet
of many Japanese corporations and they have been required to sell those
dollars in order to strengthen their own positions. This has contributed to
the downward spiral of the dollar. Another element that may be at work is
that the Clinton Administration is allowing the dollar to weaken in order
to put pressure on the Japanese government to do something about the trade
imbalance. The assumption is that the continued strength of the yen would
put the Japanese government in an uncomfortable position and encourage it
to open up Japanese markets.
Q. WHAT ABOUT THE GERMAN MARK? HOW DID IT PERFORM DURING THE PAST SIX
MONTHS?
A. The German mark has been following the yen. We've seen the German
currency doing well against all of the European currencies - ultimately
leading to the mark's strengthening against the dollar. One of the reasons
is deteriorating fiscal situations in peripheral European countries that
have led to the weakening of their currencies against the dollar and the
emergence of the deutsche mark as a "safe haven." When people are selling
the Italian lira to buy marks, there can be a weakening effect on the
dollar. In sum, the strength of the mark is the result of both the strong
fiscal picture in Germany, relative to other European countries, and the
weak dollar versus the yen.
Q. CERTAINLY STERLING HASN'T PERFORMED AS WELL AS THE YEN AND THE MARK . .
.
A. No it hasn't. As I've explained in earlier reports, sterling has acted
like a hybrid between the dollar and the mark for the past several years.
When the deutsche mark most recently strengthened against the dollar,
sterling strengthened as well, but not by as much. During the period, the
U.K. was suffering through some political problems. Until Prime Minister
John Major forced a referendum on his control of the Tory Party in May,
sterling had come under pressure for quite some time.
Q. HOW LONG DO YOU THINK THE DOLLAR CAN CONTINUE ITS DOWNWARD TREND?
A. That's very difficult to say. The yen has been strong since February of
1985 when the dollar peaked. In September of that year, the Plaza Accord
was signed. It was an agreement among the G7 - the United States, Canada,
Japan, Germany, Great Britain, France and Italy - to push down the value of
the dollar. Since then, the dollar has been in a downturn. Many things
could reverse the decline of the dollar. If the U.S. trade deficit with
Japan is reduced significantly, or if Congress cuts the budget deficit, it
could help. Similarly, tax cuts could turn the dollar around. From 1980 to
1985 the dollar rose strongly. This was largely due to tax cuts imposed by
President Reagan. In general, if taxes are lower, investors' expected
after-tax returns are higher and financial assets denominated in dollars
are much more valuable. A stronger dollar might be good news for the U.S.,
but not for the foreign currency funds.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. I feel pretty confident saying that the yen will be weaker five or 10
years from now. Purchasing power parity would suggest that the exchange
rate between the two countries should adjust so that the real or
inflation-adjusted price of a given basket of goods is the same in both
countries. However in the short-term, it's nearly impossible to predict.
Recently, the agreement between the U.S. and Japan on trade issues seems to
have ushered in a period of relative cooperation between the two countries,
which has led to joint intervention operations to support the dollar. The
promise of real efforts to control the U.S. budget deficit has also
provided the dollar with mild support. The deutsche mark, on the other
hand, is not nearly as overvalued as the yen. Short-term interest rate
differentials between the U.S. and Germany are small, and economic growth
rates are similar between the two countries. In general, foreign currency
markets are driven in the short-term by traders' perceptions of where the
dollar is going to go. And that's anyone's guess.

SCOTT KULDELL ON USING THE
FUNDS FOR DIVERSIFICATION
PURPOSES:
"In general, foreign currency
funds do well when the dollar
is weak. So, if the dollar
declines against the yen,
mark, or sterling, the funds'
investments in these
currencies protect the
shareholders' purchasing
power of goods from these
countries.
"In addition, foreign currency
funds usually perform well
when the U.S. stock and bond
markets are having a difficult
time, and poorly when these
markets do well. We've seen
this in the past. For example,
1992 and 1993 were excellent
years for stocks and bonds,
but horrible years for currency
funds. However, in 1994, the
reverse was true.
"Because currency funds can
offer protection against a
weak dollar and a falling stock
and bond market, it may be
wise to include them in a
well-diversified portfolio of
investments."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES.
Fidelity Deutsche Mark Performance Portfolio, L.P., Fidelity Sterling
Performance Portfolio, L.P., and Fidelity Yen Performance Portfolio, L.P.
(the funds) are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the 1940 Act), as open-end management investment companies
organized as limited partnerships in the State of Delaware. Each fund is
authorized to issue an unlimited number of limited partnership shares.
Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), a wholly owned subsidiary of
FMR Corp., is each fund's Non-Managing General Partner and investment
adviser. Each fund has twelve Managing General Partners who supervise the
management and operations of the fund. The following summarizes the
significant accounting policies of the funds:
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION.
The accounting records of the funds 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.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent
net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward currency
contracts and disposition of foreign currencies.
INCOME TAXES. As limited partnerships, the funds are not subject to income
taxes. Instead, each partner is allocated a proportionate share of taxable
income.
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income is accrued as earned.
DISTRIBUTIONS AND ALLOCATIONS.
The funds do not intend to make cash distributions. Net interest income,
realized gains and losses, and other deductions and credits of each fund
are allocated daily to the outstanding shares of each fund. The amounts
allocated 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.
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS. Investment transactions are accounted for as of
trade date.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY
CONTRACTS. The funds use forward contracts to acquire exposure to foreign
currencies. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized
gain or loss reflected in each fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The U.S. dollar value of the currencies each fund has committed to buy is
shown in Note 7 under the caption "Forward Foreign Currency Contracts."
This amount represents the aggregate exposure each fund has acquired
through currency contracts at period end. Losses may arise due to changes
in the value of the foreign

CONTRACTS - CONTINUED
currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms.
The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency contracts is determined
using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
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.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, each 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.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The funds, through their custodian, receive delivery
of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at least
102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. FMR, the funds'
investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of these
underlying securities remains at least equal to the resale price.
3. JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT.
The investments in repurchase agreements through the joint trading account
were with entities whose creditworthiness has been reviewed and found
satisfactory by FMR. The repurchase agreements were dated June 30, 1995 and
due July 3, 1995. The maturity values of the joint trading account
investments were $13,802,070 for Fidelity Deutsche Mark Performance
Portfolio, L.P., $1,181,605 for Fidelity Sterling Performance Portfolio,
L.P., and $7,665,927 for Fidelity Yen Performance Portfolio, L.P., all at
6.15%.
The investments in repurchase agreements through the joint trading account
are summarized as follows:
SUMMARY OF JOINT TRADING
Number of dealers or banks 22
Maximum amount with one dealer or bank 17.1%
Aggregate principal amount of agreements $15,088,144,000
Aggregate maturity amount of agreements $15,095,872,000
Aggregate market value of collateral $15,428,420,000
Coupon rates of collateral 0.0% to 13 3/4%
Maturity dates of collateral 7/31/95 to 2/15/25
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As each fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a fee that
is computed daily at an annual rate of .50% of each fund's average net
assets.
SALES LOAD. For the period, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an
affiliate of FMR and the general distributor of the fund, received sales
charges of $63,782, $6,457 and $40,055 for the Deutsche Mark, Sterling and
Yen Performance Portfolios, respectively, on sales of shares of each fund.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the funds' transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
Effective January 1, 1995, the Board of Trustees approved a revised
transfer agent contract pursuant to which FSC receives account fees and
asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account.
Under the prior transfer agent contract, FSC received 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 FEE. FSC maintains the funds' accounting records. The fee is
based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket
expenses.
5. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse the funds' operating expenses
(excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary
expenses) above an annual rate of 1.50% of average net assets. FMR retains
the ability to be repaid by the funds for these expense reductions in the
event that expenses fall below the limit prior to the end of the fiscal
year. For the period, the the reimbursement reduced expenses by $4,760, $
50,136 and $35,784 for Deutsche Mark, Sterling and Yen Performance
Portfolios, respectively.
6. BENEFICIAL INTEREST.
At the end of the period, FMR was record owner of approximately 14% of the
total outstanding shares of Fidelity Sterling Performance Portfolio, L.P.
Furthermore, one limited partner was record owner of approximately 26% of
the total outstanding shares of Fidelity Yen Performance Portfolio, L.P.
7. COMMITMENTS.
At the period end, each fund had various contracts open which obligate the
funds to take delivery of their respective currencies at specified future
dates. Open contracts were as follows:
