FUND FACTS
IN THIS REPORT:
ANSWERS TO TIMELY QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS.
- - HOW DID THE FUND RESPOND TO RISING INTEREST RATES IN THE U.S. AND OVERSEAS?
- - WHERE ARE YOU FINDING THE MOST ATTRACTIVE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES TODAY?
FACTS EVERY SHAREHOLDER SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
OPPENHEIMER STRATEGIC DIVERSIFIED INCOME FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 The Fund's objective is to seek high current income by investing in three
broad fixed income sectors: U.S. government issues, foreign fixed income
securities, and high-yield lower-rated corporate bonds.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 The Fund's standardized yield for the 30 days ended September 30, 1994 was
7.11%.(1)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 Total return for the period from inception of the Fund on February 1, 1994
to September 30, 1994 was -0.42%.(2)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 "The Fund's flexibility to shift assets strategically among bond market
sectors is a major plus for shareholders in the current investment
environment. It has allowed us to capitalize on opportunities offered in
higher-yielding corporate bonds, the best performing bond market sector
over the last 12 months. And it has enabled us to limit the portfolio's
exposure to rising interest rates worldwide."
PORTFOLIO MANAGERS DAVID NEGRI AND ART STEINMETZ, SEPTEMBER 30, 1994
(1) Standardized yield is net investment income calculated on a
yield-to-maturity basis for the 30-day period ended 9/30/94, divided by the
maximum offering price at the end of the period, compounded semi-annually and
then annualized. Falling net asset values will tend to artificially raise
yields.
(2) Total return is based on a hypothetical investment in the Fund for the
period shown, after deducting the contingent deferred sales charge of 1%.
All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Investment and principal
value on an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor's shares,
when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS
Oppenheimer Strategic Diversified Income Fund provided shareholders an
attractive level of income for the 8 months ended September 30, 1994. At that
date, the Fund's standardized 30-day yield was 7.11%.(3)
Your managers' ability to shift assets strategically among three
sectors--U.S. government securities, high-yield corporate bonds and foreign
fixed income securities--played an important role in the Fund's performance
over the past year. As the Federal Reserve and central banks worldwide moved
aggressively to raise short-term interest rates to fend off inflation, your
managers were able to capture rising yields while limiting the portfolio's price
erosion.
As U.S. interest rates began to rise, your managers reduced the Fund's
exposure to long-term U.S. government bonds, as well as to high-yield bonds
issued by consumer-durable and financial services companies, whose earnings are
sensitive to interest rate changes.
The proceeds from these sales were used to add to holdings in
higher-yielding corporate bonds issued by larger industrial companies, whose
earnings tend to rise in the middle-to-late stages of an economic expansion. In
addition, your managers increased positions in chemicals, mining, metals, and
forest products sectors.
As interest rates rose offshore and the dollar weakened against major
currencies, positions in Latin America and other emerging markets also were
reduced, while more investments were centered in Europe. In addition to
increasing the portfolio's holdings of foreign government bonds, which made up
14.8% of the portfolio on September 30, your managers focused attention on large
European industrial companies positioned to benefit from economic growth.
Looking ahead, your managers don't anticipate major changes in the
portfolio's composition in the near term. The Fund's allocations will, of
course, be adjusted should the economic expansion appear to be ending, but all
signs are currently pointing to continued gradual growth--and your Fund is
well-positioned to provide attractive returns.
We appreciate the confidence you have placed in Oppenheimer Strategic
Diversified Income Fund, and we look forward to continuing to help you reach
your investment goals.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT Oppenheimer Strategic Diversified Income Fund (the Fund)
ACCOUNTING POLICIES is a separate series of Oppenheimer Strategic Funds Trust,
a diversified, open-end management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The Fund's investment advisor is Oppenheimer
Management Corporation (the Manager). The Fund offers a
single class of shares, designated as Class C shares,
which may be subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
----------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT VALUATION. Portfolio securities are valued at
4:00 p.m. (New York time) on each trading day. Listed and
unlisted securities for which such information is
regularly reported are valued at the last sale price of
the day or, in the absence of sales, at values based on
the closing bid or asked price or the last sale price on
the prior trading day. Long-term debt securities are
valued by a portfolio pricing service approved by the
Board of Trustees. Long-term debt securities which cannot
be valued by the approved portfolio pricing service are
valued by averaging the mean between the bid and asked
prices obtained from two active market makers in such
securities. Short-term debt securities having a remaining
maturity of 60 days or less are valued at cost (or last
determined market value) adjusted for amortization to
maturity of any premium or discount. Securities for which
market quotes are not readily available are valued under
procedures established by the Board of Trustees to
determine fair value in good faith. An option is valued
based upon the last sale price on the principal exchange
on which the option is traded or, in the absence of any
transactions that day, the value is based upon the last
sale price on the prior trading date if it is within the
spread between the closing bid and asked prices. If the
last sale price is outside the spread, the closing bid or
asked price closest to the last reported sale price is
used. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are
valued at the forward rate on a daily basis.
----------------------------------------------------------
SECURITY CREDIT RISK. The Fund invests in high yield
securities, which may be subject to a greater degree of
credit risk, greater market fluctuations and risk of loss
of income and principal, and may be more sensitive to
economic conditions than lower yielding, higher rated
fixed income securities. The Fund may acquire securities
in default, and is not obligated to dispose of securities
whose issuers subsequently default. At September 30,
1994, securities with an aggregate market value of
$832,577, representing 1.88% of the Fund's total assets
were in default.
----------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of
the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Prices of
securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of
exchange. Amounts related to the purchase and sale of
securities and investment income are translated at the
rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of
such transactions.
The Fund generally enters into forward currency exchange
contracts as a hedge, upon the purchase or sale of a
security denominated in a foreign currency. In addition,
the Fund may enter into such contracts as a hedge against
changes in foreign currency exchange rates on portfolio
positions. A forward exchange contract is a commitment to
purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date, at a
negotiated rate. Risks may arise from the potential
inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the
contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of
a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates
on investments is separately identified from the
fluctuations arising from changes in market values of
securities held and reported with all other foreign
currency gains and losses in the Fund's results of
operations.

----------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The Fund requires the custodian to
take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal
Reserve Book Entry System or to have segregated within the
custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for
repurchase agreements. If the seller of the agreement
defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if
the seller enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of
the value of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or
limited.
----------------------------------------------------------
OPTIONS WRITTEN. The Fund may write covered call and put
options. When an option is written, the Fund receives a
premium and becomes obligated to sell the underlying
security at a fixed price, upon exercise of the option.
In writing an option, the Fund bears the market risk of an
unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying
the written option. Exercise of an option written by the
Fund could result in the Fund selling or purchasing a
security at a price different from the current market
value. All securities covering call options written are
held in escrow by the custodian bank and the Fund
maintains liquid assets sufficient to cover written put
options in the event of exercise by the holder.
----------------------------------------------------------
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The Fund intends to continue to
comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net
realized gain on investments not offset by loss
carryovers, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income
tax provision is required.
----------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. The Fund intends to
declare dividends from net investment income each day the
New York Stock Exchange is open for business and pay such
dividends monthly. Distributions from net realized gains
on investments, if any, will be declared at least once
each year.
----------------------------------------------------------
OTHER. Investment transactions are accounted for on the
date the investments are purchased or sold (trade date)
and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Discount on securities purchased is amortized over the
life of the respective securities, in accordance with
federal income tax requirements. Realized gains and
losses on investments and options written and unrealized
appreciation and depreciation are determined on an
identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for
federal income tax purposes. Dividends in kind are
recognized as income on the ex-dividend date, at the
current market value of the underlying security. Interest
on payment-in-kind debt instruments is accrued as income
at the coupon rate and a market adjustment is made on the
ex-date.

5. MANAGEMENT FEES Management fees paid to the Manager were in
OTHER accordance with the investment advisory agreement
TRANSACTIONS WITH and with the Fund which provides for an annual fee
AFFILIATES of .75% on the first $200 million of net assets
with a reduction of .03% on each $200 million
thereafter to $800 million, .60% on the next $200
million and .50% on net assets in excess of
$1 billion. The Manager has agreed to reimburse
the Fund if aggregate expenses (with specified
exceptions) exceed the most stringent applicable
regulatory limit on Fund expenses. In addition,
the Manager has voluntarily undertaken to
reimburse Fund expenses to the level needed to
maintain a stable dividend.
During the eight months ended September 30, 1994,
Oppenheimer Funds Distributor, Inc. (OFDI)
received contingent deferred sales charges of
$18,270 upon redemption of Fund shares, as
reimbursement for sales commissions advanced by

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oppenheimer Shareholder Services (OSS), a division
of the Manager, is the transfer and shareholder
servicing agent for the Fund, and for other
registered investment companies. OSS's total
costs of providing such services are allocated
ratably to these companies.
Under an approved distribution and service plan,
the Fund may expend up to .25% of its net assets
annually to reimburse OFDI for costs incurred in
connection with the personal service and
maintenance of accounts that hold shares of the
Fund, including amounts paid to brokers, dealers,
banks and other financial institutions. In
addition, the Fund's shares are subject to an
asset-based sales charge of .75% of net assets
annually, to reimburse OFDI for sales commissions
paid from its own resources at the time of sale
and associated financing costs. In the event of
termination or discontinuance of the plan, the
Board of Trustees may allow the Fund to continue
payment of the asset-based sales charge to OFDI
for distribution expenses incurred on Fund shares
sold prior to termination or discontinuance of the
plan. During the period ended September 30, 1994,
OFDI retained $143,650 as reimbursement for Class
C sales commissions and service fee advances, as
well as financing costs.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. RESTRICTED The Fund owns securities purchased in private
SECURITIES placement transactions, without registration under
the Securities Act of 1933 (the Act). The
securities are valued under methods approved by
the Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value.

net assets (determined at the time of purchase) in
restricted and illiquid securities, excluding
securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule
144A of the Act that are determined to be liquid

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Oppenheimer Strategic Diversified Income Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of
assets and liabilities, including the statement of
investments, of Oppenheimer Strategic Diversified
Income Fund as of September 30, 1994, the related
statement of operations for the period from
February 1, 1994 (commencement of operations) to
September 30, 1994, the statement of changes in
net assets for the period from February 1, 1994
(commencement of operations) to September 30, 1994
and the financial highlights for the period
February 1, 1994 (commencement of operations) to
September 30, 1994. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit 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 and financial highlights.
Our procedures included confirmation of securities
owned at September 30, 1994, by correspondence
with the custodian and brokers; where replies were
not received from brokers, we performed other
auditing procedures. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and
financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of
Oppenheimer Strategic Diversified Income Fund at
September 30, 1994, the results of its operations,
the changes in its net assets and the financial
highlights for the above stated period, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION (Unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In early 1995, shareholders will receive
information regarding all dividends and
distributions paid to them by the Fund during
calendar year 1994. Regulations of the U.S.
Treasury Department require the Fund to report
this information to the Internal Revenue Service.
Dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year
ended September 30, 1994 which are not designated
as capital gain distributions should be multiplied
by .40% to arrive at the net amount eligible for
the corporate dividend-received deduction.
The foregoing information is presented to assist
shareholders in reporting distributions received
from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service.
Because of the complexity of the federal
regulations which may affect your individual tax
return and the many variations in state and local
tax regulations, we recommend that you consult
your tax advisor for specific guidance.
