Item 2:  Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Operational Overview: Advisor Selections

         Due to the nature of the Fund's business, its results of operations
depend on Merrill Lynch Investment Partners Inc., (MLIP)s ability to determine
the appropriate percentage of each series' assets to allocate to them for
trading, as well as the Advisors' ability to recognize and capitalize on trends
and other profit opportunities in different sectors of the world commodity
markets.  MLIP's Advisor selection procedure and leveraging analysis, as well as
the Advisors' trading methods, are confidential, so that substantially the only
information that can be furnished regarding the Fund's results of operations is
contained in the performance record of its trading.  Unlike operating
businesses, general economic or seasonal conditions do not directly affect the
profit potential of the Fund, and its past performance is not necessarily
indicative of future results.  Because of the speculative nature of its trading,
operational or economic trends have little relevance to the Fund's results.
MLIP believes, however, that there are certain market conditions, for example,
markets with strong price trends, in which the Fund has a better likelihood of
being profitable than in others.

         MLIP has no timetable or schedule for making Advisor changes or
reallocations, and generally intends to make a medium- to long-term commitment
to all Advisors selected.  However, there can be no assurance as to the
frequency or number of the Advisor changes which may take place in the future,
or as to how long any of the current Advisors will continue to manage assets for
the Fund.

Results of Operations - General
- -------------------------------

         MLIP believes that multi-Advisor futures funds should be regarded as
medium- to long-term investments but, unlike an operating business, it is
difficult to identify trends in the Fund's operations and virtually impossible
to make any predictions regarding future results based on results to date.

         Markets in which sustained price trends occur with some frequency tend
to be more favorable to managed futures investments than whipsaw, choppy
markets, but (i) this is not always the case, (ii) it is impossible to predict
when trending markets will occur and (iii) different Advisors are affected
differently by trends in general as well as by particular types of trends.

         The Fund controls credit risk in its trading in the derivatives markets
by trading only through Merrill Lynch entities which MLIP believes to be
creditworthy.  The Fund attempts to control the market risk inherent in its
derivatives trading by utilizing a multi-advisor, multi-strategy structure.
This structure purposefully attempts to diversify the Fund's Advisor group among
different strategy types and market sectors in an effort to reduce risk
(although the Fund's portfolio currently emphasizes technical and trend-
following approaches).

Importance of Market Factors
- ----------------------------

         Comparisons between the Fund's performance in a given period in one
fiscal year to the same period in a prior year are unlikely to be meaningful,
given the uncertainty of price movements in the markets traded by the Fund.  In
general, MLIP expects that the Fund is most likely to trade successfully in
markets which exhibit strong and sustained price trends.  The current Advisor
group emphasizes technical and trend-following methods.  Consequently, one would
expect that in trendless, "choppy" markets the Fund would likely be
unprofitable, while in markets in which major price movements occur, the Fund
would have its best profit potential (although there could be no assurance that
the Fund would, in fact, trade profitably).  However, trend-followers not
infrequently will miss major price movements, and market corrections can result
in rapid and material losses (sometimes as much as 5% in a single day).
Although MLIP monitors market conditions and Advisor performance 

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
on an ongoing basis in overseeing the Fund's trading, MLIP does not attempt to
"market forecast" or to "match" trading styles with predicted market conditions.
Rather, MLIP concentrates on quantitative and qualitative analysis of
prospective Advisors, as well as on statistical studies of the historical
performance parameters of different Advisor combinations in selecting Advisors
and allocating and reallocating Fund assets among them.

         Because managed futures advisors' strategies are proprietary and
confidential and market movements unpredictable, selecting advisors to implement
speculative trading strategies involves considerable uncertainty.  Furthermore,
the concentration of the Fund's current Advisor portfolio, both in terms of the
number of managers retained and the common emphasis of their strategies on
technical and trend-following methods, increases the risk that unexpectedly bad
performance, turbulent market conditions or a combination of the two will result
in significant losses.

Liquidity
- ---------

         Most of the Partnerships assets are held as cash which, in turn, is
used to margin its futures positions and earn interest income and is withdrawn,
as necessary, to pay redemptions and fees.

     The futures contracts in which the Partnership trades may become illiquid
under certain market conditions.  Commodity exchanges limit fluctuations in
futures prices during a single day by regulations referred to as daily limits.
During a single day no trades may be executed at prices beyond the daily limit.
Once the price of a futures contract for a particular commodity has increased or
decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit, positions in the commodity can
generally neither be taken nor liquidated unless traders are willing to effect
trades at or within the limit.  Futures contracts have occasionally moved to the
daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading.  Such market
conditions could prevent the Partnership from promptly liquidating its futures
(including its options) positions.  There are no limitations on the daily price
moves in trading foreign currency forward contracts through banks, although
illiquidity may develop in the forward markets due to large spreads between bid
and ask prices quoted.  (Forward contracts are the bank version of currency
futures contracts and are not traded on exchanges.)

Capital Resources
- -----------------

         The Partnership does not have, nor does it expect to have, any capital
assets and has no material commitments for capital expenditures.  The
Partnership uses its assets to supply the necessary margin or premiums for, and
to pay any losses incurred in connection with, its trading activity and to pay
redemptions and fees.

         Inflation is not a significant factor in the Fund's profitability,
although inflationary cycles can give rise to the type of major price movements
which can have a materially favorable or adverse impact on the Fund's
performance.

                                 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

     There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Partnership or the
     General Partner is a party.

     In September 1996, JWH was named as a co-defendant in a class action
lawsuits brought in the California Superior Court, Los Angeles County and in the
New York Supreme Court, New York County. In November, JWH was named as a co-
defendant in a class action complaint filed in Superior Court of the State of
Delaware for Newcastle County that contained the same allegations as the New
York and California complaints. The actions, which seek unspecified damages,
purport to be brought on behalf of investors in certain Dean Witter, Discover &
Co. (Dean Witter) commodity pools, some of which are advised by JWH, and are
primarily directed at Dean Witters alleged fraudulent selling practices in
connection with the marketing of those pools. JWH is essentially alleged to have
aided and abetted or directly participated with Dean Witter in those practices.
JWH believes the allegations against it are without merit; it intends to contest
these allegations vigorously, and is convinced that it will be shown to have
acted properly and in the best interest of the investors.
