Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Spectrum Series
Monthly Report
July 2000
Dear Limited Partner:
The Net Asset Value per Unit for each of the six Morgan Stanley Dean Witter
Spectrum Funds as of July 31, 2000 was as follows:
Funds N.A.V. % change for month
Spectrum Commodity $ 7.39 -3.73%
Spectrum Currency $10.06 0.60%
Spectrum Global Balanced $15.27 -2.16%
Spectrum Select $19.76 -2.42%
Spectrum Strategic $11.74 3.69%
Spectrum Technical $13.10 -3.98%
In general, the performance disparity between the Funds in the Spectrum
Series is due to the portfolio structure and trading approaches unique to
each Fund. Spectrum Strategic, a fund managed by multiple trading advisors
who employ fundamental trading methodologies, recorded gains in the energy
markets from short positions in crude oil futures as oil prices fell.
Spectrum Currency, a fund that participates exclusively in the currency
markets, recorded gains from short positions in the Thai baht and Japanese
yen. Spectrum Technical, a technically-based multi-manager fund,
experienced difficulty across a number of markets, particularly in the
energy markets from long positions in crude oil and natural gas futures and
in the currency markets from long positions in the Swiss franc. Spectrum
Commodity, a fund that participates in the tangible commodity markets from
the long side, recorded losses primarily in the energy markets from long
positions in crude oil and natural gas futures, and in the agricultural
markets from long positions in corn and wheat futures. Spectrum Select,
the other technically-based multi-manager fund, recorded losses primarily
in the energy markets from long positions in crude oil and natural gas
futures. Spectrum Global Balanced, a balanced portfolio of stocks, bonds
and managed futures, experienced losses primarily in the global stock index
futures component from long positions in Nikkei Index futures and in the
energy markets from long positions in crude oil and natural gas futures.
Spectrum Commodity
The Fund decreased in value during July due primarily to losses recorded in
the energy markets from long futures positions in crude oil and its related
products as prices decreased amid growing conviction that Saudi Arabia will
follow through with a pledge to boost production. Additional losses were
experienced from long positions in natural gas futures as prices moved
lower as a result of declining cooling demand in key consumption areas and
an increase in supplies as reported by the American Gas Association. In
the agricultural markets, losses were experienced from long positions in
corn and wheat futures as prices declined on favorable U.S. crop weather
forecasts. A portion of these losses was offset by gains recorded in soft
commodities from long sugar futures positions as prices increased on
forecasts that the world surplus will shrink with smaller crops in 2000-
2001. Additional gains were recorded from long cotton futures positions as
prices moved higher amid fears that the dryness and heat in Texas would
slash the size of the U.S. crop. In the metals markets, gains were
produced from long positions in copper futures as prices increased due to
declines in copper supplies. Offsetting losses were recorded during mid-
month from long gold futures positions as gold prices fell after the Bank
of England announced the results of its latest gold auction, which had
concluded at a lower price than most dealers expected.
Spectrum Currency
Effective July 3, 2000, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Spectrum Currency L.P.
began trading. The Fund participates exclusively in the global currency
markets and utilizes John W. Henry & Company, Inc. and Sunrise Capital
Partners, LLC. These two trading advisors use technical trend-following
trading programs to participate in world currencies via the futures and
interbank markets.
<PAGE>
The Fund increased in value during July due primarily to gains recorded
later in the month from short positions in the Thai baht as its value
weakened versus the U.S. dollar. Gains were also recorded from short
positions in the Japanese yen as its value weakened relative to the U.S.
dollar due to rising Japanese unemployment data and declining Japanese
stock prices. Additional gains were recorded from short British pound
positions as the value of the pound weakened versus the U.S. dollar as wage
growth, a key factor watched by the Bank of England, slowed significantly
and expectations that UK interest rates will remain on hold for the
foreseeable future. A portion of these gains was offset by losses recorded
during mid-month from long positions in the euro and Swiss franc as their
values weakened versus the U.S. dollar amid speculation that further
European acquisitions of U.S. companies will increase demand for the U.S.
dollar. Additional losses were recorded later in the month from long
positions in the Australian dollar as its value weakened relative to the
U.S. dollar on reports of strong U.S. economic data and a poor Australian
trade balance of goods and services report.
Spectrum Global Balanced
The Fund decreased in value during July due primarily to losses recorded in
the global stock index futures component of the balanced portfolio from
long positions in Nikkei Index futures as Japanese stock prices declined
later in the month as major technology issues were hit hard by losses in
the U.S. NASDAQ Index. In the energy markets, losses were experienced from
long futures positions in crude oil and its related products as prices
decreased amid growing conviction that Saudi Arabia will follow through
with a pledge to boost production. Additional losses were experienced from
long positions in natural gas futures as prices declined as a result of
lower-than-normal cooling demand in key consumption areas and an increase
in supplies as reported by the American Gas Association. In the currency
markets, losses were incurred earlier in the month from short positions in
the Mexican peso as its value strengthened versus the U.S. dollar on
speculation of low U.S. inflation data and Mexican post-election
confidence. A portion of these losses was offset by gains recorded in the
agricultural markets from short positions in corn and soybean oil futures
as prices declined on favorable U.S. crop weather forecasts.
Spectrum Select
The Fund decreased in value during July due primarily to losses recorded in
the energy markets from long futures positions in crude oil and its related
products as prices decreased amid growing conviction that Saudi Arabia will
follow through with a pledge to boost production. Additional losses were
experienced from long positions in natural gas futures as prices declined
as a result of lower-than-normal cooling demand in key consumption areas
and an increase in supplies as reported by the American Gas Association.
In the global stock index futures markets, losses were incurred from long
positions in S&P 500 Index futures as U.S. equity prices declined as
renewed fears that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates has
exacerbated concerns that corporate earnings may be slowing. In the global
interest rate futures markets, losses were incurred from long positions in
Australian interest rate futures as prices decreased on renewed speculation
of an imminent interest rate hike by Australia's Federal Reserve Bank. A
portion of these losses was offset by gains recorded in the currency
markets from short positions in the Japanese yen as its value weakened
relative to the U.S. dollar due to rising Japanese unemployment data and
declining Japanese stock prices. In the metals markets, gains were
recorded from short gold futures positions as gold prices fell after the
Bank of England announced the results of its latest gold auction, which had
concluded at a lower price than most dealers expected. In the agricultural
markets, gains were recorded from short futures positions in corn, soybeans
and soybean related products as prices declined on favorable U.S. crop
weather forecasts. In soft commodities, gains were recorded from long
sugar futures positions as prices increased on forecasts that the world
surplus will shrink with smaller crops in 2000-2001.
Spectrum Strategic
The Fund increased in value during July due primarily to gains recorded in
the energy markets from short futures positions in crude oil and its
related products as prices decreased amid growing conviction that Saudi
Arabia will follow through with a pledge to boost production. In the soft
commodities markets, gains were recorded from long cotton futures positions
as prices moved higher amid fears that the dryness and heat in Texas would
slash the size of the U.S. crop. In the agricultural markets, gains were
recorded from short futures positions in corn and soybeans as prices
declined on favorable U.S. crop weather forecasts. A portion of these
gains was offset by losses recorded in the currency markets from long
positions in the euro and Swiss franc as the value of these European
currencies weakened during mid-month amid a combination of fresh
inflationary worries in the Eurozone and renewed doubts over the European
Central
Bank's handling of monetary policy. Additional losses were recorded later
in the month from long British pound positions as the value of the U.S.
dollar strengthened versus the pound on stronger-than-expected Gross
Domestic Product economic data. In the global interest rate futures
markets, losses were incurred from long positions in Australian interest
rate futures as prices decreased on renewed speculation of an imminent
interest rate hike by Australia's Federal Reserve Bank.
Spectrum Technical
The Fund decreased in value during July due primarily to losses recorded in
the energy markets from long futures positions in crude oil and its related
products as prices decreased amid growing conviction that Saudi Arabia will
follow through with a pledge to boost production. Additional losses were
experienced from long positions in natural gas futures as prices moved
lower as a result of declining cooling demand in key consumption areas and
an increase in supplies as reported by the American Gas Association. In
the currency markets, losses were experienced from long positions in the
euro and Swiss franc as the value of these European currencies weakened
during mid-month amid a combination of fresh inflationary worries in the
Eurozone and renewed doubts over the European Central Bank's handling of
monetary policy. Offsetting currency gains were recorded from short
positions in the Japanese yen as its value weakened relative to the U.S.
dollar due to rising Japanese unemployment data and declining Japanese
stock prices. In the global stock index futures markets, losses were
recorded from short-term price volatility in European stock index futures.
A portion of these losses was offset by gains recorded in the global
interest rate futures markets from long positions in Japanese interest rate
futures as prices increased aided by a decline in the Nikkei Index after
the Bank of Japan decision to maintain its current zero-interest rate
policy. In soft commodities, gains were recorded from long sugar futures
positions as prices increased on forecasts that the world surplus will
shrink with smaller crops in 2000-2001.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization - Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Spectrum Commodity
L.P. ("Spectrum Commodity," formerly Morgan Stanley Tangible
Asset Fund L.P.), Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Spectrum Currency
L.P. ("Spectrum Currency"), Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Spectrum
Global Balanced L.P. ("Spectrum Global Balanced"), Morgan
Stanley Dean Witter Spectrum Select L.P. ("Spectrum Select"),
Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Spectrum Strategic L.P. ("Spectrum
Strategic") and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Spectrum Technical
L.P. ("Spectrum Technical"), (individually, a "Partnership", or
collectively, the "Partnerships"), are limited partnerships
organized to engage primarily in the speculative trading of
futures, forwards, and options contracts on physical
commodities and other commodity interests, including, but not
limited to foreign currencies, financial instruments, metals,
energy and agricultural products (collectively, "futures
interests").
The general partner for each Partnership is Demeter Management
Corporation ("Demeter"). The non-clearing commodity broker for
the Partnerships is Dean Witter Reynolds, Inc. ("DWR") and an
unaffiliated clearing commodity broker, Carr Futures Inc.
("Carr"), provides clearing and execution services for Spectrum
Currency, Spectrum Global Balanced, Spectrum Select and
Spectrum Technical. The clearing commodity brokers for Spectrum
Commodity are Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("MS & Co.")
and Morgan Stanley & Co. International Limited ("MSIL").
Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Commodities Management, Inc.
("MSCM") is the trading advisor to Spectrum Commodity. For
Spectrum Strategic, Carr provides clearing and execution
services for Blenheim Investments Inc. ("Blenheim") and Allied
Irish Capital Management, Ltd. ("AICM"). MS & Co. and MSIL
provide clearing and execution services for Eclipse Capital
Management, Inc. ("Eclipse"). Demeter, DWR, MS& Co., MSCM and
MSIL are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Morgan Stanley Dean
Witter & Co.
Demeter is required to maintain a 1% minimum interest in the
equity of each Partnership and income (losses) are shared by
Demeter and the Limited Partners based upon their proportional
ownership interests.
Use of Estimates - The financial statements are prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which
require management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and
related disclosures. Management believes that the estimates
utilized in the preparation of the financial statements are
prudent and reasonable. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Revenue Recognition - Futures interests are open commitments
until settlement date. They are valued at market on a daily
basis and the resulting net change in unrealized gains and
losses is reflected in the changes in unrealized profits
(losses) on open contracts from one period to the next in the
statements of operations. Monthly, DWR pays interest income on
80% of the month's average daily "Net Assets" (as defined in
the limited partnership agreements) of
Spectrum Commodity, Spectrum Currency, Spectrum Select,
Spectrum Strategic and Spectrum Technical, and 100% in the case
of Spectrum Global Balanced. The interest rates used are equal
to a prevailing rate on U.S. Treasury bills. For purposes of
such interest payments, Net Assets do not include monies due
the Partnerships on futures interests, but not actually
received.
Net Income (Loss) per Unit - Net income (loss) per unit of
limited partnership interest ("Unit(s)") is computed using the
weighted average number of Units outstanding during the period.
