PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Concerned about the high valuations of technology stocks, investors
poured money into so-called old economy stocks during March, sparking
a rally in blue chips during which the Dow Jones Industrial Average
gained 499 points in a single day. Treasuries also benefited as a
haven from the technology sector, as the yield of the 10-year note -
which some consider the new bellwether Treasury issue - trended
downward throughout the month.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets
with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that
can help investors plan for their future needs.
First, investors are encouraged to take a long-term view of their
portfolios. If you can afford to leave your money invested through the
inevitable up and down cycles of the financial markets, you will
greatly reduce your vulnerability to any single decline. We know from
experience, for example, that stock prices have gone up over longer
periods of time, have significantly outperformed other types of
investments and have stayed ahead of inflation.
Second, you can further manage your investing risk through
diversification. Freedom Funds are already diversified because they
invest in stock, bond and money market funds with both domestic and
foreign exposures. 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, it's important to
remember that an investment in a money market fund is not insured or
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
government agency. Although money market funds seek to preserve the
value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose
money by investing in these types of funds.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a
certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or
quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing
so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising
market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this
strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or
protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you
lower the average cost of your purchases. Of course, you should
consider your financial ability to continue your purchases through
periods of low price levels before undertaking such a strategy.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-6666, or visit our
web site at www.fidelity.com. We are available 24 hours a day, seven
days a week to provide you the information you need to make the
investments that are right for you.

FIDELITY FREEDOM INCOME FUND(REGISTERED TRADEMARK)
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. Total return reflects the change in the value of an
investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income and
capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that
have grown in value). If Strategic Advisers had not reimbursed certain
fund expenses, the fund's total returns would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 PAST 1 YEAR LIFE OF FUND
FIDELITY FREEDOM INCOME 8.96% 38.39%
FIDELITY FREEDOM INCOME 7.43% 37.34%
COMPOSITE
Wilshire 5000 23.61% 117.24%
LB Aggregate Bond 1.87% 22.94%
LB 3 Month T-Bill 5.15% 19.41%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund
started on October 17, 1996. For example, if you had 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 Fidelity Freedom Income Composite Index, a
hypothetical combination of the following unmanaged indices: the
Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond
Index, and the Lehman Brothers 3 Month Treasury Bill Index according
to the composite benchmark weightings. These benchmarks include
reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Freedom Income Fund on October 17, 1996, when the
fund started. As the chart shows, by March 31, 2000, the value of the
investment would have grown to $13,839 - a 38.39% increase on the
initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers
Aggregate Bond Index, a market value-weighted index of
investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government,
corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with
maturities of one year or more, did over the same period. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000
investment would have grown to $12,294 - a 22.94% increase. With
dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000
investment in the Fidelity Freedom Income Composite Index would have
grown to $13,734 - a 37.34% increase.

PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
long-term growth and
short-term volatility. In turn, the
share price and return of a
fund that invests in stocks will
vary. That means if you sell
your shares during a market
downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out
the market's ups and downs,
you may have a gain.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was
invested in Fidelity Freedom 2010 Fund on October 17, 1996, when the
fund started. As the chart shows, by March 31, 2000, the value of the
investment would have grown to $18,258 - an 82.58% increase on the
initial investment. For comparison, look at how the S&P 500(registered
trademark) Index, a market capitalization-weighted index of common
stocks, did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if
any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to
$22,345 - a 123.45% increase. With dividends and capital gains, if
any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment in the Fidelity Freedom
2010 Composite Index would have grown to $17,386 - a 73.86% increase.

PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
long-term growth and
short-term volatility. In turn, the
share price and return of a
fund that invests in stocks will
vary. That means if you sell
your shares during a market
downturn, you might lose
money. But if you can ride out
the market's ups and downs,
you may have a gain.
FIDELITY FREEDOM 2020 FUND(REGISTERED TRADEMARK)
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. Total return reflects the change in the value of an
investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income and
capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that
have grown in value). If Strategic Advisers had not reimbursed certain
fund expenses, the fund's total returns would have been lower.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 PAST 1 YEAR LIFE OF FUND
FIDELITY FREEDOM 2020 26.74% 101.43%
FIDELITY FREEDOM 2020 COMPOSITE 18.38% 87.59%

MSCI EAFE 25.33% 57.81%
LB Aggregate Bond 1.87% 22.94%
ML High Yield Master II -0.98% 21.29%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage
terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund
started on October 17, 1996. For example, if you had 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 Fidelity Freedom 2020 Composite Index, a
hypothetical combination of the following unmanaged indices: the
Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, the Morgan Stanley Capital
International Europe, Australasia, Far East (MSCI EAFE) Index, the
Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, and the Merrill Lynch High Yield
Master II Index. The index weightings are adjusted twice a year to
reflect the fund's changing asset allocations. These benchmarks
include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGERS' OVERVIEW
MARKET RECAP
Despite several milestones in the
U.S. stock market during the
12-month period ending March 31,
2000, the overriding theme was
volatility. The period's top-performing
major equity index - the tech-heavy
NASDAQ - returned 86.25% as
investors flocked to stocks of
companies involved in the Internet,
wireless communications and
biotechnology. However, volatility
was the most extreme in March, as
the NASDAQ topped the 5000
mark before shedding much of
2000's year-to-date gains by the
month's end. Concurrently, investors
retreated to companies in the
blue-chip's benchmark - the Dow
Jones Industrial Average - which
gained 13.29% during the year.
The Dow gyrated in a range of
roughly 2000 points later in the
period after its inaugural passing of
the 11,000 level in November.
Meanwhile, the Standard & Poor's
500SM Index - an index of 500
commonly held large-cap stocks -
returned 17.94%. The period also
was characterized by the Federal
Reserve Board's concern that the
growth of the U. S. economy was
excessive, resulting in five
short-term interest rate hikes. The
threat of inflation proved
detrimental to bond prices as the
Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond
Index returned 1.87% during the
year. Investors preferred
higher-yielding securities early in
the period, as tightening yield
spreads resulted from narrowing
supply. In January, the Treasury
Department's decision to
re-purchase its outstanding debt
and reduce issuance led to a
shrinking supply of 30-year
Treasury bonds.

An interview with Scott Stewart (right) and Ren Cheng (left),
Portfolio Managers of Fidelity Freedom Funds
Q. HOW DID THE FUNDS PERFORM, SCOTT?
S.S. For the 12 months that ended March 31, 2000, the Income, 2000 and
2010 portfolios returned 8.96%, 13.81% and 20.32%, respectively. The
2020 and 2030 portfolios returned 26.74% and 29.64%, respectively,
during the same period. Each Freedom Fund compares its performance to
a composite benchmark, which comprises various indexes and reflects
the fund's target allocation mix. During the past 12 months, the
composite benchmarks for the Income, 2000 and 2010 portfolios returned
7.43%, 10.42%, and 14.51%, respectively. The composite benchmarks for
the 2020 and 2030 portfolios returned 18.38% and 19.97%, respectively,
during the same period.
Q. TURNING TO YOU REN, WHAT FACTORS HELPED THE FUNDS OUTPERFORM THEIR
BENCHMARKS?
R.C. Discipline and fundamental research. The portfolios are designed
for investors to achieve strong returns by taking on age-appropriate
risk in a diversified portfolio of investments. Within this tightly
monitored, risk-controlled structure, I try to let the strength of
Fidelity's fundamental research and stock picking ability filter
through in the underlying funds. During the period, it worked quite
well. As the equity market gyrated, the Freedom Funds were able to
maintain a well-diversified structure that allowed them to avoid the
extremes of the market during the past year and benefit consistently
from Fidelity's research capabilities.
Q. DID THE MARKET VOLATILITY OF THE PERIOD FORCE YOU TO RE-BALANCE THE
ASSET MIXES OF THE FUNDS MORE THAN NORMAL?
R.C. I re-balanced the portfolios a little more frequently during the
extreme equity market fluctuations. By the very nature of the funds'
investment discipline, when market appreciation or depreciation alters
the allocation of a specific asset category more than 1% above or
below its target, the manager must re-position the fund. Under this
design, the Freedom Funds buy more of the underlying portfolios when a
category allocation falls below the target mix and sell their
investments when market appreciation raises an asset class above the
specific target. Thus, the funds are always buying low and selling
high. Owning Freedom Funds is very much like running a marathon - a
financial marathon. Going into the race, you need to have a
predetermined structured plan and the discipline to stay with it.
Q. WHICH INVESTMENT CATEGORIES PERFORMED WELL? WHICH UNDERPERFORMED?
R.C. For the majority of the period, all of the underlying Fidelity
domestic equity portfolios in which the Freedom Funds invest performed
well, except for the more value-oriented funds such as Equity Income.
A market environment that favored growth-oriented stocks fueled the
strong performance of Growth Company and OTC Portfolio, both of which
were overweighted in technology stocks relative to their indexes.
However, the market turned in favor of industrial stocks during the
last month of the period as investors began to take profits in the
high-flying technology sector. During this correction in technology,
the fund benefited from the performances of its underlying value fund
holdings.
Q. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK, REN?
R.C. One thing I'm sure of is that the current level of market
volatility is not going away - it's likely going to get worse. No
matter how you measure volatility, we are at a much higher level than
in the past. I attribute much of this increase in volatility to
improvements in technology, which have in turn increased the speed at
which information flows. What's more, there are more investors
entering the market today than ever before, both experienced and
inexperienced. Under these conditions, risk control becomes more and
more important. Human beings, being the way we are, tend to get
emotionally involved when the market goes to extremes. If you don't
have discipline, you tend to make inappropriate decisions at the worst
possible time. In terms of the funds' long-term strategy, we'll
gradually re-allocate each Freedom Fund's target investment mix during
the coming months. The table below illustrates the target mix we'd
like to achieve for each fund by the next time we address our
shareholders on September 30, 2000.

(checkmark)FUND FACTS
GOAL: The Income Fund seeks
high current income and, as
a secondary objective,
capital appreciation. The
2000, 2010, 2020 and
2030 funds each seek high
total return. Each fund seeks
to achieve its goal by
investing in a combination of
underlying Fidelity equity,
fixed-income and money
market funds.

REN CHENG ON THE
NEW ECONOMY VS. THE OLD
ECONOMY:
"My long-term view is that the new
economy `technology' companies
and the old economy `industrial'
companies must coexist with one
another. Without the old economy
companies, to whom do the new
economy companies sell their
products? The power of the new
economy is that it helps the old
economy modernize into the 21st
century. Look at how fast the
business-to-business Internet
network is developing. It's
fundamentally revolutionizing the
entire marketplace - from
Mom-and-Pop shops to
well-established firms like
General Motors.
"The effect of this new
business-to-business cycle is that
it takes out the middle layer of the
traditional distribution channel
- - wholesalers. It's more direct,
more cost-efficient and more
client-oriented. What's more, the
whole Internet revolution is very
deflationary, bringing prices
down. Finally, this new
marketplace is one reason why I
think the U.S. gross domestic
product (GDP) can grow by 7.3%
with almost no inflation. That can't
be achieved through the
traditional structure of the old
economy."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended March 31, 2000
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Freedom Income Fund, Freedom 2000 Fund, Freedom 2010 Fund, Freedom
2020 Fund, and Freedom 2030 Fund (the funds) are funds of Fidelity
Aberdeen Street Trust (the trust). The trust is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Delaware business trust. Each fund
is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The funds
primarily invest in a combination of other Fidelity equity, fixed
income, and money market funds (the Underlying Funds) managed by
Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR). The financial statements
have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles which require management to make certain estimates and
assumptions at the date of the financial statements. The following
summarizes the significant accounting policies of the funds:
SECURITY VALUATION. Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at
the closing net asset value per share of each Underlying Fund on the
day of valuation. Short-term securities maturing within sixty days of
their purchase date are valued either at amortized cost or original
cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to
income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of
its taxable income for the fiscal year. The schedules of investments
include information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income
Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Income and capital gain distributions from the
Underlying Funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is accrued as earned.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a
fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned
between the funds in the trust. Expenses included in the accompanying
financial statements reflect the expenses of each fund and do not
include any expenses associated with the Underlying Funds.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions from net investment
income to shareholders of the Freedom Income Fund are paid monthly,
while distributions from capital gains, if any, are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions to
shareholders of the other Freedom Funds are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences, which may result in
distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing
treatments for the short-term gain distributions from the Underlying
Funds and losses deferred due to wash sales.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.
Undistributed net investment income and
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - CONTINUED
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may
include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in
a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal
year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions, normally shares of the
Underlying Funds, are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses
on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the funds, 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 for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency
obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The underlying U.S. Treasury, Federal Agency,
or other obligations found to be satisfactory by FMR are transferred
to an account of the funds, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a bank
custodian. The securities are marked-to-market daily and maintained at
a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase
agreement (including accrued interest). FMR is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Information regarding purchases and redemptions of the Underlying Fund
shares is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees of Fidelity Aberdeen Street Trust and the Shareholders
of Fidelity Freedom Income Fund, Fidelity Freedom 2000 Fund, Fidelity
Freedom 2010 Fund, Fidelity Freedom 2020 Fund, and Fidelity Freedom
2030 Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of
operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Fidelity Freedom Income Fund, Fidelity Freedom 2000 Fund, Fidelity
Freedom 2010 Fund, Fidelity Freedom 2020 Fund, and Fidelity Freedom
2030 Fund (funds of Fidelity Aberdeen Street Trust) at March 31, 2000,
and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets
and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter
referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the
Fidelity Aberdeen Street Trust's management; our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation
of securities at March 31, 2000 by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.
