February 1, 1999

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to report that the J.P. Morgan Diversified Fund earned a solid 
6.32% for the six months ended December 31, 1998. The fund surpassed its 
peers, as measured by the Lipper Balanced Fund Average, which returned 4.17%. 
The fund's benchmark* returned 7.06%

The fund's net asset value per share increased from $15.06 at June 30, 1998, 
to $15.51 on December 31, 1998. The fund made distributions during the period 
of approximately $0.18 per share from ordinary income, approximately $0.04 
per share from short-term capital gains, and approximately $0.26 per share 
from long-term capital gains. In addition, the fund's net assets increased 
from approximately $227.1 million on June 30, 1998, to approximately $241.1 
million at the end of the period under review. The net assets of The 
Diversified Portfolio, in which the fund invests, totaled approximately 
$603.5 million on December 31, 1998.

FUND PERFORMANCE 

EXAMINING PERFORMANCE

One way to look at performance is to review a fund's average annual total 
return. This figure takes the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and shows 
what would have happened if the fund had achieved that return by performing 
at a constant rate each year. Average annual total returns represent the 
average yearly change of a fund's value over various time periods, typically 
one, five, or ten years (or since inception). Total returns for periods of 
less than one year are not annualized and provide a picture of how a fund 
has performed over the short term.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER Q&A

[PHOTO]

Following is an interview with JOHN M. DEVLIN, JR., who has been a member of 
the portfolio management team for The Diversified Portfolio since December 
of 1993. John joined J.P. Morgan in 1986. At Morgan, he was on special 
assignment in the Frankfurt office and, prior to that, spent six years on the 
fixed-income trading desk as a mortgage and corporate specialist. Before 
joining Morgan, John was a pension fund manager and Treasury manager during 
his 12 years with U.S. Steel. He earned a degree in Finance from Georgetown 
in 1967, and an M.B.A. from Pace University in 1976. He was an adjunct 
professor of Finance at Pace University for 10 years. This interview took 
place on January 15, 1999, and reflects John's views on that date.

HOW DID THE MARKETS IN WHICH THE PORTFOLIO INVESTS PERFORM DURING THE SIX 
MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998?

JD: The period under review saw continued turmoil in the emerging markets, 
first in Southeast Asia, followed by Russia, and finally in Brazil. In spite 
of these challenges, U.S. large-cap stocks continued to move substantially 
higher. The S&P 500 Index rose 9.23% for the six months. Europe suffered more 
from the upheaval, returning 1.77% in U.S. dollar terms. Volatile Japan, with 
its lagging economy, declined 12.19%.

U.S. fixed income, fueled by a flight to quality and budget surpluses, rose a 
solid 4.57% for the six months. Small-cap stocks had a tougher time of it, 
losing 7.13% for the period.

The fourth quarter propelled the stronger indices to record levels, only 
after the market corrections we witnessed in the third quarter were reversed 
as central banks in Europe and the U.S. eased interest rates. The market 
ignored other fourth quarter shocks like the Iraqi bombing and the impeachment 
process, as well.

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM DURING THE SIX MONTHS UNDER REVIEW?

JD: I am pleased to report that the fund continued to surpass its peers for 
the six months ended December 31, 1998. The fund returned 6.32% for the 
period, versus 4.17% for the Lipper Balanced Fund Average. For the full year, 
the fund was up 18.29%, far outpacing the 13.48% returned by the Lipper 
Average. The fund's performance has placed it in the top quartile among all 
its peers for the year and for the past five years.

This significant achievement is a direct result of bringing together all of 
the good things we do at Morgan. The fund's superior performance is driven by 
the fundamental research of our equity analysts. Portfolio construction -- 
picking the right stocks -- adds to this performance. Add to this the fund's 
flexibility to diversify into small-cap, fixed income, and international 
stocks, and the result is an overall strategy that reduced risk, critically 
important during these volatile times, and resulted in consistently positive 
returns. As a matter of fact, the five year annualized return for the fund 
was 15.12%, versus the 13.84% returned by the Lipper Balanced Fund Average.

WHICH SECURITY SELECTION AND ASSET ALLOCATION DECISIONS CONTRIBUTED TO THE 
PORTFOLIO'S PERFORMANCE?

JD: As I mentioned earlier, the research behind our large-cap equity position 
has consistently resulted in



                                                                             3
<PAGE>

returns above those of the S&P 500. For the six months, our large-cap stocks 
returned 10.23%, 1.0% above the S&P 500 return of 9.23%. Our holdings in Tyco 
International, Cisco Systems, Hewlett-Packard, Time Warner, Chrysler, and 
American International Group all added significantly to our returns. Although 
the small-cap market suffered, our holdings in DeKalb Genetics, Colt Telecom, 
and D.R. Horton added value.

Interest rates fell throughout the period, fueled by the flight to quality by 
investors and an accommodative Federal Reserve, which lowered rates three 
times in the six months. Long bond yields fell from 5.62% to 5.10% during the 
period. This development created opportunities and additional returns for the 
portfolio, as we were positioned further out on the yield curve. Spreads 
widened between corporate bonds and mortgage securities relative to the 
Treasury curve, resulting in some give-up to the overall fixed income 
returns. However, we continue to view these wider spreads as an opportunity.

WHICH SECURITY SELECTION AND ASSET ALLOCATION DECISIONS DETRACTED FROM THE 
PORTFOLIO'S PERFORMANCE?

JD: Large-cap stocks are at record levels, as 1998 marked the fourth straight 
year that saw returns greater than 20%. In an effort to reduce risk in the 
portfolio, we underweighted by 4% our allocation to large caps, while 
overweighting by 1% our allocation to small caps. We also overweighted 
international equities by 1.5%. This decision detracted from our overall 
performance, but was in line with our fundamental process of investing in 
asset classes where we see relative value and underweighting those that we 
believe exhibit risk. Our underweight to large-cap stocks continues.

HOW WILL EMU AFFECT THE PORTFOLIO?

JD: While EMU occurred after the fund's reporting period, we have already 
adjusted our perspective to better position the fund for this event. More 
recently, and going forward, our portfolio construction within continental 
Europe will have more of a focus on identifying the most attractive stocks 
within an industry across the region, rather than within each individual 
country. With 11 of the 15 European Union countries having adopted the euro, 
market correlation has risen and in all likelihood it will continue to do so.

Thus, the ability to add value in continental Europe through country 
allocation has declined and we expect our fundamental research driven process 
to become even more important going forward.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE COMING MONTHS?

JD: Over the near term, particularly in the first quarter of 1999, we 
anticipate a continuation of the market events that we saw in 1998. Although 
valuations in U.S. and European equity markets are stretched, there is plenty 
of liquidity from mutual fund flows and 401(k) programs that will be seeking 
a home. Additionally, the uncertainty associated with the impact of the Euro, 
the year 2000 computer problem, and possible further financial troubles in 
Brazil and Japan support the likelihood that investors will shun riskier 
asset classes in favor of the large, liquid names that have found favor for 
the past several years.

We believe that in the tug of war between valuation and liquidity, equity 
markets will remain buoyant. We remain concerned about slowing economic 
growth globally, as well as pressure on corporate earnings. The U.S. economy, 
which we expect to slow from its 1998 pace, may yet remain the strongest of 
all economies in 1999.

J.P. MORGAN DIVERSIFIED FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
DECEMBER 31, 1998
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
J.P. Morgan Diversified Fund (the "fund") is a separate series of J.P. Morgan
Funds, a Massachusetts business trust (the "trust"), which was organized on
November 4, 1992. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The
fund commenced operations on December 15, 1993.
 
The fund invests all of its investable assets in The Diversified Portfolio (the
"portfolio"), a no-load diversified, open-end management investment company
having the same investment objective as the fund. The value of such investment
included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects the fund's
proportionate interest in the net assets of the portfolio (40% at December 31,
1998). The performance of the fund is directly affected by the performance of
the portfolio. The financial statements of the portfolio, including the Schedule
of Investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in
conjunction with the fund's financial statements.
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual amounts could differ from
those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting
policies of the fund:
 
   a) Valuation of securities by the portfolio is discussed in Note 1a of the
      portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in
      this report.
 
   b) The fund records its share of net investment income, realized and
      unrealized gain and loss and adjusts its investment in the portfolio each
      day. All the net investment income and realized and unrealized gain and
      loss of the portfolio is allocated pro rata among the fund and other
      investors in the portfolio at the time of such determination.
 
   c) Substantially all the fund's net investment income is declared and paid as
      dividends quarterly. Distributions to shareholders of net realized capital
      gains, if any, are declared and paid annually.
 
   d) The fund incurred organization expenses in the amount of $34,724 which
      were deferred and were amortized on a straight-line basis over period not
      to exceed five years beginning with the commencement of operations of the
      fund.
 
   e) The fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes
      and intends to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of
      1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to
      distribute substantially all of its income, including net realized capital
      gains, if any, within the prescribed time periods. Accordingly, no
      provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
 
   f) Expenses incurred by the trust with respect to any two or more funds in
      the trust are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each fund in
      the trust, except where allocations of direct expenses to each fund can
      otherwise be made fairly. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are
      charged to that fund.

 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
   a) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has retained Funds Distributor, Inc.
      ("FDI"), a registered broker-dealer, to serve as co-administrator and
      distributor for the fund. Under a Co-Administration Agreement between FDI
      and the trust on behalf of the fund, FDI provides administrative services
      necessary for the operations of the fund, furnishes office space and
      facilities required for conducting the business of the fund and pays the
      compensation of the fund's officers affiliated with FDI. The fund has
      agreed to pay FDI fees equal to its allocable share of an annual
      complex-wide charge of $425,000 plus FDI's out-of-pocket expenses. The
      amount allocable to the fund is based on the ratio of the fund's net
      assets to the aggregate net assets of the trust and certain other
      investment companies subject to similar agreements with FDI. For the six
      months ended December 31, 1998, the fee for these services amounted to
      $2,248.
 
   b) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has an Administrative Services Agreement
      (the "Services Agreement") with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York
      ("Morgan"), a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated
      ("J.P. Morgan"), under which Morgan is responsible for certain aspects of
      the administration and operation of the fund. Under the Services
      Agreement, the fund has agreed to pay Morgan a fee equal to its allocable
      share of an annual complex-wide charge. This charge is calculated based on
      the aggregate average daily net assets of the portfolio and other
      portfolios in which the trust and the J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds
      invest (the "master portfolios") and J.P. Morgan Series Trust in
      accordance with the following annual schedule: 0.09% on the first $7
      billion of their aggregate average daily net assets and 0.04% of their
      aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $7 billion less the
      complex-wide fees payable to FDI. The portion of this charge payable by
      the fund is determined by the proportionate share that its net assets bear
      to the net assets of the trust, the master portfolios, other investors in
      the master portfolios for which Morgan provides similar services, and J.P.
      Morgan Series Trust. For the six months ended December 31, 1998, the fee
      for these services amounted to $32,646.
 
      In addition, J.P. Morgan has agreed to reimburse the fund to the extent
      necessary to maintain the total operating expenses of the fund, including
      the expenses allocated to the fund from the portfolio, at no more than
      0.98% of the average daily net assets of the fund. This reimbursement
      arrangement can be changed or terminated at any time at the option of J.P.
      Morgan. For the six months ended December 31, 1998, J.P. Morgan has agreed
      to reimburse the fund $6,326 for expenses under this agreement.
 
   c) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has a Shareholder Servicing Agreement
      with Morgan to provide account administration and personal account
      maintenance service to fund shareholders. The agreement provides for the
      fund to pay Morgan a fee for these services which is computed daily and
      paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of
      the fund. For the six months ended December 31, 1998, the fee for these
      services amounted to $290,536.
 
      Morgan, Charles Schwab & Co. ("Schwab") and the trust are parties to
      separate services and operating agreements (the "Schwab Agreements")
      whereby Schwab makes fund shares available to customers of investment
      advisors and other financial intermediaries who are Schwab's clients. The
      fund is not responsible for payments to Schwab under the Schwab
      Agreements; however, in the event the services
 
                                                                              13

      agreement with Schwab is terminated for reasons other than a breach by
      Schwab and the relationship between the trust and Morgan is terminated,
      the fund would be responsible for the ongoing payments to Schwab with
      respect to pre-termination shares.
 
   d) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has a Fund Services Agreement with
      Pierpont Group, Inc. ("Group") to assist the trustees in exercising their

THE DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
DECEMBER 31, 1998

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The Diversified Portfolio (the "portfolio") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as a no-load diversified, open-end
management investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of
the State of New York on January 29, 1993. The portfolio commenced operations on
July 8, 1993. The portfolio's investment objective is to provide a high total
return from a diversified portfolio of equity and fixed income securities. The
Portfolio may invest in international markets. The Declaration of Trust permits
the trustees to issue an unlimited number of beneficial interests in the
portfolio.
 
Investments in emerging and international markets may involve certain
considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United
States. Future economic and political developments in emerging market and
foreign countries could adversely affect the liquidity or value, or both, of
such securities in which the portfolio is invested. The ability of the issuers
of debt, asset-backed and mortgage securities held by the portfolio to meet
their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments in a
specific industry or region. The value of asset-backed and mortgage securities
can be significantly affected by changes in interest rates or rapid principal
repayments including pre-payments.
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual amounts could differ from
those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting
policies of the portfolio:
 
   a) The value of each security for which readily available market quotations
      exist is based on a decision as to the broadest and most representative
      market for such security. The value of such security will be based either
      on the last sale price on a national securities exchange or, in the
      absence of recorded sales, at the average of readily available closing bid
      and asked prices on such exchanges. Securities listed on a foreign
      exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price available before the
      time when net assets are valued. Unlisted securities are valued at the
      average of the quoted bid and asked prices in the over-the-counter market.
      Securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily
      available are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures
      established by the portfolio's trustees. Such procedures include the use
      of independent pricing services, which use prices based upon yields or
      prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type;
      indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. All
      short-term portfolio securities with a remaining maturity of less than 60
      days are valued by the amortized cost method.
 
      Trading in securities on most foreign exchanges and over-the-counter
      markets is normally completed before the close of the domestic market and
      may also take place on days on which the domestic market is closed. If
      events materially affecting the value of foreign securities occur between
      the time when the exchange on which they are traded closes and the time
      when the portfolio's net assets are calculated, such securities will be
      valued at fair value in accordance with procedures established by and
      under the general supervision of the portfolio's trustees.
 
      The portfolio's custodian or designated subcustodians, as the case may be
      under tri-party repurchase agreements, takes possession of the collateral
      pledged for investments in repurchase agreements on

      behalf of the portfolio. It is the policy of the portfolio to value the
      underlying collateral daily on a mark-to-market basis to determine that
      the value, including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase
      price plus accrued interest. In the event of default of the obligation to
      repurchase, the portfolio has the right to liquidate the collateral and
      apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Under certain
      circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to
      the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds
      may be subject to legal proceedings.
 
   b) The books and records of the portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollars. The
      market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities and
      foreign currency contracts are translated at the prevailing exchange rates
      at the end of the period. Purchases, sales, income and expense are
      translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of
      such transactions. Translation gains and losses resulting from changes in
      exchange rates during the reporting period and gains and losses realized
      upon settlement of foreign currency transactions are reported in the
      Statement of Operations. Although the net assets of the portfolio are
      presented at the exchange rates and market values prevailing at the end of
      the period, the portfolio does not isolate the portion of the results of
      operations arising as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates from
      the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities
      during the period.
 
   c) Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividend
      income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or as of the time that the
      relevant ex-dividend date and amount becomes known. Interest income, which
      includes the amortization of premiums and discounts, if any, is recorded
      on an accrual basis. For financial and tax reporting purposes, realized
      gains and losses are determined on the basis of specific lot
      identification.
 
   d) The portfolio incurred organization expenses in the amount of $5,000 which
      were deferred and were amortized on a straight-line basis over a period
      not to exceed five years beginning with the commencement of operations of
      the fund.
 
   e) The portfolio may enter into forward and spot foreign currency contracts
      to protect securities and related receivables and payables against
      fluctuations in future foreign currency rates and to enhance returns. A
      forward contract is an agreement to buy or sell currencies of different
      countries on a specified future date at a specified rate. Risks associated
      with such contracts include the movement in the value of the foreign
      currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the counterparty
      to perform.
 
      The market value of the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency
      exchange rates. Contracts are valued daily at the current foreign exchange
      rates and the change in the market value is recorded by the portfolio as
      unrealized appreciation or depreciation of forward and spot foreign
      currency contract translations. At December 31, 1998, the portfolio had
      open forward currency contracts as follows:
 
                                                                              45

      securities index. The price at which the purchase and sale will take place
      is fixed when the portfolio enters into the contract. Upon entering into
      such a contract, the portfolio is required to pledge to the broker an
      amount of cash and/or liquid securities equal to the minimum "initial
      margin" requirements of the exchange. Pursuant to the contract, the
      portfolio agrees to receive from, or pay to, the broker an amount of cash
      equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts
      or payments are known as "variation margin" and are recorded by the
      portfolio as unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the
      portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between
      the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the
      time when it was closed. The portfolio invests in futures contracts for
      the purpose of hedging its existing portfolio securities, or securities
      the portfolio intends to purchase, against fluctuations in value caused by
      changes in prevailing market interest rates or securities movements. The
      use of futures transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in
      movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates and the
      underlying hedged assets, and the possible inability of counterparties to
      meet the terms of their contracts. At December 31, 1998, the portfolio had
      open futures contracts as follows:

   g) The portfolio intends to be treated as a partnership for federal income
      tax purposes. As such, each investor in the portfolio will be taxed on its
      share of the portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended
      that the portfolio's assets will be managed in such a way that an investor
      in the portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M
      of the Internal Revenue Code. The portfolio may

      be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests. Such taxes
      are generally based on income and/or capital gains earned. Taxes are
      accrued and applied to net investment income, net realized capital gains
      and unrealized appreciation, as applicable, as to the income and/or
      capital gains are earned.
 
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
   a) Prior to October 28, 1998, the portfolio had an Investment Advisory
      Agreement with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York ("Morgan"), a
      wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated ("J.P. Morgan").
      Under the terms of the agreement, the portfolio paid Morgan at an annual
      rate of 0.55% of the portfolio's average daily net assets. Effective
      October 28, 1998, the portfolio's Investment Advisor is J.P. Morgan
      Investment Management Inc. ("JPMIM"), an affiliate of Morgan and a wholly
      owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan, and the terms of the agreement will
      remain the same. For the six months ended December 31, 1998, such fees
      amounted to $1,554,481.
 
   b) The portfolio has retained Funds Distributor, Inc. ("FDI"), a registered
      broker-dealer, to serve as the co-administrator and exclusive placement
      agent. Under a Co-Administration Agreement between FDI and the portfolio,
      FDI provides administrative services necessary for the operations of the
      portfolio, furnishes office space and facilities required for conducting
      the business of the portfolio and pays the compensation of the portfolio's
      officers affiliated with FDI. The portfolio has agreed to pay FDI fees
      equal to its allocable share of an annual complex-wide charge of $425,000
      plus FDI's out-of-pocket expenses. The amount allocable to the portfolio
      is based on the ratio of the portfolio's net assets to the aggregate net
      assets of the portfolio and certain other investment companies subject to
      similar agreements with FDI. For the six months ended December 31, 1998,
      the fee for these services amounted to $4,799.
 
   c) The portfolio has an Administrative Services Agreement (the "Services
      Agreement") with Morgan under which Morgan is responsible for certain
      aspects of the administration and operation of the portfolio. Under the
      Services Agreement, the portfolio has agreed to pay Morgan a fee equal to
      its allocable share of an annual complex-wide charge. This charge is
      calculated based on the aggregate average daily net assets of the
      portfolio and the other portfolios for which JPMIM acts as investment
      advisor (the "master portfolios") and J.P. Morgan Series Trust in
      accordance with the following annual schedule: 0.09% on the first $7
      billion of their aggregate average daily net assets and 0.04% of their
      aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $7 billion less the
      complex-wide fees payable to FDI. The portion of this charge payable by
      the portfolio is determined by the proportionate share that its net assets
      bear to the net assets of the master portfolios, other investors in the
      master portfolios for which Morgan provides similar services, and J.P.
      Morgan Series Trust. For the six months ended December 31, 1998, the fee
      for these services amounted to $79,377.
 
      In addition, J.P. Morgan has agreed to reimburse the portfolio to the
      extent necessary to maintain the total operating expenses of the portfolio
      at no more than 0.65% of the average daily net assets of the fund. This
      reimbursement arrangement can be terminated at any time at the option of
      J.P. Morgan. For the six months ended December 31, 1998, J.P. Morgan has
      agreed to reimburse the portfolio $119,060 for expenses under this
      agreement.

   d) The portfolio has a Fund Services Agreement with Pierpont Group, Inc.
      ("Group") to assist the trustees in exercising their overall supervisory
      responsibilities for the portfolio's affairs. The trustees of the
      portfolio represent all the existing shareholders of Group. The
      portfolio's allocated portion of Group's costs in performing its services
      amounted to $7,487 for the six months ended December 31, 1998.
 
   e) An aggregate annual fee of $75,000 is paid to each trustee for serving as
      a trustee of the trust, the J.P. Morgan Funds, the J.P. Morgan
      Institutional Funds, the master portfolios and J.P. Morgan Series Trust.
      The Trustees' Fees and Expenses shown in the financial statements
      represents the portfolio's allocated portion of the total fees and
      expenses. The portfolio's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer also serves
      as Chairman of Group and receives compensation and employee benefits from
      Group in his role as Group's Chairman. The allocated portion of such
      compensation and benefits included in the Fund Services Fee shown in the
      financial statements was $1,600.
