Personal Strategy Funds

 .    Stocks posted moderate gains in a volatile environment; bonds struggled as
     rates rose.

 .    The Personal Strategy Income, Balanced, and Growth Funds outperformed their
     benchmarks for the six-month period, but modestly underperformed for the
     year.

 .    Our small-company stock holdings sparked returns, which were also aided by
     a rebound in large-company value stocks over the last three months.

 .    We expect bonds to perform well as interest rates level off, and our
     diversification should help weather the increasing volatility of world
     markets.

FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS

The Federal Reserve set the tone for both stocks and bonds over the past year.
Concerned that a red-hot U.S. economy could spark rising inflation, the Fed
raised rates six times, driving short-term bond prices lower and yields higher.
Stocks soared through much of the period, propelled by investors' enthusiasm for
technology, especially Internet-related companies. Tech stocks corrected sharply
in the spring, however, as rising rates and concerns about excessive valuations
prompted investors to move from the so-called New Economy stocks to companies
with stronger fundamentals and real earnings. Your funds' asset allocation
strategies and broad diversification helped them post solid returns during this
volatile period.


     MARKET ENVIRONMENT

          The Federal Reserve has raised short-term interest rates three times
          so far in 2000--including a half-percentage-point hike in
          May--continuing the tightening policy it began in June 1999. Although
          inflation itself remains subdued, the Fed is concerned about the
          economy's robust growth, accelerating producer prices, and low
          unemployment. By raising short-term rates, the Fed hopes to contain
          these inflationary pressures and lower the growth rate to a
          sustainable level. Although the Fed may raise rates again, the economy
          began to show signs of slowing as the period ended.

          The past few months have been marked by increased volatility in the
          equity markets. Investors appeared to ignore the Fed's actions for
          much of the past year, driving stocks to strong gains before stumbling
          in mid-March. New Economy stocks, especially those of Internet-related
          companies, were the primary beneficiaries of investor enthusiasm,
          while Old Economy blue chips languished. Because of their high
          valuations, technology-related stocks took the biggest fall when the
          markets finally succumbed to the Fed's strong medicine. The tech-heavy
          Nasdaq Composite Index, which gained 38% for the year, plunged 28%
          from March through May. After mid-March, investors

1
<PAGE>

          appeared to become more focused on company fundamentals, and the
          long-ignored large-cap value stocks rebounded. The S&P 500 Index rose
          4% during the final three months of the period and ended up 10% for
          the year ended May 31.

          Fixed-income investors had more to think about than short-term rate
          hikes. Because of the growing federal surplus, the Treasury Department
          announced plans to reduce government borrowing by cutting back on the
          sale of new Treasuries and buying back some outstanding debt.
          Investors rushed to buy long-term Treasuries, which drove prices
          higher and yields lower. The result was an inverted yield curve, as
          short-term Treasury yields rose above those on long-term issues.
          Normally, long-term bonds offer higher yields than shorter-term bonds
          to compensate for their higher risk. Holders of long-term Treasuries,
          including your funds, benefited from the higher prices. Overall, bonds
          were weak, as the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index rose about 1% for the
          past six months and 2% for the year.

PERFORMANCE AND STRATEGY REVIEW

         The funds' investment committee meets once a month to adjust the
         weightings of stocks, bonds, and money market securities within the
         appropriate ranges for each fund, based on market conditions and
         economic fundamentals. The committee made no significant changes to the
         overall allocation to stocks during the past six months, maintaining a
         small underweighting in the Balanced and Growth Funds and a slight
         overweighting in the Income Fund. We also continued to overweight bonds
         relative to each fund's neutral position.

          Although the overall allocations to stocks and bonds in the funds
          remained roughly the same, we made some changes within those
          allocations. To protect against rising interest rates, we shortened
          the duration of the bond portfolio by shifting some assets out of
          long-term

2
<PAGE>

          bonds and into investment-grade bonds, such as corporate and
          mortgage-backed securities. (Duration is a measure of a bond or bond
          fund's sensitivity to interest rates. For example, a fund with a
          duration of five years would fall or rise about 5% in price in
          response to a one-percentage-point rise or fall in rates.) At the end
          of May, we remained overweighted in investment-grade bonds, which
          generally performed well in an uncertain environment. Although
          high-yield (below investment-grade) bonds were a drag on performance,
          we maintained a slight bias toward this sector, which offered
          surprisingly attractive yields and valuations given the continued
          strength of the economy. Our bond holdings, especially the
          investment-grade exposure, helped buffer the portfolio from stock
          market gyrations late in the period.

          Last fall we shifted some assets away from domestic stocks into
          international stocks because we believed that foreign markets offered
          more attractive valuations, and we continue to favor international
          equities. Among domestic stocks, our heavier allocation to small-caps
          contributed significantly to fund returns over the past year. Both our
          growth and value holdings performed strongly during the past six
          months, although value stocks lagged for the period as a whole.

PERSONAL STRATEGY INCOME FUND

          This fund's investment goal is to generate the highest total return
          consistent with an emphasis on income first and capital appreciation
          second. The typical mix of securities for the fund is 40% stocks, 40%
          bonds, and 20% money market securities, although these figures can
          vary by as much as 10 percentage points above or below these levels.

          The fund posted modest returns for the 6- and 12-month periods ended
          May 31, but outperformed both the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index
          and the Combined Index Portfolio over the past six months. For the
          year, results topped the Lehman index but trailed the Combined index.

small-cap returns and a rebound in large-cap value stocks were key to six-month
results, while earlier weakness among large value stocks was the main reason for
mixed relative returns over the 12-month period. Our international holdings have
trailed domestic equities so far this year after outperforming them in 1999.
Although returns were positive for the year, our foreign stocks lagged the MSCI
EAFE (Europe, Australasia, Far East) Index.

On the fixed-income side, returns on higher-quality investments, particularly
longer-duration U.S. Treasuries, outpaced lower-quality bonds, which suffered
from poor liquidity. The strong performance in long-term bonds helped to offset
some of the poor returns among high-yield holdings. Overall, our fixed-income
returns lagged the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index over the last six months.

[GRAPH]

Stocks         41%

Bonds          47%

Based on net assets as of 5/31/00.

During the past six months, the fund's stock component remained unchanged at
41%, while the bond allocation dropped one percentage point to 47%, with 12%
allocated to money markets. Among equities, we continue to favor value over
growth, and remain convinced that foreign stocks offer attractive growth
possibilities relative to domestic stocks. The bond allocation marks an
overweighted position relative to the fund's neutral (40%) weighting, with a
bias toward investment-grade securities.

PERSONAL STRATEGY BALANCED FUND

          The objective of this fund is to provide the highest total return
          consistent with an emphasis on both income and capital appreciation.
          The typical asset mix is 60% stocks, 30% bonds, and 10% cash, with
          10-percentage-point variations permitted for each asset class. This
          asset allocation offers higher risk but also a higher potential return
          than the Income Fund.

*An unmanaged portfolio composed of 60% stocks (S&P 500), 30% bonds (Lehman

Bills).

          The fund delivered a 3.54% gain for the six months ended May 31,
          topping its benchmarks in a difficult environment, but its 5.68%
          one-year return trailed both the Combined Index Portfolio and the
          Merrill Lynch-Wilshire Capital Market Index. Our commitment to
          large-cap value stocks hampered returns for the 12-month period,
          although the performance of this sector improved significantly
          beginning in March. Our small-cap allocation, which contains both
          growth and value stocks, provided the major source of returns for the
          fund over the past six months. Our international holdings (18% of fund
          assets) performed well in 1999, but the weak euro held foreign stock
          returns somewhat in check during the last six months. The euro rallied
          late in May, however, and a larger-than-expected half-percentage-point
          interest rate hike by the European Central Bank in early June should
          further bolster the currency.

          The fund benefited from strong returns by two of its top holdings,
          Disney and Baker Hughes. Disney's stock rose from about $28 per share
          at the end of November to just over $42 on the strength of its
          top-rated ABC television network and its stake in such cable-TV
          channels as ESPN and A&E. Oil services firm Baker Hughes rallied from
          a low of under $20 per share in December to $36 per share at the end
          of May. The company is benefiting from a resurgence in spending by oil
          and gas companies and a restructuring that should improve its
          financial performance.

          Your fund seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in common

          permitted.

          Your fund rose 4.58% for the six months ended May 31 and 7.49% for the
          year, outperforming both the Combined Index Portfolio and the Merrill
          Lynch-Wilshire Capital Market Index for the six-month period, but
          trailing its benchmarks for the full 12 months. Despite recent
          volatility, small-company stocks were the primary contributors to fund
          performance over the past six months. Although large-cap value stocks
          hurt returns over the 12-month period, this sector rebounded to help
          six-month returns. Two of the fund's five largest holdings, Disney and
          Baker Hughes, also contributed significantly to fund results. (For a
          detailed look at these two companies, please read the section of this

          The fund's stock allocation was 77% of assets at the end of May,
          unchanged from six months earlier and three percentage points below
          the typical allocation. The balance of the fund's assets were in bonds
          and money market securities. The fund's slight tilt toward bonds
          helped lessen the effects of stock market volatility on performance
          during the period.


OUTLOOK

          U.S. economic growth appears to be moderating to a more sustainable
          level, although we anticipate further interest rate hikes through the
          end of the summer. Bonds should perform well as the Fed nears the end
          of its tightening cycle and interest rates begin to level off. We
          believe high-yield bonds are attractive given the continued strength
          of the U.S. economy, but liquidity remains a concern and weaker
          issuers could be hurt in an economic slowdown.

          Stocks continue to face challenges from rising short-term rates and
          valuation concerns, but we are encouraged by the strong performance of
          small-caps for much of the period and the rebound in large value
          stocks. We believe that small- and mid-cap stocks offer attractive
          long-term potential, but earnings growth remains the key to
          reestablishing outperformance in these sectors relative to large-caps.
          The increasing volatility in world equity markets and the rapid shifts
          in market leadership reinforce the advantages of the Personal Strategy
          Funds' broadly diversified approach.

          These charts show the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in
          each fund over the past 10 fiscal year periods or since inception (for
          funds lacking 10-year records). The result is compared with
          benchmarks, which may include a broad-based market index and a peer
          group average or index. Market indexes do not include expenses, which
          are deducted from fund returns as well as mutual fund averages and
          indexes.
