Annual Report

Dear Shareholder:
Some welcome news on the economic front inspired a stock market rally during the final quarter of 2001. Nonetheless, most major equity indexes still finished the year with negative returns. For investment-grade bonds, the situation was reversed. Their strong performance through the first three-quarters of 2001 was somewhat tamed late in the year as investors became more enthused about the prospects for growth in 2002.
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. A stock mutual fund, for instance, is already diversified, because it invests in many different companies. You can increase your diversification further by investing in a number of different stock funds, or in such other investment categories as bonds. 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.

Annual Report
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).

Cumulative total returns show the fund's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10 years. 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 Standard & Poor's 500SM Index - a market capitalization-weighted index of common stocks. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the growth funds average, which reflects the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group of 1,864 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges. Lipper has created additional comparison categories that group funds according to portfolio characteristics and capitalization, as well as by capitalization only. These averages are listed on page 5 of this report.(dagger)

Average annual total returns take the fund's cumulative return and show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant rate each year. (Note: Lipper calculates average annual total returns by annualizing each fund's total return, then taking an arithmetic average. This may produce a different figure than that obtained by averaging the cumulative total returns and annualizing the result.)
Annual Report
$10,000 Over 10 Years
$10,000 Over 10 Years: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity® Contrafund on December 31, 1991, and the current 3.00% sales charge was paid. As the chart shows, by December 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $36,970 - a 269.70% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Standard & Poor's 500 Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $33,762 - a 237.62% increase.
The $10,000 table and the fund's returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.
Understanding
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.
(dagger) The Lipper multi-cap core funds average reflects the performance (excluding sales charges) of mutual funds with similar portfolio characteristics and capitalization. The Lipper multi-cap supergroup average reflects the performance (excluding sales charges) of mutual funds with similar capitalization. As of December 31, 2001, the one year, five year, and 10 year cumulative total returns for the multi-cap core funds average were -10.89%, 61.21%, and 220.17%, respectively; and the one year, five year and 10 year average annual total returns were - -10.89%, 9.58%, and 11.93%, respectively. The one year, five year, and 10 year cumulative total returns for the multi-cap supergroup average were -12.98%, 61.56%, and 242.97%, respectively; and the one year, five year, and 10 year average annual total returns were -12.98%, 9.63%, and 12.25%, respectively.
Annual Report
Market Recap
Terrorism, war and an economic recession were just some of the negative influences that put downward pressure on stocks during 2001. But while most major equity indexes declined for the second year in a row, a stirring fourth-quarter rally demonstrated the amazing resiliency of the American financial system. Noteworthy events occurred early and often in 2001, beginning on the second trading day of the year when the Federal Reserve Board surprised the markets with a 0.50 percentage point cut in the fed funds target rate. This would be the first of an unprecedented number of rate reductions - 11 in all - made by the Fed in the calendar year. Stocks had a mixed response to the Fed's stimuli, fluctuating between steady declines and brief rallies throughout the first half of the year. By the tail end of the summer, however, it appeared the economy was taking a turn for the better. Unfortunately that optimism was obliterated on September 11 and in the two weeks following the devastating terrorist attacks. But with the help of the Fed's aggressive easing efforts, investors stepped back to the table in the fourth quarter with hopes of an economic rebound in early 2002. For the year overall, the large-cap weighted Standard & Poor's 500SM Index fell 11.89%, the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM declined 5.39%, and the tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite® Index dropped 20.82%.

An interview with Will Danoff, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Contrafund
Q. How did the fund perform, Will?
A. The fund was ahead of its benchmarks through most of 2001, but was too defensively positioned during the fourth quarter rally. For the 12 months that ended December 31, 2001, the fund returned -12.59%. This slightly lagged the Standard & Poor's 500 Index - which returned -11.89% - and beat the growth funds average, which returned - -16.76% according to Lipper Inc. As a fellow shareholder, I'm disappointed in these results and am working harder than ever to improve upon them.
Q. What factors shaped the fund's performance?
A. I anticipated the decline in corporate earnings in 2001 - particularly in the technology sector - and, as a result, had the fund positioned conservatively as the year began. The fund's heavy emphasis on consumer staples, financials and health care companies - as well as its low weighting in technology - helped it perform well through the first three quarters of the year. But aggressive monetary easing following the tragedy of September 11 caused the market to shift dramatically towards technology and the sector rallied sharply. With its low tech exposure, the fund gave up all of its relative gains from earlier in the year and finished just behind the S&P 500 but well ahead of the competition. The fund outperformed its peer group average during the period because many peers held higher weightings in technology.
Annual Report
Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued
Q. Why were you so cautious on technology?
A. I didn't think the rich valuations within the sector reflected the slower growth rates of most companies. Tech and telecommunications stocks traded at extremely high valuations throughout 1999 and 2000, and these high valuations attracted huge waves of new capital and capacity to the sector. So when demand fell during this period, profits collapsed. Stock prices fell in line with earnings, and some leading companies - including EMC and Sun Microsystems - fell by as much as 50%. In retrospect, my cautious approach - the fund's average exposure to tech stocks was around 8% during the period - was the right call as technology stocks as a group declined 30% in 2001. The fund did not own EMC or Sun at the end of the period.
Q. On average, fund's largest sector exposure during the period was to finance stocks. How did this group perform?
A. Finance stocks performed better than the overall market, as lower interest rates contributed to improved margins and an increase in refinancing activity. The fund's positions in Fannie Mae and Fifth Third Bancorp, for example, were solid performers during the period. Insurance stocks American International Group and Berkshire Hathaway also helped, as profits for both companies accelerated due to firmer industry pricing trends.
Q. What other areas of the market presented opportunities?
A. My concerns about technology stocks led me to work harder to find good growth stories outside that sector. As always, I looked for companies experiencing positive fundamental change and accelerating earnings growth. One example was defense company Lockheed Martin, which continued to improve its overall business profile by cutting costs, increasing free cash flow and selling under-performing, non-strategic businesses. Within the health group, the fund benefited from owning large positions in the two leading hospital chains, HCA and Tenet Healthcare, both of which prospered from favorable demographics and strong market positions. One of the fund's largest service-related positions - First Data - helped performance as the company's Western Union and credit card processing divisions grew profits nicely.
Q. Which stocks were disappointments?
A. I try to learn from my mistakes every year, and this year's lesson was that high valuations leave no room for earnings disappointments. The fund's investment in American Tower, for example, performed poorly as the stock was expensive and business suffered from the slowing economy. Other disappointments included drugmaker Schering-Plough - which ran into patent protection issues and manufacturing problems - and drugstore chain CVS, which declined due to a pharmacist shortage and the weak economy. The fund did not own Schering-Plough or CVS at the end of the period.
Q. What's your outlook going forward?
A. I'll continue to emphasize growth companies and turnaround situations outside of the technology sector. The aggressive monetary stimulus during the past year - the Federal Reserve Board cut interest rates 11 times - coupled with the absence of inflation, could result in a more stable market. Both corporate and consumer debt levels, however, are quite high, which could mute any recovery. My biggest concerns for 2002 are uncertain profit growth and high valuations. I would caution investors from assuming significant stock market appreciation this year.

Fund Facts
Goal: to increase the value of the fund's shares over the long term by investing in companies whose value is not fully recognized by the public
Fund number: 022
Trading symbol: FCNTX
Start date: May 17, 1967
Size: as of December 31, 2001, more than $32.1 billion
Manager: Will Danoff, since 1990; manager, VIP II: Contrafund, since 1995; Fidelity Select Retailing Portfolio, 1986-1989; joined Fidelity in 1986
3Will Danoff expands on his contrarian investing style:
"To me, being a contrarian investor means identifying companies growing faster - or slower - than the rest of the market. This has become more difficult as the investment business has become more and more competitive.
"I consistently look for positive fundamental change in my potential investments, including aggressive new management teams; exciting product lines; the sale or disposition of poorly performing businesses; improving working capital metrics; positive pricing dynamics; and/or success in new markets.
"One great example is the fund's large investment in Avon Products, which most market followers perceive to be a slow-growth, perennially underperforming consumer products company. Contrary to this image, Avon is actually in the early phases of a multi-year turnaround and revitalization.
"Under a dynamic new CEO, the company has increased and re-energized its sales force, cut costs, introduced new products, developed a new distribution channel and improved free cash flow. In response, and despite a tough worldwide economy, Avon's earnings growth accelerated in 2001 and the company expects a strong 2002.
"Turnaround situations such as Avon are how I expect to continue to provide superior returns without taking on excessive risk. With the help of Fidelity's extensive global research staff, I'm working hard every day to find more of these misperceived - but improving - stocks."

Annual Report
For the period ended December 31, 2001
1. Significant Accounting Policies.
Fidelity Contrafund (the fund) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:
Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Securities for which quotations are readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the closing bid price. Foreign securities are valued based on quotations from the principal market in which such securities are normally traded. If trading or events occurring in other markets after the close of the principal market in which foreign securities are traded, and before the close of business of the fund, are expected to materially affect the value of those securities, then they are valued at their fair value taking this trading or these events into account. Fair value is determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Securities (including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.
Foreign Currency. The fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Income Taxes. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for its fiscal year. The Schedule of Investments includes information regarding income taxes, if any, under the caption "Income Tax Information."
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income,which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the funds in the trust.
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan), non-interested Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the fund or are invested in a cross-section of other Fidelity funds. Deferred amounts remain in the fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions 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 are primarily due to differing treatments for litigation proceeds, foreign currency transactions, market discount, non-taxable dividends, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
As of December 31, 2001, accumulated loss on a tax basis was as follows:
Capital loss carryforward |
$ (2,382,209,000) |
The tax character of distributions paid during the year was as follows:

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Security Transactions. Security transactions 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 SEC), the fund, along with other affiliated entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (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 fund, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a custodian bank. 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, the fund's investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.
Restricted Securities. The fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.
3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Information regarding purchases and sales of securities is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.
Annual Report
Notes to Financial Statements - continued
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.
The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate of .30% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .28% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. In addition the management fee is subject to a performance adjustment (up to a maximum of ±.20% of the fund's average net assets over a 36 month performance period). The upward, or downward adjustment to the management fee is based on the fund's relative investment performance as compared to an appropriate benchmark index. For the period, the total annual management fee rate, including the performance adjustment, was .75% of the fund's average net assets.
Sales Load. For the period, Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, received sales charges of $1,686,000 on sales of shares of the fund all of which was retained.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual rate of .19% of average net assets.
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. FSC maintains the fund's accounting records and administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.
Central Funds. The fund may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $107,241,000 for the period.
Brokerage Commissions. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms are shown under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

Notes to Financial Statements - continued
5. Committed Line of Credit.
The fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.475 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
6. Security Lending.
The fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. The fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Cash collateral is invested in cash equivalents. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
7. Expense Reductions.
Certain security trades were directed to brokers who paid $16,469,000 of the fund's expenses. In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian and transfer agent, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the fund's custody and transfer agent expenses by $10,000 and $1,232,000, respectively.

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule 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 Contrafund at December 31, 2001, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fidelity Contrafund'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 of America which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2001 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
