Fund Summary

Fund/Class:
Fidelity^® Series Mega Cap Fund/Fidelity Series Mega Cap Fund

Investment Objective

The fund seeks high total return.

Fee Table

The following table describes the fees and expenses that may be incurred when you buy and hold shares of the fund.

Shareholder fees
(fees paid directly from your investment)

Shareholder Fees (USD $)	Series Fidelity Series Mega Cap Fund Class: Fidelity Series Mega Cap Fund
Shareholder fees (fees paid directly from your investment)	none

Annual class operating expenses
(expenses that you pay each year as a % of the value of your investment)

Annual Class Operating Expenses		Series Fidelity Series Mega Cap Fund Class: Fidelity Series Mega Cap Fund
Management fee (fluctuates based on the fund's performance relative to a securities market index)		0.56%
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) fees		none
Other expenses	[1]	0.27%
Total annual operating expenses		0.83%

This example helps compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

Let's say, hypothetically, that the annual return for shares of the fund is 5% and that your shareholder fees and the annual operating expenses for shares of the fund are exactly as described in the fee table. This example illustrates the effect of fees and expenses, but is not meant to suggest actual or expected fees and expenses or returns, all of which may vary. For every $10,000 you invested, here's how much you would pay in total expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated:

Expense Example (USD $)	Series Fidelity Series Mega Cap Fund Class: Fidelity Series Mega Cap Fund
1 year	85
3 years	265

Portfolio Turnover

The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual operating expenses or in the example, affect the fund's performance.

Principal Investment Strategies

• Normally investing at least 80% of assets in common stocks of companies with mega market capitalizations (which, for purposes of this fund, are those companies with market capitalizations similar to companies in the Russell Top 200^® Index or the S&P 100^® Index).
• Investing in domestic and foreign issuers.
• Investing in either "growth" stocks or "value" stocks or both.
• Using fundamental analysis of factors such as each issuer's financial condition and industry position, as well as market and economic conditions, to select investments.

Principal Investment Risks

• Stock Market Volatility. Stock markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Different parts of the market can react differently to these developments.
• Foreign Exposure. Foreign markets can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments and can perform differently from the U.S. market.
• Issuer-Specific Changes. The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than, and can perform differently from, the market as a whole.

An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. You could lose money by investing in the fund.

Performance

Performance history will be available for the fund after the fund has been in operation for one calendar year.

[1] Based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year.
