EX-99 7 0007.txt Exhibit 77M For AXP Stock Fund, Inc.: On July 14, 2000, Strategist Equity Fund (the Strategist Fund), a series of Strategist Growth and Income Fund, Inc. merged into AXP Stock Fund (the AXP Fund). Board action: The Strategist Fund Board members, at a meeting held on March 10, 2000, and the AXP Fund Board members, at a meeting held on March 8-9, 2000, approved the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (Agreement). Each Board determined that participation in the Reorganization was in the best interests of the respective Fund and that the interests of existing shareholders of the respective Fund would not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization. Shareholder approval: The Strategist Fund shareholders approved the Agreement between the Strategist Fund and the corresponding AXP Fund investing in the same master fund at a shareholder meeting held on May 9, 2000.

EX-99 8 0008.txt Independent Auditors' Report on Internal Accounting Control The Board of Directors and Shareholders AXP Stock Fund, Inc.: In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements of AXP Stock Fund, Inc. for the year ended September 30, 2000, we considered its internal control, including control activities for safeguarding securities, in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on the internal control. The management of AXP Stock Fund, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes that are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Those controls include the safeguarding of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition. Because of inherent limitations in internal control, errors or irregularities may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to the risk that it may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design and operation may deteriorate. Our consideration of the internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters involving the internal control and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material weakness as defined above. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Board of Directors of AXP Stock Fund, Inc., and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
