REPORTS TO STOCKHOLDERS. CGM CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT FUND 46th Annual Report December 31, 2006 A No-Load Fund [logo] Investment Adviser CAPITAL GROWTH MANAGEMENT Limited Partnership TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CGM Capital Development Fund increased 2.9% during the fourth quarter of 2006 compared to the unmanaged Standard and Poor's 500 Index which returned 6.7%. For the year just ended, CGM Capital Development Fund returned 6.3% and the unmanaged S&P 500 Index increased 15.8%. THE YEAR IN REVIEW AND ECONOMIC OUTLOOK 2006 was another year of economic expansion with November marking the fifth anniversary of the start of the current growth cycle. The year took off with a bang with real Gross Domestic Product jumping by 5.6% (annualized) in the first quarter, but GDP growth slowed significantly to a 2.0% rate (annualized) by the third quarter. Two sectors were largely responsible for putting on the economic brakes: First, the American auto industry continues to lose market share and is increasingly forced to cut back in order to compete with foreign brands. Second, after four years of booming business and unsustainably spiraling prices, in our view, the homebuilding industry is feeling the pinch, curiously though, in spite of low unemployment and relatively low interest rates. Downturns in these two major industries notwithstanding, the US economy added 140,000 jobs per month in 2006 with the largest gains coming in the health and service sectors. The Federal Reserve Board ratcheted up the Federal Funds rate from 1% in June of 2004 to 5.25% in June of 2006 in an attempt to slow the economy and ward off inflation. We believe the Fed's plan seems to be working since core inflation (ex food and energy) clocked in at a growth rate of 2.2% (annualized) over the past three months, down from 3.5% (annualized) in July. Four consecutive meetings of the Fed have come and gone since its last rate hike and the long term (ten-year) treasury yield has declined from 5.1% in June 2006 to 4.7% at year end. We are still experiencing the "inverted yield curve," we described in our last report and, though this state of affairs when short-term interest rates exceed long-term interest rates is often considered a harbinger of recession, we believe otherwise. Vital signs, most notably the strength of employment numbers, a recovery in Consumer Confidence and the fact that weakness in the housing industry hasn't spread to other businesses, in our opinion, point to continued growth at a modest rate. From January 3, 2006 until early May of 2006, the US equity market as measured by the S&P 500 Index rose 6% from 1,248 to 1,325. The S&P dropped 7.5% to 1,225 in mid-June and then, gradually climbed 16% exclusive of dividends over the remaining months to 1,418 at year end. Given year-end profit levels, the S&P 500 Index was priced about 16 times earnings of the Index at the end of 2006, which seems to us quite reasonable in light of current inflation and long term interest rates. PORTFOLIO STRATEGY CGM Capital Development Fund remained fully invested throughout 2006, which reflected our belief in continued global economic growth. We maintained a significant position in energy and related industries that reached 36.2% of portfolio net assets as of June 30, 2006 in anticipation of rising energy prices. The price of oil, which was $60 a barrel in January of 2006, rose to $78 per barrel in July, but fell abruptly to less than $60 at the end of September. The value of the portfolio's energy-related stocks declined significantly along with the cost of oil and the position was reduced to 4% of the portfolio at the end of September. As a consequence, CGM Capital Development Fund underperformed the unmanaged Standard and Poor's 500 Index by 12.9% for the third quarter which had a sizeable negative impact on total 2006 performance. The Fund also invested in a variety of special situations during the year. Securities in an energy drink producer and Mexican homebuilder generated sizeable appreciation. At the other end of the scale, investments in securities of a convenience-store-operator and diet-foods-marketer were sold at considerable losses. At the end of the year, CGM Capital Development Fund owned 23 stocks in a variety of industries. The Fund held important positions in the airline, housing and building materials and financial services industries on December 31 and the largest holdings were Desarrolladora Homex, S.A.B. de C.V.

CGM CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT FUND ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- DECEMBER 31, 2006 1. The Fund is organized as a Massachusetts business trust under the laws of Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and Declaration of Trust. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment company. Along with three other funds in a separate Trust, there are four CGM Funds. The Fund commenced operations on August 14, 1961. The Fund's objective is long-term capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to attain its objective by investing in the equity securities of a relatively small but diverse group of companies and industries. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A. SECURITY VALUATION -- Equity securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of Trustees. The pricing service provides the last reported sale price for securities listed on a national securities exchange or, in the case of the NASDAQ national market system, the NASDAQ official closing price. For securities with no sale reported and in the case of over-the-counter securities not so listed, the last reported bid price is used. Short-term investments having a maturity of sixty days or less are stated at amortized cost, which approximates value. Other assets and securities which are not readily marketable will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods determined by the Board of Trustees. B. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date net of applicable foreign taxes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Net gain or loss on securities sold is determined on the identified cost basis. C. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute to its shareholders all of its taxable income and net realized capital gains, within the prescribed time period. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been made. At December 31, 2006, there were no capital loss carryovers available to offset future realized gains. As of December 31, 2006, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows: UNDISTRIBUTED UNDISTRIBUTED LONG-TERM NET UNREALIZED ORDINARY INCOME CAPITAL GAINS APPRECIATION/(DEPRECIATION) --------------- ----------------------- --------------------------- $-- $-- $37,334,189 The identified cost of investments in securities owned by the Fund for federal income tax purposes, and their respective gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation at December 31, 2006 was as follows: GROSS UNREALIZED GROSS UNREALIZED NET UNREALIZED IDENTIFIED COST APPRECIATION DEPRECIATION APPRECIATION --------------- ---------------- ---------------- -------------- $417,345,861 $47,543,072 $(10,208,883) $37,334,189 D. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends and distributions are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. The classification of income and capital gains distributions is determined in accordance with income tax regulations. Distributions from net investment income and short-term capital gains are treated as ordinary income for income tax purposes. Permanent book and tax differences relating to shareholder distributions may result in reclassifications to paid-in capital or accumulated realized gain/loss. These differences are primarily related to foreign exchange gains/losses and netting net operating loss with net short-term gains. The Fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the dividend deduction for income tax purposes. Undistributed net investment income or accumulated net investment loss may include temporary book and tax differences such as tax deferral of losses on wash sales, which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year. The tax character of distributions paid during the period ended December 31, 2006, were as follows: LONG-TERM ORDINARY INCOME CAPITAL GAINS TOTAL --------------- ------------- ----- $51,867,597 $13,096,951 $64,964,548 E. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION -- All assets and liabilities initially expressed in terms of foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars. Transactions affecting statement of operations accounts and net realized gain/(loss) on investments are translated at the rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currency, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at the end of the period, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. F. INDEMNITIES -- In the normal course of business, CGM Capital Development Fund may enter into contracts that provide indemnities to third parties for various potential losses and claims. CGM Capital Development Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would depend on future claims that may be made against CGM Capital Development Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote. 2. FOREIGN INVESTMENT RISK -- There are certain additional risks involved in investing in foreign securities that are not inherent in investments in domestic securities. These risks may involve adverse political and economic developments and the possible imposition of currency exchange blockages or other foreign governmental laws or restrictions. In addition, the securities of some foreign companies and securities markets are less liquid and at times more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. securities markets. 3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES -- For the period ended December 31, 2006, purchases and sales of securities other than United States government obligations and short-term investments aggregated $1,415,927,524 and $1,457,210,460, respectively. There were no purchases or sales of United States government obligations. 4. A. MANAGEMENT FEES -- During the period ended December 31, 2006, the Fund incurred management fees of $4,753,467 paid or payable to the Fund's investment adviser, Capital Growth Management Limited Partnership (CGM), certain officers and directors of which are also officers and trustees of the Fund. The management agreement provides for a fee at the annual rate of 1.00% on the first $500 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, 0.95% of the next $500 million and 0.80% of such assets in excess of $1 billion. B. OTHER EXPENSES -- CGM performs certain administrative, accounting, compliance and other services for the Fund. The expenses of those services, which are paid to CGM by the Fund, include the following: (i) expenses for personnel performing bookkeeping, accounting, and financial reporting functions and clerical functions relating to the Fund; (ii) expenses for services required in connection with the preparation of registration statements and prospectuses, shareholder reports and notices, proxy solicitation material furnished to shareholders of the Fund or regulatory authorities and reports and questionnaires for SEC compliance; (iii) registration, filing and other fees in connection with requirements of regulatory authorities; and (iv) compliance in connection to the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. The Accounting, Administration and Compliance expense of $84,606, for the period ended December 31, 2006, is shown separately in the financial statements. These expenses include the reimbursement of a portion of the compensation expenses incurred by CGM for its employees who provide these administrative, accounting, compliance, and other services to the Fund, some of whom are officers of the Fund. Of the total expense reimbursement, $65,890 represented reimbursements by the Fund to CGM for a portion of the salaries of CGM employees who are officers of the Fund. C. TRUSTEES FEES AND EXPENSES -- The Fund does not pay any compensation directly to any trustees who are directors, officers or employees of CGM, or any affiliate of CGM (other than registered investment companies). For the period ended December 31, 2006, each disinterested trustee was compensated by the CGM Funds with an annual fee of $50,000 plus travel expenses for each meeting attended. The disinterested trustees are responsible for the audit committee functions of the CGM Funds and have designated a chairman to oversee these functions who receives an additional $30,000 annually. Of these amounts, each of the CGM Funds is responsible for $7,000 per trustee annually, plus an annual variable fee calculated based on the proportion of each of the CGM Funds' average net assets relative to the aggregate average net assets of the CGM Funds. 5.

6. OTHER -- On July 13, 2006 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" (FIN48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more likely than not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more likely than not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for the first financial statement reporting period after June 29, 2007 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact on the financial statements, if any, has not yet been determined. CGM CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT FUND ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of CGM Capital Development Fund: 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 CGM Capital Development Fund (the "Fund") at December 31, 2006, 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 Fund'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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2006 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Fund's Forms N-Q are available on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C.

CGM CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT FUND ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUND EXPENSES As a shareholder of CGM Capital Development Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which could include, among other charges, wire fees and custodial maintenance fees for certain types of accounts and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period July 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006. ACTUAL RETURN AND EXPENSES The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as any wire fees or custodial maintenance fees that may be payable. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beginning Ending Expenses Paid Account Value Account Value During Period* 7/01/06 12/31/06 7/01/06 - 12/31/06 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000.00 $954.40 $5.47 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000.00 $1,019.61 $5.65 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 1.11%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).
