Fund Summary
Fund:
Fidelity Flex℠ International Fund
Investment Objective
The fund seeks long-term growth of capital.
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) | None |
Annual Operating Expenses
(expenses that you pay each year as a % of the value of your investment)
Management fee | None | |
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) fees | None | |
Other expenses | 0.00% | |
Total annual operating expenses(a) | 0.00% |
(a) The fund is available only to certain fee-based accounts offered by Fidelity. Managed account clients, retirement plans, plan sponsors and/or plan participants pay a wrap fee that covers investment advisory and administrative services.
This example helps compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other 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. This example does not include any fees paid at the fee-based account or plan level. 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:
1 year | $0 |
3 years | $0 |
5 years | $0 |
10 years | $0 |
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. During the most recent fiscal year, the fund's portfolio turnover rate was 89% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
Principal Investment Risks
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
The following information is intended to help you understand the risks of investing in the fund. The information illustrates the performance of the fund's shares over the past year and compares the performance of the fund's shares to the performance of a securities market index over various periods of time. The index description appears in the "Additional Index Information" section of the prospectus. Past performance (before and after taxes) is not an indication of future performance. The performance shown does not reflect the impact of any fees paid at the fee-based account or plan level.

Year-by-Year Returns
During the periods shown in the chart: | Returns | Quarter ended |
Highest Quarter Return | 0.59% | September 30, 2018 |
Lowest Quarter Return | (12.34)% | December 31, 2018 |
Year-to-Date Return | 17.34% | September 30, 2019 |
Average Annual Returns
After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates, but do not reflect the impact of state or local taxes. Actual after-tax returns may differ depending on your individual circumstances. The after-tax returns shown are not relevant if you hold your shares in a retirement account or in another tax-deferred arrangement, such as an employee benefit plan (profit sharing, 401(k), or 403(b) plan). Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares may be higher than other returns for the same period due to a tax benefit of realizing a capital loss upon the sale of fund shares.

Fidelity Flex℠ International Fund | ||
Return Before Taxes | (14.13)% | 3.13% |

These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing your intermediary and your investment professional to recommend the fund over another investment.
