Fundamentals of Investing

1. Data Source: Ibbotson Associates, 2010 (1926–2009). Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The asset class (index) returns reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. This chart is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent actual or future performance of any investment option. It is not possible to invest directly in a market index. Stocks are represented by the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500® Index). The S&P 500® is a registered service mark of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., and has been licensed for use by Fidelity Distributors Corporation and its affiliates. It is an unmanaged index of the common stock prices of 500 widely held U.S. stocks that includes the reinvestment of dividends. Bonds are represented by the U.S. Intermediate Government Bond Index, which is an unmanaged index that includes the reinvestment of interest income. Short-term instruments are represented by U.S. Treasury bills, which are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. Inflation is represented by the Consumer Price Index, which monitors the cost of living in the United States. Stock prices are more volatile than those of other securities. Government bonds and corporate bonds have more moderate short-term price fluctuation than stocks but provide lower potential long-term returns. U.S. Treasury bills maintain a stable value (if held to maturity), but returns are generally only slightly above the inflation rate.

   The purpose of the hypothetical asset mixes is to show how different asset allocations may be created with different risk and return characteristics to help meet individuals' goals. You should choose your own investments based on your particular objectives and situation. Remember that you may change how your account is invested. Be sure to review your decisions periodically to make sure they are still consistent with your goals. You should also consider any investments you may have other retirement savings when making your investment choices. These target asset mixes presented in this publication were developed by Strategic Advisers, Inc., a registered investment adviser and Fidelity Investments company, based on the needs of a typical retirement participant.

2. The minimum automatic contribution is $200 per month ($600 per quarter). Non-Fidelity funds and certain Fidelity funds are not eligible.
3. This hypothetical example is based on monthly contributions to a tax-deferred retirement plan and a 7% annual rate of return compounded monthly. Your own Plan account may earn more or less than this example, and income taxes will be due when you withdraw from your account. Investing in this manner does not ensure profit or guarantee against loss in declining markets.
4. As with all your investments through Fidelity, you must make your own determination whether an investment in any particular security or securities is consistent with your objectives, risk tolerance, financial situation and your evaluation of the security.
