STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Matthew Friedman has replaced Thomas Soviero as the portfolio manager of Fidelity Advisor® Value Strategies Fund.

Robert Bertelson no longer serves as portfolio manager of Fidelity® Independence Fund. Jeffrey Feingold serves as portfolio manager for Fidelity® Independence Fund.

The following information replaces similar information found in the "Management Contracts" section.

Matthew Friedman is the portfolio manager of Fidelity Advisor® Value Strategies Fund and receives compensation for his services. Jeffrey Feingold is lead portfolio manager of Fidelity® Independence Fund and receives compensation for his services. As of September 30, 2016, portfolio manager compensation generally consists of a fixed base salary determined periodically (typically annually), a bonus, in certain cases, participation in several types of equity-based compensation plans, and, if applicable, relocation plan benefits. A portion of each portfolio manager’s compensation may be deferred based on criteria established by FMR or at the election of the portfolio manager.

Each portfolio manager’s base salary is determined by level of responsibility and tenure at FMR or its affiliates. The primary components of the portfolio manager’s bonus are based on the pre-tax investment performance of the portfolio manager’s fund(s) and account(s) measured against a benchmark index and within a defined peer group assigned to each fund or account. The pre-tax investment performance of the portfolio manager’s fund(s) and account(s) is weighted according to his tenure on those fund(s) and account(s) and the average asset size of those fund(s) and account(s) over his tenure. Each component is calculated separately over the portfolio manager’s tenure on those fund(s) and account(s) over a measurement period that initially is contemporaneous with his tenure, but that eventually encompasses rolling periods of up to five years for the comparison to a benchmark index and rolling periods of up to three years for the comparison to a peer group. A smaller, subjective component of the portfolio manager’s bonus is based on the portfolio manager’s overall contribution to management of FMR. The portion of Mr. Friedman’s bonus that is linked to the investment performance of Fidelity Advisor® Value Strategies Fund is based on the fund’s pre-tax investment performance measured against the Russell Midcap® Value Index, and the fund’s pre-tax investment performance (based on the performance of the fund’s retail class) within the Morningstar® Mid-Cap Value Category. The portion of Mr. Feingold’s bonus that is linked to the investment performance of Fidelity® Independence Fund is based on the pre-tax investment performance of the fund measured against the S&P 500® Index, and the pre-tax investment performance of the fund (based on the performance of the fund’s retail class) within the Morningstar® Large Growth; Large Value; Large Blend; Mid-Cap Growth; Mid-Cap Value; and Mid-Cap Blend Categories. Each portfolio manager also is compensated under equity-based compensation plans linked to increases or decreases in the net asset value of the stock of FMR LLC, FMR’s parent company. FMR LLC is a diverse financial services company engaged in various activities that include fund management, brokerage, retirement, and employer administrative services. If requested to relocate their primary residence, portfolio managers also may be eligible to receive benefits, such as home sale assistance and payment of certain moving expenses, under relocation plans for most full-time employees of FMR LLC and its affiliates.

A portfolio manager’s compensation plan may give rise to potential conflicts of interest. Although investors in a fund may invest through either tax-deferred accounts or taxable accounts, a portfolio manager’s compensation is linked to the pre-tax performance of the fund, rather than its after-tax performance. A portfolio manager’s base pay tends to increase with additional and more complex responsibilities that include increased assets under management and a portion of the bonus relates to marketing efforts, which together indirectly link compensation to sales. When a portfolio manager takes over a fund or an account, the time period over which performance is measured may be adjusted to provide a transition period in which to assess the portfolio. The management of multiple funds and accounts (including proprietary accounts) may give rise to potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees as a portfolio manager must allocate his or her time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts. In addition, a fund’s trade allocation policies and procedures may give rise to conflicts of interest if the fund’s orders do not get fully executed due to being aggregated with those of other accounts managed by FMR or an affiliate. A portfolio manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by a fund. Securities selected for other funds or accounts may outperform the securities selected for the fund. Portfolio managers may be permitted to invest in the funds they manage, even if a fund is closed to new investors. Trading in personal accounts, which may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, is restricted by a fund’s Code of Ethics.

STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Robert Bertelson no longer serves as portfolio manager of Fidelity® Independence Fund. Jeffrey Feingold serves as portfolio manager of Fidelity® Independence Fund.

Adam Kramer has replaced Thomas Soviero as the portfolio manager of Fidelity® Convertible Securities Fund.

The following information replaces similar information for Fidelity® Convertible Securities Fund found in the "Management Contracts" section.

Adam Kramer is the portfolio manager of Fidelity® Convertible Securities Fund and receives compensation for his services. As of May 31, 2016, portfolio manager compensation generally consists of a fixed base salary determined periodically (typically annually), a bonus, in certain cases, participation in several types of equity-based compensation plans, and, if applicable, relocation plan benefits. A portion of the portfolio manager’s compensation may be deferred based on criteria established by FMR or at the election of the portfolio manager.

Mr. Kramer’s base salary is determined by level of responsibility and tenure at FMR or its affiliates. The primary components of the portfolio manager’s bonus are based on (i) the pre-tax investment performance of the portfolio manager’s fund(s) and account(s) measured against a benchmark index and within a defined peer group assigned to each fund or account, and (ii) the investment performance of other FMR high yield funds and accounts. The pre-tax investment performance of the portfolio manager’s fund(s) and account(s) is weighted according to his tenure on those fund(s) and account(s) and the average asset size of those fund(s) and account(s) over his tenure. Each component is calculated separately over the portfolio manager’s tenure on those fund(s) and account(s) over a measurement period that initially is contemporaneous with his tenure, but that eventually encompasses rolling periods of up to five years for the comparison to a benchmark index and rolling periods of up to five years for the comparison to a peer group. A smaller, subjective component of the portfolio manager’s bonus is based on the portfolio manager’s overall contribution to management of FMR. The portion of the portfolio manager’s bonus that is linked to the investment performance of Fidelity® Convertible Securities Fund is based on the fund’s pre-tax investment performance measured against The BofA Merrill Lynch℠ All US Convertibles Index, and the fund’s pre-tax investment performance (based on the performance of the fund’s retail class) within the Lipper℠ Convertible Securities Funds. The portfolio manager also is compensated under equity-based compensation plans linked to increases or decreases in the net asset value of the stock of FMR LLC, FMR’s parent company. FMR LLC is a diverse financial services company engaged in various activities that include fund management, brokerage, retirement, and employer administrative services.
