STRATEGIC FUNDS, INC.:
Dreyfus Premier New Leaders Fund 

Supplement to the Prospectus 
Dated May 1, 2007 

The following information supersedes and replaces the first two 
sentences of the second paragraph contained in the Prospectus 
under the heading “The Fund --Goal/Approach”: 

The fund defines “small and midsize companies” as companies 
included in the Russell Midcap Index at the time of purchase. 
The fund may continue to own stocks subsequently removed 
from the Index, but would not expect to do so for extended 
periods due to the application of the portfolio managers’ 
quantitative investment process. 

The following information supplements the information 
contained in the Prospectus under the heading “The Fund -- 
Goal/Approach – Concepts to Understand”: 

Russell MidCap Index: a leading benchmark index constructed 
to provide a comprehensive barometer for the midcap segment of 
the U.S. stock market. As of March 30, 2007, the smallest and 
largest company included in the Index had market capitalizations 
of $1.17 billion and $21.87 billion, respectively, and the 
weighted average and median market capitalizations of the Index 
were $8.84 billion and $4.44 billion, respectively. The Index is 
reconstituted annually to insure that larger stocks do not distort 
the characteristics of the Index.
