QUARTERLY FUND REVIEW AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2017 Fidelity Capital Appreciation Fund Investment Approach Fidelity Capital Appreciation Fund is a diversified domestic equity strategy focused on capital appreciation. We employ a flexible, "go-anywhere" investment approach that seeks investment opportunities across different market capitalizations and investment styles. The fund does not have an overriding style bias to either growth stocks or value stocks. The prevailing market environment and opportunities determine the style and positioning of the fund. We emphasize fundamental, bottom-up research, technical analytics and frequent company contact when evaluating investment opportunities and tend to favor companies with solid earnings growth and reasonable valuations, while a minority portion of the fund may focus on shorter-term, opportunistic trading.

Performance Review For the three months ending September 30, 2017, the fund's Retail Class shares classes gained 6.83%, well ahead of the 4.48% return of the benchmark S&P 500 index. Stock selection, especially in the materials, industrials and health care sectors, drove the fund's excess return over the benchmark this quarter. Underweighting consumer staples, the benchmark's weakest-performing sector for the three months, also helped. Overall, we added value in eight of 11 market sectors. Air Canada proved the fund's top relative contributor. This out-ofbenchmark position returned 57% for the quarter, aided by record EBITDAR (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and aircraft rent) for the second quarter of 2017. Additionally, strength in the Canadian dollar reduced the firm's maintenance, fuel and depreciation costs, which are primarily priced in U.S. currency. Vertex Pharmaceuticals, where the fund had a sizable overweighting, rewarded us with an 18% gain this quarter. The company is a large-cap biotech focused on developing drugs for treating previously incurable cystic fibrosis. In mid-july, management announced that three of four next-generation treatments for the condition had positive phase 1 and phase 2 data. A highlight of the report was the efficacy and safety shown by the three regimens. The data showed consistency across many regimens and patient populations, and was viewed as a gamechanger for the disease. Shares of online payment processor PayPal s, a stock we overweighted, rose about 19% for the third quarter, fueled by the company's strong second-quarter earnings. The continued trend of e-commerce and mobile payments supported the stock the past three months. Strategic partnerships with various businesses also were favorable, specifically the firm's partnership with Baidu, which serves Chinese consumers making transactions outside of LARGEST CONTRIBUTORS VS.

Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile SA (PN- B) sponsored ADR * 1 basis point = 0.01%. Information Technology 1.40% 19 Materials 0.35% 19 China. In July, PayPal raised its fiscal-year guidance, as the number of active customer accounts increased 12% year over year, further helping the stock's price. Conversely, positioning in the consumer discretionary sector was the biggest drag on relative performance, with our cash holdings which averaged about 4% of the fund's net assets this period detracting to a lesser extent. At the stock level, a sizable out-of-benchmark position in Netherlands-based telecommunications company Altice was the fund's largest detractor. Following its June 2016 acquisition of Cablevision Systems, the company formed a new telecommunications giant in the U.S. under the name of Altice USA; its stock began trading in June 2017. During the third quarter, the stock returned -13%. Some of the decline came after reports that the company, which already carried considerable debt from previous deals, was thinking about buying Charter Communications, the second-largest U.S. cable company. J.C. Penney was another noteworthy detractor. Shares of the retailer returned -18% this quarter, with most of the damage occurring after news in August that the company recorded its fifth straight quarter of weaker sales. Penney also missed estimates with a larger loss of 9 cents a share on an adjusted basis, versus expectations of 5 cents per share. Retailers like J.C. Penney have struggled to stem declining store traffic as consumers shift more of their spending online. Yet, we viewed this company as a turnaround story that was making reasonable progress and was relatively inexpensive. Las Vegas Sands also detracted. The stock didn't perform all that badly: our non-benchmark position here returned about 2% for the quarter; however, Sands was the fund's second-largest position, which magnified the effect of its lagging result.

Outlook and Positioning We continue to position the fund based on the assumption of a moderately expanding U.S. economy. The biggest change in the fund's positioning was a reduction in its weighting in the consumer discretionary sector. For the most part, this decrease resulted from lowering our exposure to the media and retailing categories, where we thought the fundamental backdrop had deteriorated in several cases. That said, consumer discretionary was still the fund's secondlargest overweighting at quarter end, and within that category was Las Vegas Sands, the fund's largest non-benchmark position. We continue to like this company for its Las Vegas operations, its casino property in Macau and the growing likelihood of getting approval to open a facility in Japan. Our largest sector overweighting at the end of September was materials. We added to the fund's allocation to this sector and a number of others with the capital freed up by sales in consumer discretionary. Our holdings in materials were represented by several industries, including metals and mining, chemicals and construction materials. Our largest holding in this sector was FMC, a supplier of agricultural chemicals. In March, the company agreed to buy a portion of DuPont's crop-protection business in exchange for FMC's health & nutrition operations, $425 million in working capital and $1.2 billion in cash. We considered this transaction an upgrade for FMC. We carried a modest overweighting in health care at quarter end, with much of this exposure tilted toward biotechnology, which we continue to like for its growth potential in a slow-growth world. Here, Amgen was the fund's fourth-largest individual overweighting, while Vertex Pharmaceuticals was fifth-largest. By far, the fund's biggest sector underweighting was consumer staples. We viewed this sector as expensive, given the generally mediocre growth prospects we found there. Thus, we avoided index stocks such as Procter & Gamble and Coca-Cola. In financials, we had a modest overweighting at the end of September. However, the fund's industry weightings within this sector were quite different from the benchmark's. We maintained a sizable underweighting in banks. Although we've seen some tangible benefits for banks since the U.S. presidential election in the form of higher interest rates and easing restrictions on their ability to return capital to shareholders, we thought a lot of these positives were already reflected in share prices, and we weren't confident that rates would continue to move up. Most of our financials exposure was to asset managers, brokers and other firms in the diversified financials category, which we believe should continue to benefit if capital flows into the financial markets remain healthy. The energy sector remained the fund's second-largest underweighting on September 30. Oil has been choppy lately, and with inventories at healthy levels, it's difficult to know where the price of oil is headed in the short term. The fund's largest individual underweighting at quarter end was e-commerce titan Amazon.com, which we avoided for valuation reasons.

3-YEAR RISK/RETURN STATISTICS Beta is a measure of the volatility of a fund relative to its benchmark index. A beta greater (less) than 1 is more (less) volatile than the index. Information Ratio measures a fund's active return (fund's average monthly return minus the benchmark's average monthly return) in relation to the volatility of its active returns. R-Squared measures how a fund's performance correlates with a benchmark index's performance and shows what portion of it can be explained by the performance of the overall market/index. R- Squared ranges from 0, meaning no correlation, to 1, meaning perfect correlation. An R-Squared value of less than 0.5 indicates that annualized alpha and beta are not reliable performance statistics. Sharpe Ratio is a measure of historical risk-adjusted performance. It is calculated by dividing the fund's excess returns (the fund's average annual return for the period minus the 3-month "risk free" return rate) and dividing it by the standard deviation of the fund's returns. The higher the ratio, the better the fund's return per unit of risk. The three month "risk free" rate used is the 90-day Treasury Bill rate. Standard Deviation is a statistical measurement of the dispersion of a fund's return over a specified time period. Fidelity calculates standard deviations by comparing a fund's monthly returns to its average monthly return over a 36-month period, and then annualizes the number. Investors may examine historical standard deviation in conjunction with historical returns to decide whether a fund's volatility would have been acceptable given the returns it would have produced. A higher standard deviation indicates a wider dispersion of past returns and thus greater historical volatility. Standard deviation does not indicate how the fund actually performed, but merely indicates the volatility of its returns over time. Tracking Error is the divergence between the price behavior of a position or a portfolio and the price behavior of a benchmark, creating an unexpected profit or loss.
