Fidelity Strategic Dividend & Income Fund Key Takeaways Most of the fund's share classes (excluding sales charges, if applicable) rose about 8% for the semiannual reporting period ending May 31, 2017, lagging the 8.74% advance of the Fidelity Strategic Dividend & Income Composite Index SM. Versus the Composite benchmark, aggregate effects from security selection within the fund's individual subportfolios weighed on results, whereas asset allocation decisions among the fund's subportfolios proved a slight positive this period. Among the individual subportfolios, security selection in the fund's dividend-paying equities and convertibles sleeves were by far the biggest detractors on a relative basis. The managers think volatility could pick up in 2017, as the U.S. Federal Reserve is expected to continue to raise short-term interest rates and begin reducing the size of its balance sheet. They also believe the fund should continue to provide a source of income generation amid historically low interest rates and may benefit from active management within subportfolios and from the bond-like qualities of some of its asset classes. On April 8, 2017, Ramona Persaud assumed co-manager responsibility of the fund's dividend-paying equities subportfolio alongside Scott Offen through December 31, at which time she will become sole Portfolio Manager of the sleeve. After more than 30 years at Fidelity, Scott Offen will retire at the end of 2017. On July 20, 2017, Adam Kramer became Co-Lead Portfolio Manager of the fund, replacing Joanna Bewick. MARKET RECAP For the six months ending May 31, 2017, the Fidelity Strategic Dividend & Income Composite Index SM advanced 8.74%, as all of the asset classes that make up the Composite benchmark posted gains. Dividend-paying equities, by far the largest Composite component, turned in the strongest result, with the MSCI USA High Dividend Yield Index up 10.08%. The asset class rose along with the broader stock market, as investors largely favored risk assets. Convertible securities, represented by The BofA Merrill Lynch SM All US Convertibles Index, returned 8.81%. Investors were attracted to the asset class which exhibits hybrid equity- and debt-like features against corresponding strength in the equity markets. Meanwhile, historically low interest rates continued to support equity REITs (real estate investment trusts) and preferred securities for most of the period. However, the U.S. Federal Reserve raised interest rates twice during the past six months, which held back performance for both asset types. The FTSE NAREIT Equity REITs Index and The BofA Merrill Lynch SM Fixed Rate Preferred Securities Index rose 5.22% and 7.89%, respectively. Not FDIC Insured May Lose Value No Bank Guarantee

Q&A Joanna Bewick Portfolio Manager Fund Facts Trading Symbol: FSDIX Start Date: December 23, 2003 Size (in millions): $5,256.90 Investment Approach Ford O'Neil Co-Lead Manager Fidelity Strategic Dividend & Income Fund is a multiasset-class strategy that seeks to provide reasonable income, and potentially also capital appreciation, by investing in a diversified mix of dividend-oriented equity and hybrid securities. The fund's assets are allocated among high dividendyielding stocks, preferred stocks, real estate investment trusts (REITs) and convertible securities, using a target weighting of 50%, 20%, 15% and 15%, respectively. This strategic allocation attempts to take advantage of the low correlation among these equity/hybrid classes with a goal of optimizing total returns while containing volatility over time. Specialized subportfolio managers are responsible for security selection in their respective areas of expertise and represent the primary source of alpha (risk-adjusted excess return), while the lead portfolio managers have the flexibility to make tactical allocation shifts around the target mix to help manage risk and capitalize on relativevalue opportunities. An interview with Joanna Bewick, Lead Portfolio Manager for the review period, and Co-Manager Ford O'Neil Q: Joanna, how did the fund perform for the six months ending May 31, 2017 J.B. For this semiannual reporting period, most of the fund's share classes (excluding sales charges, if applicable) rose about 8%, lagging the 8.74% advance of the Fidelity Strategic Dividend & Income Composite Index. The fund also finished behind the peer group average. Versus the Composite index, aggregate effects of security selection within the fund's individual subportfolios weighed on overall results. Meanwhile, our asset allocation decisions among subportfolios proved a slight positive this period. Looking a bit further back, the fund finished slightly behind the Composite benchmark and the peer group average for the trailing 12 months as well. Q: Ford, what drove performance of the fund's subportfolios during the past six months F.O. Security selection effects in the fund's dividend-paying equities and convertibles sleeves were by far the biggest detractors on a relative basis. The dividend-paying equities subportfolio lagged its asset class benchmark primarily due to an overweighting in the energy sector, which underperformed amid a decline in oil prices. Stock picks here also detracted. Underexposure to the consumer staples sector, especially tobacco stocks, also dragged on the subportfolio's relative result. The period's largest detractor here was the decision not to own index heavyweight Philip Morris International, a global cigarette and tobacco company. Philip Morris stock rose 39% amid low interest rates and a weaker U.S. dollar. The convertibles sleeve primarily was hampered by security selection among health care, consumer discretionary and information technology names. Lastly, while the fund attempts to be as fully invested as possible, a certain amount of cash is kept in reserve to facilitate trades; this cash was a modest drag on relative performance this period. 2 For definitions, fund risks and other important information, please see the Definitions and Important Information section of this Q&A.

Q: How did the other subportfolios fare F.O. Our preferreds subportfolio also underperformed its benchmark. Specifically, picks within food & drug retail and super retail (i.e., non-food, non-drug, mainly department and specialty stores) segments, along with the fund's shorter-duration profile, eclipsed the positive of security selection within the technology sector. On the plus side, our REITs subportfolio notably outpaced its benchmark. An underweighting in the poor-performing shopping centers segment was a big contributor here. Positioning in specialty and industrial REITs, along with picks in lodging/resorts, also lifted relative performance. Q: Back to you, Joanna. What influenced decisions in the preferreds subportfolio J.B. Coming into the six-month review period, we were underweighted preferred securities partly because of their sensitivity to interest rates. This worked well when market rates jumped following November's U.S. presidential election. After that, we decided to take advantage of preferreds' underperformance and increase our position in the asset class somewhat, as we didn't see market rates rising materially in the intermediate term. Nevertheless, we remained slightly underweighted at period end. We funded our positional increase in preferreds largely through a slight reduction in our large-cap equity exposure. The outperformance of equities and corresponding underperformance of preferreds created a relative value opportunity, in our view. Q: How did your choices affect relative results J.B. While preferreds performed well on an absolute basis, the asset class modestly lagged the Composite benchmark. Preferred securities returned nearly 8% for the six months, held back by the rising-rate environment. Thus our underweighted stance here contributed. Similarly, REITs also fell short of the Composite due to rising rates. The asset class advanced about 5%. We think it's important to note that REITs can be sensitive to interest rates over shorter time horizons; however, the longer-term correlation to the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield is quite low. We underweighted equity REITs this period due to their valuations, and this stance added value. We remained overweighted in convertible securities, which had minimal effect on performance because the asset class only slightly outpaced the benchmark this period. Meanwhile, we were modestly underweighted in dividendpaying equities, the largest asset class allocation in the fund. We felt valuations here were a little stretched against the backdrop of very low interest rates. This positioning proved only a slight negative over the full period. The only meaningful negative from an asset allocation standpoint was the fund's modest overall cash position, which hurt relative performance against a generally strong market backdrop the past six months. Q: Joanna, what is your outlook at period end J.B. Our data indicates the U.S. economy is maturing although we think it still appears healthy and is showing both mid- and late-cycle characteristics. In the corporate sector, profits have bounced back following a multiyear slowdown, even as credit conditions have modestly tightened. Meanwhile, a resilient consumer is benefiting from robust strength in the labor market. Outside the U.S., many economies are benefiting from a synchronized global expansion. Near-term stabilization in China has aided emerging markets as well as the export sectors of many developed economies. Given our generally constructive backdrop, the fund is overweighted select risk assets, although allocations have been reduced due to what we see as the advanced stage of the U.S. economic cycle, higher valuations among assets and very low market volatility. The follow-on to this is we think income, rather than capital appreciation, is likely to play a more prominent role in total return going forward. This partly explains our overweighting in convertible securities and is why we added to our position in preferred securities. Going forward, we would not be surprised to see a pickup in volatility, as we expect the U.S. Federal Reserve to continue to raise short-term interest rates and begin to reduce the size of its balance sheet. Other potential sources of volatility include political risk, a shortfall of real economic results versus elevated expectations, and a slowing economy in China. We'll continue to monitor these factors and to make additional asset allocation changes as opportunities arise. 3 For definitions, fund risks and other important information, please see the Definitions and Important Information section of this Q&A.

SUBPORTFOLIO COMPOSITION Joanna Bewick on the fund's potential in the current market: "Although the Federal Reserve has been raising rates, long-term market interest rates have actually fallen slightly so far in 2017. We think interest rates could remain near recent historical lows, which could cause investors to seek incomegenerating opportunities. We believe Strategic Dividend & Income Fund, with its focus on nonbond income-producing assets should remain a viable option in such a market. "The fund focuses on generating income while providing potential for capital appreciation. Historically, most asset classes in the fund have provided higher returns from income than has the broad-market S&P 500 index. We think income is an important component of total return. "In addition, we expect security selection to become more meaningful to total return as we move further into the later stages of the economic cycle especially if volatility arises. This is where we believe the fund could really shine. "The fund's defensive properties represent another potential benefit amid market volatility. Most of the fund's asset classes have a lower risk profile than the broader market, largely due to their income components. "For example, when growth is challenged and equities perform poorly, preferred and convertible securities still have the potential to generate healthy total returns because of their ability to pay income. Equity-market volatility typically exerts only a muted effect on these asset types due to their bond-like features."

Definitions and Important Information FUND RISKS Stock markets, especially foreign markets, are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Fixed income investments entail interest rate risk (as interest rates rise bond prices usually fall), the risk of issuer default, issuer credit risk and inflation risk. Foreign securities are subject to interest rate, currency exchange rate, economic, and political risks. Changes in real estate values or economic downturns can have a significant negative effect on issuers in the real estate industry. Lower-quality bonds can be more volatile and have greater risk of default than higher-quality bonds. Value stocks can perform differently than other types of stocks and can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time. IMPORTANT FUND INFORMATION Relative positioning data presented in this commentary is based on the fund's primary benchmark (index) unless a secondary benchmark is provided to assess performance. Effective 4/8/17, Ramona Persaud was added as co-portfolio manager of the fund.
