Fee Table
The following table describes the fees and expenses that may be incurred when you buy, hold, and sell shares of the fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table or example below.
Shareholder fees | ||||
(fees paid directly from your investment) | None | |||
Annual Operating Expenses | ||||
(expenses that you pay each year as a % of the value of your investment) |
| |||
Management fee | 0.48% | |||
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) fees | None | |||
Other expenses | 0.04% | A | ||

Fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement | 0.04% | B | ||

Total annual operating expenses after fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement | 0.48% |
A Based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year.
B Fidelity Diversifying Solutions LLC (FDS) has contractually agreed to reimburse the fund to the extent that total operating expenses (excluding interest, certain taxes, proxy and shareholder meeting expenses, extraordinary expenses, and acquired fund fees and expenses (including fees and expenses associated with a wholly owned subsidiary), if any, as well as non-operating expenses such as brokerage commissions and fees and expenses associated with the funds securities lending program, if applicable), as a percentage of its average net assets, exceed 0.48% (the Expense Cap). If at any time during the current fiscal year expenses for the class of shares of the fund fall below the Expense Cap, FDS reserves the right to recoup through the end of the fiscal year any expenses that were reimbursed during the current fiscal year up to, but not in excess of, the Expense Cap. This arrangement will remain in effect through May 31, 2025. FDS may not terminate this arrangement before the expiration date without the approval of the Board of Trustees and may extend it in its discretion after that date.
This example helps compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other funds.
Lets say, hypothetically, that the annual return for shares of the fund is 5% and that the fees and the annual operating expenses for shares of the fund are exactly as described in the fee table.
This example illustrates the effect of fees and expenses, but is not meant to suggest actual or expected fees and expenses or returns, all of which may vary. For every $10,000 you invested, heres how much you would pay in total expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated:
1 year | $ | 49 | ||
3 years | $ | 162 |
Portfolio Turnover
The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or turns over its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual operating expenses or in the example, affect the funds performance.
Principal Investment Strategies
Normally investing at least 80% of assets in equity securities.
Investing in equity securities of companies with market capitalizations generally similar to companies in the S&P 500® Index or Russell 1000 Index.
Generally using computer-aided, quantitative analysis of historical valuation, growth, profitability, and other factors to select a broadly diversified group of stocks that may have the potential to provide a higher total return than that of the S&P 500® Index.
Employing a disciplined rules-based Defensive Option Collar strategy designed in combination with a diversified portfolio of equity securities to provide the fund with a significant portion of the returns associated with equity market investments while exposing investors to less risk than traditional long-only equity strategies.
The Defensive Options Collar strategy involves purchasing index put options to provide downside protection in certain market conditions (i.e., offset or mitigate a decrease in the value of the funds investments) and selling index call options that provides income to substantially offset the cost of that downside protection.
Managing the options positions in a way that provides diversification of options strike prices and expirations.
Investing in domestic and foreign issuers.
Lending securities to earn income for the fund.
Principal Investment Risks
Stock Market Volatility. Stock markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Different parts of the market, including different market sectors, and different types of securities can react differently to these developments.
Issuer-Specific Changes. The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than, and can perform differently from, the market as a whole. Changes in the financial condition of an issuer or counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer or other borrower in a securities lending transaction) can increase the risk of default by an issuer or counterparty, which can affect a securitys or instruments value or result in delays in recovering securities and/or capital from a counterparty.
Foreign Exposure. Foreign markets can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments and can perform differently from the U.S. market.
Options Risk. The fund may purchase or write (i.e., sell) put and call options. Under certain circumstances, the fund may be required to buy or sell the underlying security or instrument (or settle in cash an amount of equal value) at a disadvantageous price, resulting in a loss. Options may involve
economic leverage, which could result in greater volatility in price movement. Certain transaction costs associated with purchasing and writing options may impact the funds returns.
Quantitative Investing. Securities selected using quantitative analysis can perform differently from the market as a whole as a result of the factors used in the analysis, the weight placed on each factor, and changes in the factors historical trends.
Securities Lending Risk. Securities lending involves the risk that the borrower may fail to return the securities loaned in a timely manner or at all. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral.
High Portfolio Turnover. High portfolio turnover (more than 100%) may result in increased transaction costs and potentially higher capital gains or losses. The effects of higher than normal portfolio turnover may adversely affect the funds performance.
Fluctuation of Net Asset Value and Share Price. The net asset value per share (NAV) of the fund will generally fluctuate with changes in the market value of the funds holdings. The funds shares can be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Disruptions to creations and redemptions, the existence of extreme market volatility or potential lack of an active trading market for the funds
shares may result in the funds shares trading significantly above (at a premium) or below (at a discount) to NAV.
In addition, in stressed market conditions or periods of market disruption or volatility, the market for shares may become less liquid in response to deteriorating liquidity in the markets for the funds underlying portfolio holdings.
Trading Issues. There can be no assurance that an active trading market will be maintained. Market makers and Authorized Participants are not obligated to make a market in the funds shares or to submit purchase and redemption orders for creation units. In addition, trading may be halted, for example, due to market conditions.
An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. You could lose money by investing in the fund.

Purchase and Sale of Shares
Shares of the fund are listed and traded on an exchange, and individual fund shares may only be bought and sold in the secondary market through a broker or dealer at market price. These transactions, which do not involve the fund, are made at market prices that may vary throughout the day, rather than at NAV. Shares of the fund may trade at a price greater than the funds NAV (premium) or less than the funds NAV (discount). An investor may incur costs attributable to the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay to purchase shares (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept for shares (ask) when buying or selling fund shares in the secondary market (the bid-ask spread).
