Caution Regarding Forward-looking Statements

Certain portions of this report, including, but not limited to, “Results of Operations” and “Recent Developments”, may contain forward-looking statements about the Fund, including its strategy, risks, expected performance and condition. Forward-looking statements include statements that are predictive in nature, that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, or that include words such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “believes”, “estimates” and similar forward-looking expressions or negative versions thereof.

In addition, any statement that may be made concerning future performance, strategies or prospects, and possible future Fund action, is also a forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are inherently subject to, among other things, risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Fund and economic factors. Accordingly, assumptions concerning future economic and other factors may prove to be incorrect at a future date.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual events and results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking state-ments made by the Fund. Any number of important factors could contribute to these digressions, including, but not limited to, general economic, political and market factors in North America and internationally, interest and foreign exchange rates, global equity and capital markets, business competition, technological change, changes in government regulations, unexpected judicial or regulatory proceedings, and catastrophic events.

It should be stressed that the above-mentioned list of important factors is not exhaustive. You are encouraged to consider these and other factors carefully before making any investment decisions and you are urged to avoid placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Further, you should be aware of the fact that the Fund has no specific intention of updating any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, prior to the release of the next Management Report of Fund Performance.

Management Discussion of Fund PerformanceResults of Operations:Fidelity Global Natural Resources Fund (Fund), Series B, returned -3.6%, after fees and expenses, for the six-month period ended September 30, 2019. The net returns of the other series of this Fund are similar to those of Series B, except for differences attributable to expense structures. Global equities, as measured by the MSCI World Index, returned 3.6% (in Canadian dollar terms) for the review period.

Market overview:

Monetary policy easing and sustained U.S. economic expansion supported global equity markets. Lower interest rates and falling bond yields (interest income from bonds at a given price) resulted in a general preference for higher quality companies, with sustainability of earnings and attractive dividend yields among the key drivers of gains. Furthermore, the falling cost of capital generally supported a sharp rise in share buybacks and lifted earnings per share (as fewer shares remain in issue for the same amount of earnings). However, the rise in global equi-ties was contained due to escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and its leading trade partners, which triggered fears of a global recession. Many analysts also expected that growth in the U.S. economy could be peaking after a ten-year long expansion. Investors also navigated several geopolitical risk events, such as rising tensions in the Middle East, developments related to Brexit, and political turmoil in Italy. European and U.S. equities advanced. While economic indicators weakened, a supportive monetary and fiscal policy framework pushed stock prices higher.

Factors affecting performance:

The Fund’s benchmark index, the MSCI ACWI (All Country World Index) Natural Resources Index, returned -4.6% for the six-month period under review.

The Fund outperformed its benchmark primarily due to exposure to certain stocks in the construction materials industry. Within this industry, investments in U.S.-based building material company Martin Marietta Inc., and U.S.-based construction aggregates producer Vulcan Materials Company, contributed to relative returns. Among other industries, holdings in U.S.-based paint and coating manufacturing company Sherwin-Williams, Canada-based gold mining company Barrick Gold, and U.S.-based gas services firm Air Products & Chemicals, contributed to relative performance.

In contrast, certain investments and a larger-than-benchmark positioning in the paper and forest products industry detracted from relative returns. Within this industry, a holding in Canada-based pressure treated wood products producer Stella-Jones made a leading detraction from relative performance. Across other industries, allocations to Canada-based methanol producer Methanex, Canada-based mining and metals company First Quantum Minerals, and Switzerland-based commodity trading and mining company Glencore, all detracted from relative returns. At the end of the review period, the Fund had no exposure to Glencore.

Portfolio changes:

During the review period, the Fund’s exposure to the chemicals industry increased. In this industry, the portfolio managers initiated a position in U.S.-based paints, coatings, and specialty materials supplier PPG Industries, due to its favourable pricing power in an oligopolistic industry, in the portfolio managers’ view.

In contrast, exposure to the metals and mining industry declined. The portfolio managers exited the position in Switzerland-based commodity trading and mining company Glencore, and reduced exposure to U.K.-based metal and mining company Rio Tinto, to fund more attractive investment opportunities elsewhere.

As at September 30, 2019, the Fund held its largest exposure to the oil, gas and consumable fuels industry, followed by the chemicals industry. The Fund diverged most from its bench-mark’s industry weightings by having more exposure to the containers and packaging industry and less exposure to the metals and mining industry.

Industry-level allocations are a result of the portfolio managers’ bottom-up stock selection process and are not driven by top-down macro analysis.

Recent DevelopmentsPortfolio managers Darren Lekkerkerker and Joe Overdevest continue to employ a research process focused on identifying commodities producers they believe will benefit most from developments in commodity markets. In the energy sector, they are generally cautious on oil and gas over the long-term but believe there could be select opportunities in the near-term, as valuations for select companies appear attractive relative to peers, in their view. In the materials sector, more emphasis is placed on high quality companies with capable management teams and stock prices at reasonable valuations, in their view.

Fidelity Global Natural Resources Fund

Management Discussion of Fund Performance – continued

Fidelity provides or arranges for the provision of all general management and administrative services required by the Fund in its day–to–day operations, bookkeeping, record–keeping and other administrative services for the Fund.

Fidelity is the portfolio adviser to the Fund and it provides investment advisory services to the Fund. Fidelity has entered into sub-advisory agreements with a number of entities including Fidelity (Canada) Asset Management ULC, to provide investment advice with respect to all or a portion of the investments of the Fund. The sub-advisors arrange for acquisition and disposi-tion of portfolio investments, including all necessary brokerage arrangements.

The Fund pays Fidelity a monthly management and advisory fee for their services, based on the net asset value of each Series, calculated daily and payable monthly. The Fund paid Fidelity management and advisory fees of $454,000 for the period ended September 30, 2019.

Administration Fee

Fidelity charges the Fund a fixed administration fee in place of certain variable expenses. Fidelity, in turn, pays all of the operating expenses of the Fund, other than certain specified fund costs (e.g. the fees and expenses of the Independent Review Committee, taxes, brokerage commissions and interest charges). The Fund pays an annual rate, which is calculated on a tiered basis, based on the net asset value of each Series, calculated daily and payable monthly. The Fund paid Fidelity administration fees of $59,000 for the period ended September 30, 2019.

Brokerage Commissions

The Fund may place a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of Fidelity, provided it determines that these affiliates’ trade execution abilities and costs are comparable to those of non–affiliated, qualified brokerage firms, on an execution–only basis. Commissions paid to brokerage firms that are affiliates of Fidelity Investments were $0 for the period ended September 30, 2019. Fidelity receives standing instructions from the IRC in respect of policies and procedures governing best execution of transactions with affiliates, which includes brokers affiliated to Fidelity Investments, at least once per year.

Financial Highlights – continued

Financial Highlights FootnotesA This information is derived from the Fund’s audited annual and/or unaudited interim financial statements. The net assets attributable to securityholders per security presented in the financial statements may differ from the net asset

value calculated for fund pricing purposes. An explanation of these differences can be found in the notes to financial statements. For reporting periods ending after January 1, 2017 per security comparative figures (except for net asset value per security, end of period) have been conformed to the current rounding presentation of two decimal places. As a result, reporting periods ending prior to January 1, 2017 may not foot due to this rounding change.

B Net assets and distributions are based on the actual number of securities outstanding at the relevant time. The increase (decrease) from operations is based on the weighted average number of securities outstanding over the financial period. This table is not intended to be a reconciliation of beginning to ending net assets per security.

C Distributions were paid in cash or reinvested in additional securities of the Fund, or both, and excludes any applicable distributions of management fee reduction to securityholders. Distributions are presented based on management’s best estimate of the tax character.

D This information is provided as at period end of the year shown.E Management expense ratio is based on total expenses (excluding distributions, commissions and other portfolio transaction costs) for the stated period and is expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net asset

values during the period, including the Fund’s pro-rata share of estimated expenses incurred in any underlying investment fund, if applicable.F Effective November 1, 2014, the manager of the Fund has waived a portion of its administration fee and as of the date of the MRFP has continued to provide the Fund with such waivers. The manager may terminate the waiver

at any time, at its sole discretion. It is not known when such waivers will be terminated.G The trading expense ratio represents total commissions and other portfolio transaction costs expressed as an annualized percentage of daily average net asset value during the period, including the Fund’s pro-rata share of estimated

trading costs incurred in any underlying investment fund, if applicable.H The Fund’s portfolio turnover rate indicates how actively the Fund’s portfolio adviser manages its portfolio investments. A portfolio turnover rate of 100% is equivalent to the Fund buying and selling all of the securities in its

portfolio once in the course of the year. The higher the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate in a year, the greater the trading costs payable by the Fund in the year, and the greater chance of an investor receiving taxable capital gains in the year. There is not necessarily a relationship between a high portfolio turnover rate and the performance of the Fund. The portfolio turnover rate is calculated based on the lesser of purchases or sales of securities divided by the weighted average market value of the portfolio securities, excluding short-term securities. For periods greater than six months, but less than a full fiscal year, the portfolio turnover rate is annualized.

I Prior period amounts may have been adjusted.J For the period February 5, 2016 (commencement of sale of securities) to March 31, 2016.K Effective February 9, 2016, the manager of the Fund has waived a portion of its administration fee and as of the date of the MRFP has continued to provide the Fund with such waivers. The manager may terminate the waiver at

any time, at its sole discretion. It is not known when such waivers will be terminated.L For the period December 14, 2018 (commencement of sale of securities) to March 31, 2019.M Effective December 18, 2018, the manager of the Fund has waived a portion of its administration fee and as of the date of the MRFP has continued to provide the Fund with such waivers.

Management and Advisory FeesFidelity serves as manager and investment advisor of the Fund. The Fund pays Fidelity a monthly management and advisory fee for their services, based on the net asset value of each Series, calculated daily and payable monthly. Fidelity uses these management fees to pay for sales and trailing commissions to registered dealers on the distribution of the Fund securities, as well as for the general investment management expenses. Dealer compensation represents cash commissions paid by Fidelity to registered dealers during the period and includes upfront deferred sales charge and trailing commissions. This amount may, in certain circumstances, exceed 100% of the fees earned by Fidelity during the period. For new Funds or Series the amounts presented may not be indicative of longer term operating periods.

Past PerformanceThe performance information shown assumes that all distributions made by the Fund in the periods shown were reinvested in additional securities of the Fund. The performance information does not take into account sales, redemption, distribution or other optional charges that would have reduced returns or performance. How the Fund has performed in the past does not necessarily indicate how it will perform in the future.

The performance data shown for the period occurring prior to the commencement of operations of a series P or E is that of the corresponding series F or F5 (for series P) or B or S5 (for series E). Series F, F5, B and S5 have higher combined management and administration fees than the applicable series P and E. Had a series P or E existed since the commencement of operations of series F, F5, B or S5, the returns of the applicable series P or E would have been higher.

Year-by-Year ReturnsThe following bar chart shows the Fund’s annual performance for each of the years shown, and illustrates how the Fund’s performance was changed from year to year. In percentage terms, the bar chart shows how much an investment made on the first day of each financial year would have grown or decreased by the last day of each financial year. For each Series in the Year-by-Year Returns table below, the most recent returns stated are for the current six month period.

Fidelity’s mutual funds are sold by registered Investment Professionals. Each Fund has a simplified prospectus, which contains important information on the Fund, including its investment objective, purchase options, and applicable charges. Please obtain a copy of the prospectus, read it carefully, and consult your Investment Professional before investing. As with any investment, there are risks to investing in mutual funds. There is no assurance that any Fund will achieve its investment objective, and its net asset value, yield, and investment return will fluctuate from time to time with market conditions. Investors may experience a gain or loss when they sell their securities in any Fidelity Fund. Fidelity Global Funds may be more volatile than other Fidelity Funds as they concentrate investments in one sector and in fewer issuers; no single Fund is intended to be a complete diversified investment program. Past performance is no assurance or indicator of future returns. There is no assurance that either Fidelity Canadian Money Market Fund, Fidelity Canadian Money Market Investment Trust, Fidelity U.S. Money Market Fund or Fidelity U.S. Money Market Investment Trust will be able to maintain its net asset value at a constant amount. The breakdown of Fund investments is presented to illustrate the way in which a Fund may invest, and may not be representative of a Fund’s current or future investments. A Fund’s investments may change at any time.
