It invests in equity securities directly, or indirectly by investing in Fidelity Global Innovators® Investment Trust.

Fidelity Greater Canada Fund (FCGC) - seeks to offer investors long term capital growth by identifying value in out of favour stocks, and investing in equity securities of Canadian companies, with the flexibility to invest up to 49% in foreign markets.

Fidelity Canadian Large Cap Fund (FCLC) - focusing primarily on equity securities of large capitalization Canadian companies, this fund aims to deliver investors long term capital appreciation through a value-oriented strategy, investing in companies the manager considers to be undervalued, with a focus on weathering market volatility.

Fidelity Global Small Cap Opportunities Fund (FCGS) - Through investment in small capitalization companies across global markets, this fund intends to provide investors with long term capital growth through selection of equity securities that the portfolio manager believes are mispriced due to the market’s under reaction to positive change or over reaction to negative change.
