Before you invest


Money market funds have different characteristics than bank sweep accounts and savings accounts. Read any fund's prospectus carefully.

  • More information

    An important difference is that bank sweep products have FDIC protection, which guarantees principal and interest within limits; and money market funds and non-bank default sweep products do not. See more information about safeguarding your accounts. The Fidelity fund yield is the average amount earned by the fund after expenses over the past 7 days (per date indicated) and annualized. The Schwab APY is the amount of total interest earned on a bank product in 1 year. Please consider each type of account and products carefully, as there are differences in services and fees.


    You could lose money by investing in the fund. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. An investment in the fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Fidelity Investments and its affiliates, the fund's sponsor, have no legal obligation to provide financial support to the fund, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the fund at any time.
