forward contracts on physical commodities and other commodity
interests, including, but not limited to, foreign currencies,
financial instruments, metals, energy, and agricultural products.
The Partnership commenced operations on November 2, 1994. The
Partnership is one of the Morgan Stanley Spectrum series of funds,
comprised of the Partnership, Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency
L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Select L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum
Strategic L.P., and Morgan Stanley Spectrum Technical L.P.
(collectively, the "Spectrum Series").

Item 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA (in dollars)

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity. The Partnership deposits its assets with Morgan
Stanley DW as non-clearing broker and MS & Co. and MSIL as
clearing brokers in separate futures, forwards, and options
trading accounts established for the Trading Advisor, which assets
are used as margin to engage in trading and may be used as margin
solely for the Partnership's trading. The assets are held in
either non-interest bearing bank accounts or in securities and
instruments permitted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
for investment of customer segregated or secured funds. Since the
Partnership's sole purpose is to trade in futures, forwards, and
options, it is expected that the Partnership will continue to own
such liquid assets for margin purposes.

The Partnership's investment in futures, forwards, and options
may, from time to time, be illiquid. Most U.S. futures exchanges
limit fluctuations in prices during a single day by regulations
referred to as "daily price fluctuations limits" or "daily
limits". Trades may not be executed at prices beyond the daily
limit. If the price for a particular futures or options contract
has increased or decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit,
positions in that futures or options contract can neither be taken
nor liquidated unless traders are willing to effect trades at or
within the limit. Futures prices have occasionally moved the
daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no
trading. These market conditions could prevent the Partnership
from promptly liquidating its futures or options contracts and
result in restrictions on redemptions.

There is no limitation on daily price moves in trading forward
contracts on foreign currencies. The markets for some world
currencies have low trading volume and are illiquid, which may
prevent the Partnership from trading in potentially profitable
markets or prevent the Partnership from promptly liquidating
unfavorable positions in such markets, subjecting it to
substantial losses. Either of these market conditions could
result in restrictions on redemptions. Illiquidity has not
materially affected the Partnership's assets.

There are no known material trends, demands, commitments, events
or uncertainties at the present time that will result in, or that
are reasonably likely to result in, the Partnership's liquidity
increasing or decreasing in any material way.

Capital Resources. The Partnership does not have, nor expect to
have, any capital assets. Redemptions, exchanges and sales of
additional Units in the future will affect the amount of funds
available for investment in futures, forwards, and options in
subsequent periods. It is not possible to estimate the amount,
and therefore the impact, of future redemptions of Units.
There are no known material trends, favorable or
unfavorable, that would affect, nor any expected material changes
to, the Partnership's capital resource arrangements at the present
time. The Partnership does not have any off-balance sheet
arrangements, nor does it have contractual obligations or
commercial commitments to make future payments that would affect
its liquidity or capital resources.

Results of Operations.
General. The Partnership's results depend on the Trading Advisor
and the ability of the Trading Advisor's trading programs to take
advantage of price movements or other profit opportunities in the
futures, forwards, and options markets. The following presents a
summary of the Partnership's operations for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 2003, and a general discussion of
its trading activities during each period. It is important to
note, however, that the Trading Advisor trades in various markets
at different times and that prior activity in a particular market
does not mean that such market will be actively traded by the
Trading Advisor or will be profitable in the future. Consequently,
the results of operations of the Partnership are difficult to
discuss other than in the context of the Trading Advisor's trading
activities on behalf of the Partnership and how the Partnership has
performed in the past. Past performance is not necessarily
indicative of future results.

The Partnership's results of operations are set forth in
its financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
which require the use of certain accounting policies that affect
the amounts reported in these financial statements, including the
following: The contracts the Partnership trades are accounted for
on a trade-date basis and marked to market on a daily basis. The
difference between their cost and market value is recorded on the
Statements of Operations as "Net change in unrealized profit/loss"
for open (unrealized) contracts, and recorded as "Realized
profit/loss" when open positions are closed out, and the sum of
these amounts constitutes the Partnership's trading revenues. The
market value of a futures contract is the settlement price on the
exchange on which that futures contract is traded on a particular
day. The value of foreign currency forward contracts is based on
the spot rate as of the close of business, New York City time, on
a given day. Interest income revenue, as well as management fees,
incentive fees and brokerage fees expenses of the Partnership are
recorded on an accrual basis.

Demeter believes that, based on the nature of the operations of
the Partnership, no assumptions relating to the application of

critical accounting policies other than those presently
used could reasonably affect reported amounts.

The Partnership recorded revenues including interest totaling
$6,038,905 and expenses totaling $2,961,397, resulting in net
income of $3,077,508 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The
Partnership's net asset value per Unit increased from $14.57 at
December 31, 2002 to $15.47 at December 31, 2003. Total
redemptions and subscriptions for the year were $11,335,344 and
$10,491,897, respectively, and the Partnership's ending capital
was $52,639,493 at December 31, 2003, an increase of $2,234,061
from ending capital at December 31, 2002 of $50,405,432.

The most significant trading gains of approximately 7.1% were
recorded in the global stock index markets by long positions in
European and U.S. stock index futures during the second quarter
as global equity prices rallied in response to positive earnings
announcements, the conclusion of the war in Iraq, and the
prospect of lower interest rates. Additional gains were recorded
from long positions in Japanese stock index futures during July
and August as prices jumped higher in response to increased
investor demand triggered by record-low Japanese government bond
yields, robust Japanese economic data and gains in the U.S.
equity markets. During the fourth quarter, further gains were
provided by long European, U.S., and Asian equity index futures
positions. The release of favorable economic data and an inflow
of investor assets into equities spurred in part by strong
U.S. manufacturing data and the strongest U.S. quarterly growth
rate in twenty years helped boost global equity prices.
Additional gains of approximately 2.5% were recorded in the
global interest rate markets, during February and May, from long
positions in European and U.S. interest rate futures as prices
trended higher amid speculation of an interest rate cut by the
U.S. Federal Reserve, lingering doubts concerning a global
economic recovery, and investor preference for fixed income
investments. Gains of approximately 1.1% in the metals markets
were experienced, primarily during October, by long futures
positions in nickel and copper as industrial metals prices
rallied in response to increased demand, especially from China,
as well as to growing investor sentiment that the global economy
was on the path to recovery. A portion of the Partnership's
overall gains for the year was offset by losses of approximately
1.2% in the agricultural markets from corn futures positions as
the price of corn was lifted higher with wheat prices during
January and then traded inconsistently during April and August
amid supply and weather-related issues. Long positions in cotton
and corn futures during November added to losses within in this
sector as the prices of those commodities reversed lower.

The Partnership recorded losses net of interest totaling
$2,566,396 and expenses totaling $3,220,522, resulting in a net
loss of $5,786,918 for the year ended December 31, 2002. The
Partnership's net asset value per Unit decreased from
$16.21 at December 31, 2001 to $14.57 at December 31, 2002.
Total redemptions and subscriptions for the year were $10,422,804
and $8,829,394, respectively, and the Partnership's ending
capital was $50,405,432 at December 31, 2002, a decrease of
$7,380,328 from ending capital at December 31, 2001 of
$57,785,760.

The most significant trading losses of approximately 14.2% were
recorded in the global stock index futures markets from long
positions in European, U.S., and Japanese stock index futures as
prices continued to weaken throughout the majority of the year,
particularly during July, September, and December, amid continued
economic uncertainty and ongoing political concerns. A portion
of the Partnership's overall losses was offset by gains of
approximately 7.4% recorded in the global interest rate futures
markets from long positions in European, Japanese, and U.S.
interest rate futures, predominantly during the third quarter, as
prices trended higher amid a shift in assets from stocks into
bonds as investors sought the safe haven of fixed income
investments. In the currency markets, during May, June, and
December, additional profits of approximately 1.3% were recorded
from long positions in the euro and Swiss franc versus the U.S.
dollar as the dollar's value weakened amid investors' fears
concerning increased global tensions, specifically the threat of
war between India and Pakistan, the looming threat of a military
strike against Iraq, and the resumption of North Korea's
nuclear program. As of August 30, 2002, the Partnership received
a settlement award payment from the Sumitomo Copper Litigation
Settlement Administrator in the amount of $233,074.

The Partnership recorded revenues including interest totaling
$3,150,268 and expenses totaling $3,302,867, resulting in a net
loss of $152,599 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The
Partnership's net asset value per Unit decreased from $16.26 at
December 31, 2000 to $16.21 at December 31, 2001. Total
redemptions and subscriptions for the year were $8,195,733 and
$10,254,342, respectively, and the Partnership's ending capital
was $57,785,760 at December 31, 2001, an increase of $1,906,010
from ending capital at December 31, 2000 of $55,879,750.

The most significant trading losses of approximately 5.2% were
recorded in the global stock index futures markets throughout a
majority of the first three quarters from long positions in FTSE
Index futures, DAX, and S&P 500 Index futures as equity prices
moved lower amid worries regarding global economic uncertainty.
In the energy markets, losses of approximately 1.4% were recorded
throughout the year from positions in crude oil futures and its
related products as a result of volatility in oil prices due to a
continually changing outlook for supply, production and demand.
A portion of the Partnership's overall losses was partially
offset by gains of approximately 5.1% recorded in the global
interest rate futures markets primarily during January
from previously established long positions in eurodollar futures
as prices moved higher due to a surprise interest rate cut by the
U.S. Federal Reserve on January 3rd and the subsequent
anticipation of an additional interest rate cut by the U.S.
Federal Reserve later in January. Throughout a majority of the
third quarter, additional profits were recorded from previously
established long positions in U.S. and European interest rate
futures as prices continued trending higher amid continued
concerns for the sluggish U.S. economy, interest rate cuts by the
U.S. and European central banks and as investors sought a safe
haven from declining stock prices. In the currency markets,
profits of approximately 2.0% were recorded throughout a majority
of the fourth quarter from previously established short positions
in the South African rand as its value trended lower relative to
the U.S. dollar as investors targeted the emerging market
currency while global economic jitters persisted.

For an analysis of unrealized gains and (losses) by contract type
and a further description of 2003 trading results, refer to the
Partnership's Annual Report to Limited Partners for the year ended
December 31, 2003, which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit
13.01 of this Form 10-K.

The Partnership's gains and losses are allocated among its
partners for income tax purposes.

Market Risk.
Financial Instruments. The Partnership is a party to financial
instruments with elements of off-balance sheet market and credit
risk. The Partnership trades futures, forwards, and options in
interest rates, stock indices, commodities, currencies, petroleum,
precious metals, and other commodity interests. In entering into
these contracts, the Partnership is subject to the market risk
that such contracts may be significantly influenced by market
conditions, such as interest rate volatility, resulting in such
contracts being less valuable. If the markets should move against
all of the positions held by the Partnership at the same time, and
if the Trading Advisor were unable to offset positions of the
Partnership, the Partnership could lose all of its assets and the
limited partners would realize a 100% loss.

In addition to the Trading Advisor's internal controls, the
Trading Advisor must comply with the Partnership's trading
policies that include standards for liquidity and leverage that
must be maintained. The Trading Advisor and Demeter monitor the
Partnership's trading activities to ensure compliance with the
trading policies and Demeter can require the Trading Advisor to
modify positions of the Partnership if Demeter believes they
violate the Partnership's trading policies.

Credit Risk.
In addition to market risk, in entering into futures, forward, and
options contracts there is a credit risk to the Partnership that
the counterparty on a contract will not be able to meet its
obligations to the Partnership. The ultimate counterparty or
guarantor of the Partnership for futures contracts traded in the
United States and the foreign exchanges on which the Partnership
trades is the clearinghouse associated with such exchange. In
general, a clearinghouse is backed by the membership of the
exchange and will act in the event of non-performance by one of
its members or one of its member's customers, which should
significantly reduce this credit risk. There is no assurance that
a clearinghouse, exchange or other exchange member will meet its
obligations to the Partnership, and Demeter and the commodity
brokers will not indemnify the Partnership against a default by
such parties. Further, the law is unclear as to whether a
commodity broker has any obligation to protect its customers from
loss in the event of an exchange or clearinghouse defaulting on
trades effected for the broker's customers. In cases where the
Partnership trades off-exchange forward contracts with a
counterparty, the sole recourse of the Partnership will be the
forward contracts counterparty.

Demeter deals with these credit risks of the Partnership in
several ways. First, it monitors the Partnership's credit
exposure to each exchange on a daily basis. The commodity brokers
inform the Partnership, as with all their customers, of its net
margin requirements for all its existing open positions and
Demeter has installed a system which permits it to monitor the
Partnership's potential net credit exposure, exchange by exchange,
by adding the unrealized trading gains on each exchange, if any,
to the Partnership's margin liability thereon.

Second, the Partnership's trading policies limit the amount of its
net assets that can be committed at any given time to futures
contracts and require a minimum amount of diversification in the
Partnership's trading, usually over several different products and
exchanges. Historically, the Partnership's exposure to any one
exchange has typically amounted to only a small percentage of its
total net assets and on those relatively few occasions where the
Partnership's credit exposure climbs above an acceptable level,
Demeter deals with the situation on a case by case basis,
carefully weighing whether the increased level of credit exposure
remains appropriate. Material changes to the trading policies may
be made only with the prior written approval of the limited
partners owning more than 50% of Units then outstanding.

Third, with respect to forward contract trading, the Partnership
trades with only those counterparties which Demeter, together with
Morgan Stanley DW, have determined to be creditworthy. The
Partnership presently deals with MS & Co. as the sole counterparty
on forward contracts.

See "Financial Instruments" under "Notes to Financial Statements"
in the Partnership's Annual Report to Limited Partners for the
year ended December 31, 2003, which is incorporated by reference
to Exhibit 13.01 of this Form 10-K.

Inflation has not been a major factor in the Partnership's
operations.

Item 7A.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Introduction
The Partnership is a commodity pool engaged primarily in the
speculative trading of futures, forwards, and options. The
market-sensitive instruments held by the Partnership are acquired
for speculative trading purposes only and, as a result, all or
substantially all of the Partnership's assets are at risk of
trading loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market-
sensitive instruments is central, not incidental, to the
Partnership's main business activities.

The futures, forwards, and options traded by the Partnership
involve varying degrees of related market risk. Market risk is
often dependent upon changes in the level or volatility of
interest rates, exchange rates, and prices of financial
instruments and commodities, factors that result in frequent
changes in the fair value of the Partnership's open positions, and
consequently in its earnings, whether realized or unrealized, and
cash flow. Profits and losses on open positions of exchange
traded futures, forwards, and options are settled daily through
variation margin.

The Partnership's total market risk may increase or decrease as
it's influenced by a wide variety of factors, including, but not
limited to, the diversification among the Partnership's open
positions, the volatility present within the markets, and the
liquidity of the markets.

The Partnership's past performance is not necessarily indicative
of its future results. Any attempt to numerically quantify the
Partnership's market risk is limited by the uncertainty of its
speculative trading. The Partnership's speculative trading may
cause future losses and volatility (i.e., "risk of ruin") that far
exceed the Partnership's experiences to date or any reasonable
expectations based upon historical changes in market value.

Quantifying the Partnership's Trading Value at Risk
The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Partner-
ship's market risk exposures contain "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability
provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934). All quantitative disclosures in this section are
deemed to be forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe
harbor, except for statements of historical fact.

The Partnership accounts for open positions on the basis of mark
to market accounting principles. Any loss in the market value of
the Partnership's open positions is directly reflected in the
Partnership's earnings and cash flow.

The Partnership's risk exposure in the market sectors traded by
the Trading Advisor is estimated below in terms of Value at Risk
("VaR"). The Partnership estimates VaR using a model based upon
historical simulation (with a confidence level of 99%) which
involves constructing a distribution of hypothetical daily changes
in the value of a trading portfolio. The VaR model takes into
account linear exposures to risk including equity and commodity
prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and correlation
among these variables. The hypothetical changes in portfolio value
are based on daily percentage changes observed in key market
indices or other market factors ("market risk factors") to which
the portfolio is sensitive. The one-day 99% confidence level of
the Partnership's VaR corresponds to the negative change in
portfolio value that, based on observed market risk factors, would
have been exceeded once in 100 trading days, or one day in 100.
VaR typically does not represent the worst case outcome.
Demeter uses approximately four years of daily market data (1,000
observations) and revalues its portfolio (using delta-gamma
approximations) for each of the historical market moves that
occurred over this time period. This generates a probability
distribution of daily "simulated profit and loss" outcomes. The
VaR is the appropriate percentile of this distribution. For
example, the 99% one-day VaR would represent the 10th worst
outcome from Demeter's simulated profit and loss series.

The Partnership's VaR computations are based on the risk
representation of the underlying benchmark for each instrument or
contract and do not distinguish between exchange and non-exchange
dealer-based instruments. They are also not based on exchange
and/or dealer-based maintenance margin requirements.

VaR models, including the Partnership's, are continuously evolving
as trading portfolios become more diverse and modeling techniques
and systems capabilities improve. Please note that the VaR model
is used to numerically quantify market risk for historic reporting
purposes only and is not utilized by either Demeter or the Trading
Advisor in their daily risk management activities. Please further
note that VaR as described above may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures used by other entities.

The Partnership's Value at Risk in Different Market
Sectors
The following table indicates the VaR associated with the
Partnership's open positions as a percentage of total net assets
by primary market risk category at December 31, 2003 and 2002. At
December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Partnership's total capitalization
was approximately $53 million and $50 million, respectively.

Primary Market December 31, 2003 December 31, 2002
Risk Category Value at Risk Value at Risk

Equity (1.43)% (0.79)%
Interest Rate (0.72) (0.91)
Currency (0.70) (0.66)
Commodity (0.19) (0.34)
Aggregate Value at Risk (1.46)% (1.37)%

The VaR for a market category represents the one-day downside risk
for the aggregate exposures associated with this market category.
The Aggregate Value at Risk listed above represents the VaR of the
Partnership's open positions across all the market categories, and
is less than the sum of the VaRs for all such market categories
due to the diversification benefit across asset classes.

Because the business of the Partnership is the speculative trading
of futures, forwards, and options, the composition of its trading
portfolio can change significantly over any given time period, or
even within a single trading day, which could positively or
negatively materially impact market risk as measured by VaR.

The table below supplements the December 31, 2003 VaR set forth
above by presenting the Partnership's high, low and average VaR,
as a percentage of total net assets for the four quarter-end
reporting periods from January 1, 2003 through December 31, 2003.

Primary Market Risk Category High Low Average
Equity (1.43)% (0.59)% (0.87)%
Interest Rate (0.84) (0.37) (0.66)
Currency (0.70) (0.19) (0.39)
Commodity (0.31) (0.10) (0.19)
Aggregate Value at Risk (1.46)% (0.76)% (1.03)%

Limitations on Value at Risk as an Assessment of Market Risk
The face value of the market sector instruments held by the
Partnership is typically many times the applicable margin
requirements. Margin requirements generally range between 2% and
15% of contract face value. Additionally, the use of leverage
causes the face value of the market sector instruments held by the
Partnership to typically be many times the total capitalization of
the Partnership. The value of the Partnership's open positions
thus creates a "risk of ruin" not typically found in other
investments. The relative size of the positions held may cause
the Partnership to incur losses greatly in excess of VaR within a
short period of time, given the effects of the leverage
employed and market volatility. The VaR tables above, as well as
the past performance of the Partnership, give no indication of
such "risk of ruin". In addition, VaR risk measures should be
viewed in light of the methodology's limitations, which include
the following:
? past changes in market risk factors will not always result in
accurate predictions of the distributions and correlations of
future market movements;
? changes in portfolio value caused by market movements may
differ from those of the VaR model;
? VaR results reflect past trading positions while future risk
depends on future positions;
? VaR using a one-day time horizon does not fully capture the
market risk of positions that cannot be liquidated or hedged
within one day; and
? the historical market risk factor data used for VaR estimation
may provide only limited insight into losses that could be
incurred under certain unusual market movements.

The VaR tables provided present the results of the Partnership's
VaR for each of the Partnership's market risk exposures and on an
aggregate basis at December 31, 2003, and 2002, and for the four
quarter-end reporting periods during calendar year 2003. VaR is
not necessarily representative of the historic risk, nor should it
be used to predict the Partnership's future financial performance
or its ability to manage or monitor risk. There can be no
assurance that the Partnership's actual losses on a particular day
will not exceed the VaR amounts indicated above or that such
losses will not occur more than once in 100 trading days.

Non-Trading Risk
The Partnership has non-trading market risk on its foreign cash
balances not needed for margin. These balances and any market
risk they may represent are immaterial.

The Partnership also maintains a substantial portion
(approximately 91% as of December 31, 2003) of its available
assets in cash at Morgan Stanley DW. A decline in short-term
interest rates would result in a decline in the Partnership's cash
management income. This cash flow risk is not considered to be
material.

Materiality, as used throughout this section, is based on an
assessment of reasonably possible market movements and any
associated potential losses, taking into account the leverage,
optionality and multiplier features of the Partnership's market-
sensitive instruments, in relation to the Partnership's net assets.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures
The following qualitative disclosures regarding the
Partnership's market risk exposures - except for (A) those
disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (B) the
descriptions of how the Partnership manages its primary market
risk exposures - constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of
the Securities Exchange Act. The Partnership's primary market risk
exposures, as well as the strategies used and to be used by
Demeter and the Trading Advisor for managing such exposures, are
subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and risks, any
one of which could cause the actual results of the Partnership's
risk controls to differ materially from the objectives of such
strategies. Government interventions, defaults and expropriations,
illiquid markets, the emergence of dominant fundamental factors,
political upheavals, changes in historical price relationships, an
influx of new market participants, increased regulation and many
other factors could result in material losses, as well as in
material changes to the risk exposures and the risk management
strategies of the Partnership. Investors must be prepared to lose
all or substantially all of their investment in the Partnership.

The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the
Partnership at December 31, 2003, by market sector. It may be
anticipated, however, that these market exposures will vary
materially over time.

Equity. The largest market exposure of the Partnership at
December 31, 2003 was to the global stock index sector, primarily
equity price risk in the G-7 countries. The G-7 countries consist
of France, the U.S., Britain, Germany, Japan, Italy, and Canada.
The stock index futures traded by the Partnership are by law
limited to futures on broadly-based indices. At December 31,
2003, the Partnership's primary exposures were to the DAX
(Germany), S&P 500 (U.S.), FTSE (Britain), and Nikkei (Japan)
stock indices. The Partnership is primarily exposed to the risk
of adverse price trends or static markets in the U.S., European,
and Japanese stock indices. Static markets would not cause major
market changes, but would make it difficult for the Partnership to
avoid trendless price movements resulting in numerous small
losses.

Interest Rate. The second largest market exposure of the
Partnership at December 31, 2003, was to the global interest rate
complex. Exposure was primarily spread across the European,
Australian, Japanese, and U.S. interest rate sectors. Interest
rate movements directly affect the price of the sovereign bond
futures positions held by the Partnership and indirectly affect
the value of its stock index and currency positions. Interest
rate movements in one country, as well as relative interest rate
movements between countries, materially impact the Partnership's
profitability. The Partnership's interest rate exposure is
generally to interest rate fluctuations in the U.S. and the other
G-7 countries. However, the Partnership also takes
futures positions in the government debt of smaller nations -
e.g., Australia. Demeter anticipates that G-7 countries and
Australian interest rates will remain the primary interest rate
exposure of the Partnership for the foreseeable future. The
speculative futures positions held by the Partnership may range
from short to long-term instruments. Consequently, changes in
short, medium or long-term interest rates may have an effect on
the Partnership.

Currency. The third largest market exposure of the Partnership
at December 31, 2003 was to exchange rate fluctuations, primarily
fluctuations which disrupt the historical pricing relationships
between different currencies and currency pairs. Interest rate
changes as well as political and general economic conditions
influence these fluctuations. The Partnership trades a large
number of currencies, including cross-rates - i.e., positions
between two currencies other than the U.S. dollar. At December
31, 2003, the Partnership's major exposures were to the euro
Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, Swiss franc, and Japanese yen
currency crosses, as well as outright U.S. dollar positions.
Outright positions consist of the U.S. dollar vs. other
currencies. These other currencies include major and minor
currencies. Demeter does not anticipate that the risk profile of
the Partnership's currency sector will change significantly in
the future. The currency trading VaR figure includes foreign
margin amounts converted into U.S. dollars with an
incremental adjustment to reflect the exchange rate risk inherent
to the U.S.-based Partnership in expressing VaR in a functional
currency other than U.S. dollars.

Commodity.
Energy. At December 31, 2003, the Partnership's energy
exposure was primarily to futures contracts in crude oil.
Price movements in the energy markets result from
geopolitical developments, particularly in the Middle East,
as well as weather patterns and other economic fundamentals.
Significant profits and losses, which have been experienced
in the past, are expected to continue to be experienced in
the future.

Metals. The Partnership's metals exposure at December 31,
2003 was to fluctuations in the price of base metals such as
copper and nickel. Economic forces, supply and demand
inequalities, geopolitical factors and market expectations
influence price movements in these markets. The Trading
Advisor, from time to time, takes positions when market
opportunities develop, and Demeter anticipates that the
Partnership will continue to do so.

Soft Commodities and Agriculturals. At December 31, 2003,
the Partnership had exposure to the markets that comprise
these sectors. Most of the exposure was to the
cotton and corn markets. Supply and demand inequalities,
severe weather disruptions and market expectations affect
price movements in these markets.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure
The following was the only non-trading risk exposure of the
Partnership at December 31, 2003:

Foreign Currency Balances. The Partnership's primary
foreign currency balances at December 31, 2003 were in
euros, Japanese yen, Canadian dollars, and Swiss francs.
The Partnership controls the non-trading risk of foreign
currency balances by regularly converting them back into
U.S. dollars upon liquidation of their respective positions.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure
The Partnership and the Trading Advisor, separately, attempt to
manage the risk of the Partnership's open positions in essentially
the same manner in all market categories traded. Demeter attempts
to manage market exposure by diversifying the Partnership's assets
among different market sectors and trading approaches, and by
monitoring the performance of the Trading Advisor daily. In
addition, the Trading Advisor establishes diversification
guidelines, often set in terms of the maximum margin to be
committed to positions in any one market sector or market-
sensitive instrument.

Demeter monitors and controls the risk of the Partnership's non-
trading instrument, cash. Cash is the only Partnership investment
directed by Demeter, rather than the Trading Advisor.

Australian dollar 8.68%
British pound -2.43%
Euro 12.03%
Japanese yen 0.14%
Swiss franc -2.31%
Minor currencies 4.76%

African rand, Thai baht, Greek drachma, Singapore dollar, Mexican peso,
New Zealand dollar and Norwegian krone.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS:
.. The most significant gains were recorded from long positions in the euro
versus the U.S. dollar as the dollar's value weakened throughout a majority
of the year. Fears of a military conflict with Iraq, skepticism regarding
the likelihood of a U.S. economic recovery and fears of a potential
terrorist attack resulted in gains from long euro positions during January,
April, and May. A confluence of factors during December including concerns
regarding U.S. budget and trade deficits, a dip in consumer confidence, an
outbreak of Mad Cow Disease in the U.S., and continued fears of a potential
terrorist attack forced the U.S. dollar to retreat further and the euro to
climb.
.. Additional gains resulted from long positions in the Australian dollar
versus the U.S. dollar during April, May, and June and again during November
and December as the Australian currency strengthened in response to
continued weakness in the U.S. dollar, higher interest rates in Australia
relative to those in the U.S. and higher gold prices.
.. Profits were also provided by long positions in the South African rand
versus the U.S. dollar during April and December due to significant interest
rate differentials between

the two countries, economic concerns regarding U.S. budget and trade
deficits and fears of a potential terrorist attack. Smaller profits were
experienced from long positions in the New Zealand dollar versus the U.S.
dollar primarily during November as the U.S. dollar's value tumbled to a
six-year low versus the New Zealand currency.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES:
.. Losses were recorded by positions in the British pound versus the U.S.
dollar as the value of the pound strengthened during April and May on
expectations that the Bank of England would likely leave interest rates
unchanged and upon the release of lower-than-expected unemployment data from
Great Britain. During June, losses stemmed from positions in the pound
versus the U.S. dollar as the pound's value increased early in the month,
amid expectations that the Bank of England would likely leave interest rates
unchanged, and then reversed lower, after the British Finance Minister
released positive comments regarding the U.K.'s entry prospects into the
European Union.
.. Additional losses resulted from short positions in the Swiss franc versus
the U.S. dollar during September as the dollar's value declined amid
concerns about the strength of the U.S. economy and the potential impact of
a statement by the G-7 nations supporting "more flexible exchange rates."
The G-7 countries consist of France, the U.S., Britain, Germany, Japan,
Italy, and Canada.

Energies 0.50%

Note:Reflects trading results only and does not include fees or interest income.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS:
.. In the global stock index futures markets, gains were recorded by long
positions in European and U.S. stock index futures. During the second
quarter, global equity prices rallied in response to positive earnings
announcements, the conclusion of the war in Iraq, and the prospect of lower
interest rates. Additional gains were recorded from long positions in
Japanese stock index futures during July and August as prices jumped higher
in response to increased investor demand triggered by record-low Japanese
government bond yields, robust Japanese economic data and gains in the U.S.
equity markets. During the fourth quarter, further gains were provided by
long European, U.S., and Asian equity index futures positions. The release
of favorable economic data and an inflow of investor assets into equities
spurred in part by strong U.S. manufacturing data and the strongest U.S.
quarterly growth rate in twenty years helped boost global equity prices.
.. Additional gains were generated in the global interest rate markets. During
February and May, long positions in European and U.S. interest rate futures
profited as prices trended higher amid speculation of an interest rate cut
by the U.S. Federal Reserve, lingering doubts concerning a global economic
recovery, and investor preference for fixed income investments.

.. In the metals markets, smaller gains were experienced, primarily during
October, by long futures positions in nickel and copper as industrial metals
prices rallied in response to increased demand, especially from China, as
well as to growing investor sentiment that the global economy was on the
path to recovery.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES:
.. Losses were recorded in the agricultural sector. Corn futures positions
incurred losses as the price of corn was lifted higher with wheat prices
during January and then traded inconsistently during April and August amid
supply and weather-related issues. Long positions in cotton and corn futures
during November added to losses within in this sector as the prices of those
commodities reversed lower.

Note:Reflects trading results only and does not include fees or interest income.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS:
.. The most significant gains were recorded in the currency markets. During
January, long positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar profited as the
value of the European currency strengthened against the U.S. dollar amid
renewed fears of a military conflict with Iraq, increased tensions with
North Korea, and weak U.S. economic data. During May, gains were supplied by
long positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the euro
strengthened amid uncertainty regarding the Bush Administration's economic
policy, renewed fears of potential terrorist attacks against American
interests, and investor preference for non-U.S. dollar assets. Additional
currency gains were recorded by long positions in the Australian dollar
versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the Australian currency strengthened
in response to continued weakness in the U.S. currency, rising gold prices
and relatively high interest rates in Australia. During November and
December, long positions in the euro, British pound, and Australian and New
Zealand dollars versus the U.S. dollar generated additional gains. The U.S.
dollar tumbled to a six-year low against the Australian and New Zealand
dollar and a five-year low against the British pound. Additionally, the euro
soared past the $1.20 mark, its highest level against the U.S. dollar since
its introduction in January 1999. The U.S. dollar's weakness was caused by a
variety of factors, including concerns regarding the growing U.S. current
trade account and budget deficits, the Federal Reserve's policy of

maintaining low interest rates, widening interest rate differentials
relative to other countries, and renewed fears of global terrorism.
.. In the metals markets, gains were achieved primarily during the fourth
quarter by long futures positions in copper and nickel. Industrial metals
prices rallied during October in response to increased demand, especially
from China, as well as to growing investor sentiment that the global economy
was on the path to recovery. During December, copper and nickel prices rose
to six and fourteen year highs respectively, benefiting from increased
demand from China and the strengthening of the global economy.
.. Gains were also supplied by the global stock index markets. Long positions
in Asian stock index futures returned gains during August as Asian equity
prices drew strength from robust Japanese economic data and rising prices in
the U.S. equity markets. Long U.S. equity index futures positions also
profited after the release of favorable economic data during October, as
well as in December.
.. In the agricultural markets, smaller gains resulted from long futures
positions in soybeans and its related products during September as prices
reacted positively in response to robust U.S. export sales data and smaller
U.S. crop assessments. Then in October, long futures positions in cotton and
soybeans generated gains as increased demand from China and tight market
supplies lifted prices.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES:
.. In the global interest rate markets, losses were incurred primarily during
the last four months of the year. The Fund experienced losses from short
European futures positions. Prices reversed higher amid investor demand for
safe haven investments following renewed volatility in global equity
markets, continued geopolitical instability in the Middle East and comments
from the U.S. Federal Reserve regarding the continuation of low U.S.
interest rates.
.. Additional losses stemmed from the energy sector. Long positions in crude
oil futures resulted in losses during March as prices reversed sharply lower
amid market anticipation of a swift military victory for Coalition forces
against Iraq. During September, losses were suffered from short positions in
crude oil futures as prices unexpectedly reversed higher following OPEC's
announcement for output reductions and curbs in production. During October,
short crude oil positions experienced further losses as prices moved higher
in response to supply fears spurred by Middle East tensions early in the
month, as well as strike threats in Nigeria, one of the world's major oil
producers.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS:
.. The most significant gains were recorded in the currency markets, primarily
during September, from long euro positions against the U.S. dollar. The
dollar's weakness was caused by concerns about the strength of the U.S.
economy and the potential impact of a statement by the G-7 countries
supporting "more flexible exchange rates." The G-7 countries consist of
France, the U.S., Britain, Germany, Japan, Italy, and Canada. The G-7's
statement was viewed as part of an effort by the Bush Administration to
allow the dollar to weaken against its counterparts. The dollar tumbled
during the month, falling to three-month lows against the euro. During May,
long positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar generated gains as the
value of the euro strengthened amid uncertainty regarding the Bush
Administration's economic policy, renewed fears of potential terrorist
attacks against American interests, and investor preference for non-U.S.
dollar assets. Additional gains were recorded from long positions in the
Australian dollar versus the U.S. dollar as its value strengthened during
January, April, and May in response to continued weakness in the U.S.
dollar, rising commodity prices and higher interest rates in Australia
relative to those in the U.S.
.. Gains were also experienced in the metals markets from long futures
positions in nickel, copper, and zinc. Base metals prices climbed higher
during January following the release of positive U.S. manufacturing data and
continued supply and

demand concerns. Long futures positions in nickel and copper provided
further gains in this sector as prices trended higher during July amid
renewed optimism concerning a U.S. economic recovery and hopes for increased
industrial production. During the fourth quarter, prices rallied during
October in response to growing investor sentiment that the global economy
was on the path to recovery and increased demand, especially from China.
During December, nickel and copper prices rose to fourteen and six-year
highs respectively, benefiting from increased demand from China and the
strengthening of the global economy.
.. Additional profits were achieved in the agricultural markets. During
January, long positions in sugar futures yielded gains as prices rose amid
speculative buying ahead of the Brazilian harvest. Gains were also provided
from long positions in cocoa futures during August as prices rallied amid
short-covering, tight U.S. cocoa reserves and dry weather in the Ivory
Coast, the world's top cocoa producer. Cocoa prices rallied again during the
first two weeks of December in response to political developments in the
Ivory Coast, thereby, generating profits for long cocoa positions.
Meanwhile, long futures positions in cotton benefited as prices rallied to
their highest level in seven years during December following an increase in
export orders from China. Further gains in the agricultural sector stemmed
from long futures positions in soybeans and cotton during April as increased
demand from China and tight market supplies lifted prices. Rough rice
futures positions profited during April as prices rose in response to the
Iraqi war and the potential for increased Iraqi demand after the war.
.. In the global stock index markets, gains were contributed during May and
June from long positions in U.S. and European stock index futures as prices
moved higher amid increased optimism regarding the U.S. economic recovery
and a rise in investor sentiment. Long positions in Japanese stock index
futures also returned gains as Japanese equity markets tracked gains in
global stock indices during September. During December, the Fund generated
gains from long U.S. and European stock index futures positions as strong
U.S. manufacturing data and the strongest U.S. quarterly growth rate in
twenty years resulted in higher prices.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES:
.. Losses were incurred in the energy markets, primarily during May, from short
positions in crude oil futures and its related products as prices moved
higher amid supply concerns and renewed fears concerning security at Middle
Eastern refining facilities. Long positions in natural gas futures
experienced losses during June as prices reversed sharply lower following
news of larger-than-expected U.S. reserves.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS:
.. The most significant gains were recorded in the currency markets. Long
positions in the euro profited as its value rose versus the U.S. dollar
during January amid renewed fears of a military conflict with Iraq,
increased tensions with North Korea, and weak U.S. economic data. During
May, additional gains were recorded as the value of the euro strengthened
due to uncertainty regarding the Bush Administration's economic policy,
renewed fears of potential terrorist attacks against American interests and
investor preference for non-U.S. dollar assets. Gains were also recorded
during April by long positions in the Australian dollar versus the U.S.
dollar as the Australian currency strengthened in response to continued
weakness in the U.S. dollar, rising commodity prices and significant
interest rate differentials between the two countries. The strongest gains
in the currency sector were recorded during the fourth quarter, particularly
during December, by long positions in a broad range of major and minor
currencies versus the U.S. dollar. Profits accumulated as the U.S. dollar
tumbled to a six-year low against the Australian and New Zealand dollars and
a five-year low against the British pound. Additionally, the euro soared
past the $1.20 mark, its highest level against the U.S. dollar since its
introduction in January 1999. The U.S. dollar's weakness was caused by a
variety of factors, including concerns regarding the growing U.S. current
trade account

and budget deficits, the Federal Reserve's policy of maintaining low
interest rates, widening interest rate differentials relative to other
countries, and renewed fears of global terrorism.
.. Additional gains were recorded in the global stock index markets from long
positions in Japanese stock index futures during July and August as prices
trended higher in response to increased investor demand triggered by
record-low Japanese government bond yields and robust Japanese economic
data. Gains were also contributed during July and August by long positions
in U.S. stock index futures as prices were buoyed by a rise in investor
sentiment and tangible signs of a U.S. economic recovery. During the fourth
quarter, additional gains were achieved on long European, U.S. and Asian
equity index futures positions. The release of favorable economic data and
an inflow of investor assets into equities helped boost prices.
.. In the metals markets, gains were produced, primarily during the fourth
quarter, from long futures positions in base and precious metals. Long
futures positions in copper, nickel, and aluminum profited as industrial
metals prices rallied in response to growing investor confidence in the
global economy and increased demand, especially from China. Meanwhile, gold
and silver climbed higher during December as investors sought a safe haven
from the falling U.S. dollar and an increased risk of terrorism.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES:
.. Losses stemmed from the agricultural markets. Short futures positions in
coffee suffered losses as prices reversed higher in early September due to
supply fears prompted by reduced estimates for world coffee production.
Additional losses were experienced from long positions in lean hog futures
during June as prices declined in response to a potential outbreak of Mad
Cow Disease. During October, short futures positions in corn also incurred
losses as prices reversed higher in response to news of decreased supply.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION. Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency L.P. ("Spectrum Currency"),
Morgan Stanley Spectrum Global Balanced L.P. ("Spectrum Global Balanced"),
Morgan Stanley Spectrum Select L.P. ("Spectrum Select"), Morgan Stanley
Spectrum Strategic L.P. ("Spectrum Strategic") and Morgan Stanley Spectrum
Technical L.P. ("Spectrum Technical") (individually, a "Partnership," or
collectively, the "Partnerships"), are limited partnerships organized to engage
in the speculative trading of futures contracts, options on futures contracts,
and forward contracts on physical commodities and other commodity interests,
including, but not limited to, foreign currencies, financial instruments,
metals, energy and agricultural products (collectively, "futures interests").
The Partnerships' general partner is Demeter Management Corporation
("Demeter"). The non-clearing commodity broker is Morgan Stanley DW Inc.
("Morgan Stanley DW"). The clearing commodity brokers for Spectrum Global
Balanced, Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic and Spectrum Technical are
Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("MS&Co.") and Morgan Stanley & Co.
International Limited ("MSIL"). Spectrum Currency's clearing commodity broker
is MS&Co. Demeter, Morgan Stanley DW, MS&Co., and MSIL are wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Morgan Stanley.
On April 2, 2001, Dean Witter Reynolds Inc. changed its name to Morgan
Stanley DW Inc.
On November 1, 2001, the Partnerships were renamed Morgan Stanley Spectrum
Currency L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Global Balanced L.P., Morgan Stanley
Spectrum Select L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Strategic L.P. and Morgan Stanley
Spectrum Technical L.P.
On June 20, 2002, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co. changed its name to Morgan
Stanley.
Demeter is required to maintain a 1% minimum interest in the equity of each
Partnership and income (losses) are shared by Demeter and the limited partners
based upon their proportional ownership interests.

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

USE OF ESTIMATES. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which
require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts in the financial statements and related disclosures. Management
believes that the estimates utilized in the preparation of the financial
statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

REVENUE RECOGNITION. Futures interests are open commitments until settlement
date. They are valued at market on a daily basis and the resulting net change
in unrealized gains and losses is reflected in the change in unrealized profit
(loss) on open contracts from one period to the next in the statements of
operations. Monthly, Morgan Stanley DW pays each Partnership interest income
based upon 80% of the month's average daily "Net Assets" (as defined in the
Limited Partnership Agreements) in the case of Spectrum Currency, Spectrum
Select, Spectrum Strategic and Spectrum Technical, and on 100% in the case of
Spectrum Global Balanced. The interest rate is equal to a prevailing rate on
U.S. Treasury bills. For purposes of such interest payments, Net Assets do not
include monies owed to the Partnerships on futures interests.

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER UNIT. Net income (loss) per unit of limited partnership
interest ("Unit(s)") is computed using the weighted average number of Units
outstanding during the period.

CONDENSED SCHEDULES OF INVESTMENTS. In March 2001, the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants' Accounting Standards Executive Committee ("AICPA
Executive Committee") issued Statement of Position 01-1 ("SOP 01-1") "Amendment
to the Scope of Statement of Position 95-2, Financial Reporting By Nonpublic
Investment Partnerships, to Include Commodity Pools". SOP 01-1 required
commodity pools to include a condensed schedule of investments identifying
those investments which constitute more than 5% of Net Assets, taking long and
short positions into account separately, beginning in fiscal years ending after
December 15, 2001.

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)

In December 2003, the AICPA Executive Committee issued Statement of Position
03-4 ("SOP 03-4") "Reporting Financial Highlights and Schedule of Investments
by Nonregistered Investment Partnerships: An Amendment to the Audit and
Accounting Guide Audits Of Investment Companies and AICPA Statement of Position
95-2, Financial Reporting By Nonpublic Investment Partnerships". SOP 03-4
requires commodity pools to disclose on the Schedule of Investments the number
of contracts, the contracts' expiration dates and the cumulative unrealized
gains/(losses) on open futures contracts, when the cumulative unrealized
gains/(losses) on an open futures contract exceeds 5% of Net Assets, taking
long and short positions into account separately. SOP 03-4 also requires ratios
for expenses and net income/(losses) based on average net assets to be
disclosed in Financial Highlights. SOP 03-4 is effective for fiscal years
ending after December 15, 2003.

EQUITY IN FUTURES INTERESTS TRADING ACCOUNTS. The Partnerships' asset "Equity
in futures interests trading accounts," reflected on the statements of
financial condition, consists of (A) cash on deposit with Morgan Stanley DW,
MS&Co. and MSIL for Spectrum Global Balanced, Spectrum Select, Spectrum
Strategic and Spectrum Technical, and Morgan Stanley DW and MS&Co. for Spectrum
Currency, to be used as margin for trading; (B) net unrealized gains or losses
on open contracts, which are valued at market and calculated as the difference
between original contract value and market value, and (C) net option premiums,
which represent the net of all monies paid and/or received for such option
premiums.
The Partnerships, in their normal course of business, enter into various
contracts with MS&Co. and/or MSIL acting as their commodity brokers. Pursuant
to brokerage agreements with MS&Co. and/or MSIL, to the extent that such
trading results in unrealized gains or losses, these amounts are offset and
reported on a net basis on the Partnerships' statements of financial condition.
The Partnerships have offset the fair value amounts recognized for forward
contracts executed with the

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)

same counterparty as allowable under the terms of their master netting
agreements with MS&Co., the sole counterparty on such contracts. The
Partnerships have consistently applied their right to offset.

BROKERAGE AND RELATED TRANSACTION FEES AND COSTS. The brokerage fees for
Spectrum Currency and Spectrum Global Balanced are accrued at a flat monthly
rate of 1/12 of 4.6% (a 4.6% annual rate) of Net Assets as of the first day of
each month.
Brokerage fees for Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic and Spectrum Technical
are accrued at a flat monthly rate of 1/12 of 7.25% (a 7.25% annual rate) of
Net Assets as of the first day of each month.
Such brokerage fees currently cover all brokerage commissions, transaction
fees and costs, and ordinary administrative and continuing offering expenses.

OPERATING EXPENSES. The Partnerships incur monthly management fees and may
incur incentive fees. All common administrative and continuing offering
expenses including legal, auditing, accounting, filing fees and other related
expenses are borne by Morgan Stanley DW through the brokerage fees paid by the
Partnerships.

INCOME TAXES. No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying
financial statements, as partners are individually responsible for reporting
income or loss based upon their respective share of each Partnership's revenues
and expenses for income tax purposes.

DISTRIBUTIONS. Distributions, other than redemptions of Units, are made on a
pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of Demeter. No distributions have been
made to date.

CONTINUING OFFERING. Units of each Partnership are offered at a price equal to
100% of the Net Asset Value per Unit as of the close of business on the last
day of each month. No selling commissions or charges related to the continuing
offering of Units are paid by the limited partners or the Partnerships. Morgan
Stanley DW pays all such costs.

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)

REDEMPTIONS. Limited partners may redeem some or all of their Units at 100% of
the Net Asset Value per Unit as of the end of the last day of any month that is
at least six months after the closing at which a person becomes a limited
partner, upon five business days advance notice by redemption form to Demeter.
Thereafter, Units redeemed on or prior to the last day of the twelfth month
after such Units were purchased will be subject to a redemption charge equal to
2% of the Net Asset Value of a Unit on the date of such redemption. Units
redeemed after the last day of the twelfth month and on or prior to the last
day of the twenty-fourth month after which such Units were purchased will be
subject to a redemption charge equal to 1% of the Net Asset Value of a Unit on
the date of such redemption. Units redeemed after the last day of the
twenty-fourth month after which such Units were purchased will not be subject
to a redemption charge. The foregoing redemption charges are paid to Morgan
Stanley DW. Redemptions must be made in whole Units, in a minimum amount of 50
Units, unless a limited partner is redeeming his entire interest in a
Partnership.

EXCHANGES. On the last day of the first month which occurs more than six
months after a person first becomes a limited partner in any of the
Partnerships, and at the end of each month thereafter, limited partners may
exchange their investment among the Partnerships (subject to certain
restrictions outlined in the Limited Partnership Agreements) without paying
additional charges.

DISSOLUTION OF THE PARTNERSHIPS. Spectrum Currency, Spectrum Global Balanced,
Spectrum Strategic and Spectrum Technical will terminate on December 31, 2035
and Spectrum Select will terminate on December 31, 2025, regardless of
financial condition at such time, or at an earlier date if certain conditions
occur as defined in each Partnership's Limited Partnership Agreement.

LITIGATION SETTLEMENT. On February 27, 2002, Spectrum Global Balanced,
Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic and Spectrum Technical received notification

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES

MANAGEMENT FEE. The management fee for Spectrum Currency is accrued at the
rate of 1/12 of 2% per month of Net Assets allocated to each trading advisor
on the first day of each month (a 2% annual rate).

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)

The management fee for Spectrum Technical is accrued at the rate of 1/12 of
2% per month of Net Assets allocated to JWH on the first day of each month,
1/12 of 3% per month of Net Assets allocated to Campbell on the first day of
each month and 1/12 of 3% per month of Net Assets allocated to Chesapeake on

to May 1, 2002, the management fee for Chesapeake was accrued at a rate of
1/12 of 4% per month of Net Assets on the first day of each month (a 4% annual
rate).

INCENTIVE FEE. Spectrum Currency pays a monthly incentive fee equal to 20% of
the trading profits experienced with respect to each trading advisor's
allocated Net Assets as of the end of each calendar month.
Spectrum Global Balanced, Spectrum Select and Spectrum Strategic each pay a
monthly incentive fee equal to 15% of the trading profits experienced with
respect to each trading advisor's allocated Net Assets as of the end of each
calendar month.

profits experienced with respect to the Net Assets allocated to Campbell and

For all Partnerships with trading losses, no incentive fee is paid in
subsequent months until all such losses are recovered. Cumulative trading
losses are adjusted on a pro-rata basis for the net amount of each month's
subscriptions and redemptions.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Partnerships trade futures contracts, options on futures contracts, and
forward contracts on physical commodities and other commodity interests,
including, but not limited to foreign currencies, financial instru-

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)

ments, metals, energy and agricultural products. Futures and forwards represent
contracts for delayed delivery of an instrument at a specified date and price.
Risk arises from changes in the value of these contracts and the potential
inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of the contracts. There
are numerous factors which may significantly influence the market value of
these contracts, including interest rate volatility.
The market value of contracts is based on closing prices quoted by the
exchange, bank or clearing firm through which the contracts are traded.
The Partnerships' contracts are accounted for on a trade-date basis and
marked to market on a daily basis. The Partnerships account for their
derivative investments in accordance with the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 133 defines a derivative as
a financial instrument or other contract that has all three of the following
characteristics:

(1) One or more underlying notional amounts or payment provisions;

(2) Requires no initial net investment or a smaller initial net investment than
would be required relative to changes in market factors;

(3) Terms require or permit net settlement.

Generally, derivatives include futures, forward, swaps or options contracts
and other financial instruments with similar characteristics such as caps,
floors and collars.
The net unrealized gains on open contracts at December 31, reported as a
component of "Equity in futures interests trading accounts" on the statements
of financial condition, and their longest contract maturities were as follows:

The Partnerships have credit risk associated with counterparty
nonperformance. The credit risk associated with the instruments in which the
Partnerships are involved is limited to the amounts reflected in the
Partnerships' statements of financial condition.
The Partnerships also have credit risk because Morgan Stanley DW, MS&Co.
and/or MSIL act as the futures commission merchants or the counterparties, with
respect to most of the Partnerships' assets.

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)

Exchange-traded futures and futures-styled options contracts are marked to
market on a daily basis, with variations in value settled on a daily basis.
Morgan Stanley DW, MS&Co. and/or MSIL, each as a futures commission merchant
for each Partnership's exchange-traded futures and futures-styled options
contracts, are required, pursuant to regulations of the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission, to segregate from their own assets, and for the sole
benefit of their commodity customers, all funds held by them with respect to
exchange-traded futures and futures-styled options contracts, including an
amount equal to the net unrealized gains on all open futures and futures-styled
options contracts, which funds, in the aggregate, totaled at December 31, 2003
and 2002 respectively, $52,809,135 and $50,047,775 for Spectrum Global
Balanced, $430,286,177 and $287,140,004 for Spectrum Select, $116,752,753 and
$74,612,644 for Spectrum Strategic and $517,752,016 and $326,385,223 for
Spectrum Technical. With respect to the Partnerships' off-exchange-traded
forward currency contracts, there are no daily exchange-related settlements of
variations in value nor is there any requirement that an amount equal to the
net unrealized gains on open forward contracts be segregated, however, MS&Co.
and Morgan Stanley DW will make daily settlements of losses as needed. With
respect to those off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts, the
Partnerships are at risk to the ability of MS&Co., the sole counterparty on all
such contracts, to perform. Each Partnership has a netting agreement with
MS&Co. These agreements, which seek to reduce both the Partnerships' and
MS&Co.'s exposure on off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts, should
materially decrease the Partnerships' credit risk in the event of MS&Co.'s
bankruptcy or insolvency.
