THE WEISS FUND [WEISS FUND LOGO] WEISS TREASURY ONLY MONEY MARKET FUND SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED) WES0806 THE WEISS FUND A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT June 30, 2006 Dear Shareholder, Before offering our outlook on the interest rate environment and sharing with you the progress we've made during the six months ended June 30, 2006, I'd like to thank you for your continued confidence and investment in The Weiss Fund. Your support is the driving force behind our desire to provide consistent performance in The Weiss Fund. Over the past 6 months, the Federal Reserve continued their policy of gradually raising short-term interest rates in order to curb inflation. With core inflation rising at a 2.6% annual rate through June 2006(1), it seems that the Fed wants to make sure that inflation does not head much higher. Indeed, current levels are arguably already above the Fed's comfort zone, as seen by Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's statement to the Senate Banking Committee in July that the recent rise in inflation "is of concern." The good news is that inflation is a lagging indicator and with the economy showing clear signs of slowing, in our view inflation will likely peak in the months ahead. Under this scenario, we expect future interest rate increases to become less likely; and as always we will continue to closely monitor the actions of the Federal Reserve. The Fed's decision to raise short-term interest rates caused a predictable increase in yields of short-maturity securities as they tend to be most directly influenced by changes in the Fed Funds rate. As inflation and inflation expectations increased, long-term interest rates also headed higher during the first six months of 2006. Fortunately, the performance on your Treasury Only Money Market Fund is not affected by the gyrations of long-term interest rates. The Fund invests in short maturities- US Treasury Bills- and must maintain an average weighted maturity of 90 days or less at all times. As short-term rates continued to move higher, the Fund returned 1.92% through the first six months of 2006. Our policy of keeping the average weighted maturity low in the face of rising short-term interest rates with regards to the management of your Fund continued throughout the first half of the year. This policy has served us well as the Federal Reserve has raised short-term interest rates at every single meeting since June 2004. Keeping the Fund's average weighted maturity low has allowed us the flexibility to quickly invest maturities at higher yields as they became available. As we head into the second half of 2006, with economic growth likely cooling and inflation expectations likely peaking in the months ahead, the Fed will likely not need to become much more restrictive. As such, we will attempt to gradually lengthen the average weighted maturity of the fund in order to lock in these relatively attractive interest rate levels for a longer period of time. - --------------- (1) Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics; The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers Less Food and Energy As always we will do our best to continue to provide consistent performance in order to reward your commitment and trust. Should you have any questions about The Weiss Fund, please call a Fund representative at 1-800-430-9617. Sincerely, /s/ Sharon A. Parker-Daniels Sharon A. Parker-Daniels President The Weiss Fund THE WEISS FUND FUND EXPENSE EXAMPLES As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2006. ACTUAL EXPENSES The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use the information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. <Table> <Caption> BEGINNING ENDING EXPENSES PAID ACCOUNT VALUE ACCOUNT VALUE DURING PERIOD* 1/1/06 6/30/06 1/01/06-6/30/06 ------------- ------------- --------------- Actual........................................ $1,000 $1,019.20 $3.40 Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)...... $1,000 $1,021.42 $3.41 </Table> - ------------ * Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 0.68% multiplied by the average account value of over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). 1 THE WEISS FUND PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS The SEC adopted a requirement that all funds present their categories of portfolio holdings in a table, chart or graph format in their annual and semi-annual shareholder reports, whether or not a schedule of investments is utilized.

FUND ORGANIZATION The Weiss Fund (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on August 10, 1995 as Weiss Treasury Fund. The Trust is a series fund that is authorized to issue shares of beneficial interest in the Weiss Treasury Only Money Market Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund commenced operations on June 28, 1996. The Board of Trustees of the Trust oversees the business affairs of the Trust and is responsible for significant decisions relating to the Fund's investment objectives and policies. The Trustees delegate the day-to-day management of the Fund to the officers of the Trust. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Portfolio Valuation: The Fund's securities are valued at amortized cost. Amortized cost valuation involves valuing an instrument at its cost initially and, thereafter, assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any applicable discount or premium. Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Interest income, including the accretion of discount and amortization of premium, is accrued daily. The Fund's expenses are also accrued daily. Net investment income for the Fund consists of all interest income accrued on the Fund's assets, less accrued expenses. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders: Dividends from the Fund's net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. The Fund intends to pay accrued dividends on the last business day of each month. The Fund may make an additional distribution of income and gains if necessary to satisfy a calendar year excise tax distribution requirement. The tax character of all distributions paid during 2006 and 2005 was ordinary income. Federal Income Taxes: The Fund is classified as a separate taxable entity for Federal income tax purposes. The Fund intends to qualify as a "regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code and make the requisite distributions to its shareholders that will be sufficient to relieve it from Federal income tax and Federal excise tax. Therefore, no Federal tax provision is required. Net investment income and short-term capital gains, if any, are taxed as ordinary income. Income and capital gains of the Fund are determined in accordance with both tax regulations and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Such determinations 8 THE WEISS FUND NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED) may result in temporary and permanent differences between tax basis earnings and earnings reported for financial statement purposes. These reclassifications, which have no impact on the net asset value of the Fund, are primarily attributable to certain differences in computation of distributable income and capital gains. Repurchase Agreements: The Fund may agree to purchase money market instruments subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date and price. The seller, under a repurchase agreement, will be required on a daily basis to maintain the value of the securities subject to the agreement at no less than the repurchase price. In connection therewith, the Trust's Custodian receives and holds collateral of not less than 100.5% of the repurchase price plus accrued interest. If the value of the collateral falls below this amount, the Trust will require the seller to deposit additional collateral. 3. INVESTMENT MANAGER, DISTRIBUTOR, ADMINISTRATOR, AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Weiss Capital Management, Inc. (the "Manager") serves as the Investment Manager to the Fund. Under an investment advisory agreement with the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, the Manager provides continuous advice and recommendations concerning the Fund's investments. To compensate the Manager for its services, the Fund agreed to pay monthly a fee at the annual rate of 0.50% of average daily net assets. The Manager may from time to time waive all or a portion of its fees payable by the Fund. Certain officers of the Manager serve as President, Secretary, Treasurer and Trustee to the Trust. Delray Financial Corporation ("Delray"), has been retained by the Manager to provide sub-advisory services to the Fund. Under a subadvisory agreement with the Manager, Delray renders continuous investment advice to the Manager as to the investment of the Fund's assets. However, the Manager is responsible for implementing the execution of transactions recommended by Delray in the exercise of the Manager's independent judgment regarding the appropriateness of Delray's investment recommendations for the Fund in accordance with its investment objectives, policies and restrictions. The Manager pays Delray a fee out of the investment advisory fees it receives from the Fund. Weiss Capital Securities, Inc. (the "Distributor"), a registered broker-dealer and wholly owned subsidiary of the Manager, serves as the Trust's Distributor. PFPC Inc. ("PFPC"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of PNC Bank, serves as the Trust's Administrator and, in that capacity, performs various administrative and accounting services for the Fund. PFPC also serves as the Trust's Transfer Agent, dividend disbursing agent and registrar. PFPC Trust Company serves as the Custodian for the Fund's portfolio securities and cash. An officer of PFPC serves as Assistant Treasurer of the Trust. For the period ended June 30, 2006, the Manager contractually agreed to limit the Fund's expense 9 THE WEISS FUND NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED) ratio to 0.68%. (exclusive of extraordinary and certain other expenses). In order to maintain this ratio, the Manager has waived a portion of its fees, which amounted to $146,748. The Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO") is an employee of the Manager. The Fund reimburses the Manager for a portion of her salary allocated to her duties as the CCO of the Fund. The level of reimbursement is reviewed and determined by the Trustees at least annually. For the period ended June 30, 2006, the Fund reimbursed the Manager $6,000 for CCO fees. Dechert LLP serves as legal counsel to the Trust. Each non-interested Trustee receives an annual fee of $1,500, $500 for each Board meeting attended, $250 for each Audit Committee or other meeting attended, plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses for serving in that capacity. No person who is an officer, trustee, or employee of the Manager, Distributor, Administrator, or of any parent or subsidiary thereof, who serves as officer, trustee, or employee of the Trust receives any compensation from the Trust. 4. NET ASSETS At June 30, 2006, the Fund's net assets consisted of: <Table> Paid in Capital................. $120,796,059 Accumulated net realized loss on investments...................

SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST The Trust's Declaration of Trust authorizes the Board of Trustees to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest each having $0.01 par value. The Manager, in its capacity as Investment Adviser to its clients' discretionary assets, may use the Fund as an investment vehicle for its clients' cash assets. As such, there may be large fluctuations in the size of the Fund's assets based on the Manager's investment decisions. These fluctuations do not affect Fund performance. Transactions in capital shares for the period ended June 30, 2006 and the year ended December 31, 2005, respectively, are summarized below. <Table> <Caption> PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2006 YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 ------------------------------- ------------------------------- SHARES VALUE SHARES VALUE ------------ ------------- ------------ ------------- Shares Sold............. 172,906,942 $ 172,906,942 240,671,093 $ 240,671,093 Shares Reinvested....... 1,590,217 1,590,217 2,526,636 2,526,636 Shares Repurchased......
