* Summed across managers. Shares that two managers' reports both contain – a subsidiary's holdings that its parent's report includes too, or a sub-adviser's in its client's – are counted once ($583.1k this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 69.1m as of 2024-08-02, from the company's own SEC filing; the percentage can still exceed 100%: lent-out shares are counted by the lender and the buyer, and some reports overlap without saying so. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $50.37. Options: 3 managers hold calls ($1.2m notional), 2 hold puts ($25.2k).
