* 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. Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $3.48. Options: 5 managers hold calls ($121.5k notional), 4 hold puts ($68.9k).
