* 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 ($278.6k this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $10.50. Options: 14 managers hold calls ($66.5m notional), 15 hold puts ($130.2m).
