* 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 ($119.5m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $323.04. Options: 40 managers hold calls ($866.6m notional), 43 hold puts ($800.4m).
