American corporation
* 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 ($18.5m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 22.4bn as of 2024-08-05, 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 ≈ $106.24. Options: 2 managers hold calls ($382.3k notional), 2 hold puts ($53.1k).
