American chemical manufacturing company
* 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 ($18.3m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 124.8m as of 2024-03-31, 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 ≈ $63.88. Options: 21 managers hold calls ($151.2m notional), 22 hold puts ($189.4m).
