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 ($29.7m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 124.8m as of 2024-06-30, 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 ≈ $57.57. Options: 26 managers hold calls ($129.0m notional), 22 hold puts ($103.5m).
