* 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 ($1.1m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $84.74. Options: 12 managers hold calls ($166.1m notional), 10 hold puts ($48.7m).
