* 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 ($4.2m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $6.84. Options: 8 managers hold calls ($7.3m notional), 3 hold puts ($747.6k).
