* 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 ($16.9m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 233.4m as of 2025-02-13, 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 ≈ $129.52. Options: 29 managers hold calls ($444.8m notional), 33 hold puts ($510.7m).
