* 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 ($8.5m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 234.1m as of 2025-04-24, 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 ≈ $130.51. Options: 29 managers hold calls ($515.6m notional), 41 hold puts ($691.7m).
