* 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 ($25.9m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 234.7m as of 2025-10-28, 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 ≈ $163.36. Options: 36 managers hold calls ($1.1bn notional), 39 hold puts ($1.0bn).
