* 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 ($1.9m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $9.88. Options: 24 managers hold calls ($48.4m notional), 16 hold puts ($29.9m).
