* 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 ($2.9m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $7.46. Options: 15 managers hold calls ($18.4m notional), 12 hold puts ($13.8m).
