* 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 ($1.7k this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $5.67. Options: 8 managers hold calls ($3.8m notional), 7 hold puts ($4.8m).
