* 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 ($45.6m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $170.11. Options: 22 managers hold calls ($399.0m notional), 20 hold puts ($234.3m).
