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 ($1.4m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $77.71. Options: 11 managers hold calls ($37.0m notional), 5 hold puts ($15.0m).
