* 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 ($2.4m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $12.52. Options: 11 managers hold calls ($32.4m notional), 10 hold puts ($18.5m).
