* 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 ($1.1m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $7.91. Options: 14 managers hold calls ($36.0m notional), 11 hold puts ($11.0m).
