* 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 ($7.0m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $59.60. Options: 16 managers hold calls ($37.3m notional), 11 hold puts ($16.2m).
