* 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 ($36.6m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 133.1m as of 2023-04-24, from the company's own SEC filing; the percentage can still exceed 100%: lent-out shares are counted by the lender and the buyer, and some reports overlap without saying so. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $171.68. Options: 14 managers hold calls ($44.3m notional), 13 hold puts ($43.6m).
