* 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 ($2.2m this quarter). Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $39.74. Options: 9 managers hold calls ($7.9m notional), 6 hold puts ($7.1m).
