* 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. Holder counts are more reliable. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $7.64. Options: 8 managers hold calls ($1.6m notional), 5 hold puts ($6.4m).
