Which is wrong cannot be told from the filings; the others in the same position are listed here.

The filing reports no cash collateral position against this loan. Collateral taken in a form the fund does not hold as a position does not appear in N-PORT, so this is silence rather than absence.

2026-01-31 → 2026-04-3040 positions became 41: 1 added (0.0% of the fund at the later date), 0 dropped (0.0% at the earlier date). Half the sum of all weight changes, a turnover proxy: 7.3%.
