Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

BLK Pros and Cons Explained These pros and cons were generated based on recent news and financial data from MarketBeat in order to provide readers with the fastest and most accurate insights. They were last updated on Monday, March 31, 2025. Please send any questions or comments about these BlackRock pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com. BlackRock Bull Case Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in BlackRock, Inc.: BlackRock, Inc. has a strong market capitalization of $147.10 billion, indicating its significant presence and stability in the financial sector. The company has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 22.56, which suggests that investors are willing to pay a premium for its earnings, reflecting confidence in its future growth potential. Recent institutional investments, such as O Shaughnessy Asset Management LLC increasing its holdings by 13.7%, demonstrate growing confidence among major investors. The current stock price is $947.48, which is relatively close to its one-year high of $1,084.22, indicating potential for appreciation. BlackRock, Inc. maintains a healthy debt-to-equity ratio of 0.45, suggesting that it is not overly reliant on debt to finance its operations, which can be a sign of financial stability. BlackRock Bear Case Investors should be bearish about investing in BlackRock, Inc. for these reasons: Insider selling has been notable, with a director selling 10,000 shares recently, which may raise concerns about the company's future performance from those who are closely involved. The stock has experienced a decline of 2.1%, which could indicate short-term volatility and potential challenges in maintaining its value. Despite a strong market presence, the company's price-to-earnings-growth (PEG) ratio of 1.90 suggests that its growth may not be as robust compared to its current valuation, potentially limiting upside for investors. Insiders own only 0.90% of the company's stock, which may suggest a lack of alignment between management and shareholder interests. The stock's 50-day moving average is $978.66, which is above the current price, indicating a potential downward trend that investors should be cautious of.
