BlackRock - a fund that earns billions. How to buy its shares and become part of the empire?
BlackRock is not just an investment fund, but a true "grey cardinal" of global finance, and its owners secretly rule the world.
The fund manages assets worth US$11.5 trillion, a sum so large that it exceeds the GDP of many countries.
The fund was founded in 1988 by a group of financiers, including Larry Fink , who still heads the company.
There is talk in Wall Street circles that BlackRock has more influence than central banks and that its analysts can predict market movements before anyone else.
An interesting fact is that BlackRock owns stakes in almost all of the largest American companies, from Apple to Coca-Cola.
This approach allows one to influence key corporate decisions, participate in shareholder votes, and determine the strategic direction of development for entire industries, all while remaining in the shadows.
What does BlackRock invest in?
BlackRock isn't a fund in the traditional sense, but a management company that manages multiple funds and ETFs (such as the famous iShares). Investor funds are distributed among the following assets:
| Asset class | Portfolio share (%) | Investment volume ($ trillion) |
|---|---|---|
| Shares of the largest US and global companies - Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon and others | 50% | 5.0 |
| Bonds: government and corporate, including high-yield | 30% | 3.0 |
| Alternative Investments: Real Estate and Infrastructure Projects | 8% | 0.8 |
| ETFs and index funds (iShares) | 7% | 0.7 |
| Cash and available funds | 3% | 0.3 |
| Other (derivatives and structures) | 2% | 0.2 |
In this way, BlackRock acts as a smart allocator: it collects funds from around the world and directs them into a diversified portfolio of assets.
How to buy BlackRock shares and become a member
If you want to become "part" of BlackRock, you have several options:
Buy shares of BlackRock itself ( ticker: BLK ). This can be done on any major stock exchange (for example, the NYSE). You become a shareholder in a company that manages millions of investors worldwide.
Today, the stock is worth $1,100, but BlackRock pays stable dividends (about 2% per annum) and regularly grows in price.
Open a trade in MetaTrader 5 (tickers: BLK, #BLK, BLK.US, BLK.NYSE, BLK.nq, BLK.NAS, US.BLK, BLK_Stocks ) – some brokers, such as RoboForex , Alpari , and Amarkets , offer CFDs (contracts for difference) on BlackRock shares. This isn't direct ownership of the stock, but you can profit from a rising price or short it when it falls.
Investing in funds managed by BlackRock (iShares ETFs): If you want to invest in a BlackRock portfolio without buying the company's shares, look for ETFs with the iShares prefix. The most popular ones are:
- iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV)
- iShares MSCI World ETF (URTH)
- iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) – A New Offering for Crypto Investors
These funds can be purchased from brokers with access to the US or European markets .
BlackRock is a powerful financial institution that has been helping people grow their wealth for decades. You can become a shareholder or invest in its funds. Either way, it's a big game with smart management and global reach.
