MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. 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.

Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in BlackRock, Inc. for these reasons:

  • The stock has a relatively high price-to-earnings ratio of 24.08, which may indicate that it is overvalued compared to its earnings, potentially leading to lower returns if earnings do not grow as expected.
  • BlackRock, Inc. has a beta of 1.42, suggesting that its stock price is more volatile than the market. This could lead to higher risk for investors, especially in uncertain market conditions.
  • The company's payout ratio is 57.53%, which means that a significant portion of its earnings is being paid out as dividends. This could limit the funds available for reinvestment in growth opportunities.
  • Insider transactions show that key executives have sold substantial amounts of stock recently, which could raise concerns about their confidence in the company's future performance.
  • Despite strong revenue growth, analysts project earnings per share for the current fiscal year to be lower than the previous year, which may indicate potential challenges ahead for profitability.
