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.

Should I Buy Blue Owl Capital Stock? OWL 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 Thursday, September 17, 2026. Please send any questions or comments about these Blue Owl Capital pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

Blue Owl Capital
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Blue Owl Capital Inc.:

The stock is currently trading at $9.98, which is significantly below the average analyst price target of $13.57, suggesting substantial upside potential for investors who believe the market is undervaluing the company's recovery.
Blue Owl Capital Inc. offers a high dividend yield of 9.09%, providing a strong income stream for investors, although this high payout ratio of 766.67% indicates that the company is distributing a large portion of its earnings to shareholders.
The company recently completed a $91.7 million sale-leaseback transaction with Trustmark Corporation, acquiring 34 bank branch properties, which demonstrates its ability to execute large-scale real estate deals and generate immediate cash flow.
Institutional investors are showing renewed interest, with Engineers Gate Manager LP increasing its stake by 47.1% in the second quarter and other firms like Concorde Asset Management LLC and NorthRock Partners LLC establishing new positions, signaling confidence in the company's future performance.
Blue Owl Capital Inc. is expanding into the data center real estate sector with a planned $6.5 billion seed fund, positioning itself to capitalize on the growing demand for data center infrastructure, which could drive future revenue growth.

Blue Owl Capital
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Blue Owl Capital Inc. for these reasons:

The stock has experienced significant volatility, with a 52-week range from $7.95 to $19.29, and recent unusual options trading activity, including a 396% increase in put option volume, suggests that some market participants are hedging against further downside risk.
The company's high dividend payout ratio of 766.67% raises concerns about the sustainability of its dividend, as it is paying out more than it earns, which could limit its ability to reinvest in growth or weather economic downturns.
Blue Owl Capital Inc. faces a challenging macroeconomic environment, with recent news indicating that private credit and equity stocks have pulled back as investors reassess their outlook on the Federal Reserve, which could impact the company's lending and investment activities.
The stock's beta of 1.22 indicates that it is more volatile than the overall market, meaning that investors may experience larger price swings compared to the broader market, which could be concerning for risk-averse investors.
Despite recent institutional buying, the company's short interest has been relatively high, with 98,062,915 shares shorted as of the latest report, suggesting that a significant portion of the market is betting against the stock's performance.
