BlackRock rated buy with $1,256 target, driven by growth in private markets and AI sectors.

BlackRock is reaffirmed as a buy with a new price target of $1,256, implying an 11% upside plus a 2.05% dividend yield. The firm's strategic expansion into private markets, technology, and AI infrastructure is boosting fee revenue and reducing sensitivity to macroeconomic changes. Q2 results showed strong performance with 31% revenue growth, 39% adjusted operating income growth, and solid net inflows, especially from institutional ETF and private market clients. While risks exist in private credit and AI financing, BlackRock's premium valuation is supported by durable growth and expanding business lines.
