Is BlackRock Stock a Buy?

Is BlackRock Stock a Buy?

BlackRock (NYSE: BLK), the world's largest asset manager, has endured a difficult couple of years. As the largest provider of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), as well as a prominent manager of mutual funds and institutional investments, its fortunes are largely tied to the movements of the broader markets. Last year, BlackRock's stock price was down about 20% while the S&P 500 was also lower by about that much -- 19%, to be exact.
