🚨 SOMETHING BIG JUST HAPPENED
BlackRock, the worlds largest asset manager, just BLOCKED withdrawals.
Investors tried to pull $1.2 BILLION from its $26B private credit fund.
BlackRock said NO and capped withdrawals at 5%.
Nearly HALF the investors who wanted out were denied their money.
At the same time, Blackstone faced record withdrawals and had to inject $400M of its own cash.
When the BIGGEST funds on Earth start limiting withdrawals, it is a MAJOR WARNING sign for the entire $1.8 TRILLION private credit market.

And there is no way he's going to figure this out. He couldn't figure his way out of a paper bag.

Yes, I agree that that part was misleading as it was an existing restriction built in the terms

No, it should not affect your withdrawals from your bank. Blackrock is a private equity fund, not a bank.

Part of what this shows is that the decisionmakers in the company make so much that they have $400 million to throw back

I agree that is the question. There is information they are privy to but you and I are not. And I have seen the argument
