“It’s going higher. I think BlackRock is the distinguishing event, it is the great financial repository for our nation, and you should own it,” Cramer said.

Why It Matters: In February, BlackRock revealed a strategic pivot towards active management to outpace traditional passive investment strategies. The move comes amid an economic landscape marked by higher interest rates, persistent inflation, and geopolitical risks.

However, BlackRock’s influence in the financial sector remains strong. The company’s CEO, Larry Fink, recently made a bold call to go all-in on equities for maximum returns, reinforcing BlackRock’s position as a key player in the investment world.
