Blackstone: Strong Buy On Durable Growth Blueprint
Initiating Blackstone at Strong Buy with $234 PT, citing unmatched perpetual capital model, record dry powder, and secular growth in private wealth and insurance channels.

Our below-consensus EPS outlook reflects conservative realization assumptions, but BX's downside is protected by resilient margins and opportunistic capital deployment.
