A peer-relative read for asset managers on profitability (ROE), valuation, and covered income — the quality-growth (FCF/ROIC) screen doesn't apply to balance-sheet businesses. Not comparable to the 0–100 quality-growth score shown on other stocks.

Why now
Asset Management · market cap $131.5b. Down 34% from 52-week high of $166.39 — deep drawdown territory. Revenue growing +14%, comfortably above the S&P median. 22 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $141.64 (implying +29% upside).
Moat
Net margin 23% sits well above the S&P median (~11%) — suggests structural pricing advantage or cost discipline competitors can't quickly close. ROE 31% — top-decile capital efficiency. Either pricing leverage, low capital intensity, or aggressive buybacks; the durability story depends on which. $131.5b market cap gives the company enough scale to absorb fixed costs that subscale competitors can't, without yet being so large that growth has to come from acquisition.
Risk
Down 34% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up. Beta 1.59 implies above-market volatility — position-size to the drawdowns this name will produce in a market correction, not to its bull-case return. Dividend payout 111% of earnings on a 4.6% yield — distribution coverage is thin; one earnings stumble could force a dividend cut.
Horizon
1-3 yr $141.64 (22-analyst consensus) — fundamentals + valuation re-rating. 5 yr $207.37 at ~14% CAGR — compounding case rests on the competitive position widening. 10 yr $307.62 if current growth sustains into durable earnings power.

Blackstone Inc. (BX): score, valuation & FAQ

Blackstone Inc. (BX) is an Asset Management company. As a bank, insurer or REIT it runs on a different financial model from the rest of the market, so Bull Rankings grades it on a sector-appropriate card — price-to-book, dividend yield, payout ratio and cash-flow coverage — rather than the 0–100 quality-growth score used elsewhere. The read below is a transparent screen, not a buy recommendation.

Its strongest graded signals are ROE (A), Rev (B+) and Yield (B+), while P/B (D) rate weaker.

Is BX a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings grades BX on a sector-appropriate card — price-to-book, dividend yield, payout and cash-flow coverage — rather than a single quality-growth score. That is driven by ROE (A), Rev (B+) and Yield (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Blackstone Inc.'s fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.

How does Bull Rankings grade BX?

As a bank, insurer or REIT, BX isn't given a quality-growth score — signals like free cash flow, debt-to-equity and P/E don't translate cleanly to a balance-sheet business. Instead it's graded on a sector-appropriate card: price-to-book, dividend yield, payout ratio and operating-cash-flow coverage, where it rates strongest on ROE (A), Rev (B+) and Yield (B+) and weakest on P/B (D).

Is BX overvalued or undervalued?

We don't publish a discounted-cash-flow value for BX, and not because the business is unprofitable. For a lender, insurer or property trust, "free cash flow" measures balance-sheet growth rather than owner earnings — loan originations and repayments run through operating cash flow — so discounting it would produce a confident-looking number with nothing behind it. BX is judged on book value, return on equity and income cover instead, which is what the financial-strength card shows.

What are the main risks of investing in BX?

Down 34% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up. Beta 1.59 implies above-market volatility — position-size to the drawdowns this name will produce in a market correction, not to its bull-case return. Dividend payout 111% of earnings on a 4.6% yield — distribution coverage is thin; one earnings stumble could force a dividend cut.
