Got Blackrock?

#1

Post by Rex B »

Blackrock Inc is looking to divest it's gun company holdings. You may have some Blackrock shares in your IRA or 401K, as I do. If you are a stockholder, consider contacting the company and tell them you are an NRA member and will sell your stock if they make anti-gun changes.

"What is BlackRock Inc?
It is the world's largest fund manager.

BlackRock manages more than £4 trillion ($5 trillion) worth of investments and pension funds worldwide and is often consulted by governments.

The company is the largest shareholder in leading gun makers Sturm, Ruger & Co and American Outdoor Brands (formerly Smith & Wesson).

BlackRock is also a large shareholder in firms such as Walmart and Dick's Sporting Goods which sell guns."
