BlackRock (BLK) Stock May Be Reasonable On AI Infrastructure Push
Find your next quality investment with Simply Wall St's easy and powerful screener, trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide. BlackRock stock has delivered a strong 74.9% return over the past 3 years. However, the current checks suggest the share price is no obvious bargain, with the intrinsic value estimate from the Excess Returns model sitting close to the market price while earnings based multiples lean expensive. Over the last 3 years BlackRock has returned 74.9%, which puts more focus on whether today's price still leaves enough room for future gains. Recent moves to finan

NIO Drops 5% on Disclosed BlackRock Stake Cut While Tesla, Lucid, Rivian Hold Steady
Quick Read NIO fell 5% after BlackRock's 13F revealed a 12% stake cut, though the disclosure is a 45-day-old snapshot of past holdings. BlackRock doubled its LCID stake to a record 12 million shares and raised RIVN to 56 million, signaling a rotation away from Chinese EV names. NIO's July deliveries surged 71% year over year to 35,934 vehicles, but strong fundamentals failed to offset the institutional positioning headline.

NVIDIA Partners With Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR to Establish AI Compute Infrastructure Financing Platforms to Mobilize Over $500 Billion of Third-Party Capital
NVIDIA New Financing Platforms Turn NVIDIA Compute and Full-Stack AI Infrastructure Into an Investable Asset Class for Global Capital, Broadening Access to AI Factories, Enabling Long-Duration Usage-Linked Revenue While Supporting NVIDIA's Ecosystem Growth Across Hardware Sales and Software Adoption SANTA CLARA, Calif. and NEW YORK, Aug. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NVIDIA today announced strategic partnerships to establish independent compute financing platforms with Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR to mobilize over $500 billion of third-party capital for the buildout of AI infrastructure over time. Demand for AI infrastructure continues to accelerate as countries, governments, enterprises and startups look to drive innovation, economic growth and societal benefits. NVIDIA compute is an investable asset — one which provides the lowest token cost, highest revenue and longest life along with a rich ecosystem of offtakers built upon NVIDIA's CUDA platform. Memorandums of understanding signed with six of the world's premier financial institutions to create these partnerships aim to establish the first compute financing platforms of their kind at global scale to enable the AI infrastructure buildout across NVIDIA's ecosystem, including leading frontier AI labs, enterprises and AI clouds. Under these strategic partnerships, NVIDIA will work with Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR to create dedicated pools of capital at significant scale at attractive rates for NVIDIA customers. "NVIDIA has reached an important milestone. We began by building chips; today, we are helping create a new class of productive, investable infrastructure: AI factories," said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. "In AI, compute is revenue. NVIDIA compute is uniquely suited for this role. It is broadly adopted, flexible across models and workloads, fungible and transferable across customers and operators, and continuously improved through CUDA software — extending its useful life and improving its economics over time. It is supported by a deep global ecosystem of developers, customers and offtakers. That is why we are bringing the world's leading long-term capital providers together to independently underwrite AI infrastructure. These financing platforms will help customers access scarce compute at scale and build the AI factories that will power every industry and country in the age of AI." "Modern compute has emerged as a scarce, mission-critical asset class with compelling investment characteristics that is positioned to drive significant long-term economic growth and productivity gains," said Apollo President Jim Zelter. "The combination of NVIDIA's proprietary technology ecosystem and Apollo's flexible, long-term capital base provides a strong foundation to support the next stage of the AI buildout as part of the broader Global Industrial Renaissance." Story Continues "The AI buildout will require unprecedented investment and a skilled workforce to turn that investment into the infrastructure that will help power future growth," said Larry Fink, Chairman and CEO of BlackRock. "This partnership deepens our relationship with NVIDIA, including through the AI Infrastructure Partnership, and brings together NVIDIA's leadership in accelerated computing with BlackRock's ability to connect long-term capital to essential infrastructure. Together, we can help deliver the compute capacity that companies need to grow and create more jobs, supporting the continued growth of the U.S. and global economies, while creating attractive, long-term investment opportunities for our clients." "NVIDIA has created extraordinary demand for its compute through an intense focus on customer value and versatile technology," said Jon Gray, President and COO of Blackstone. "We continue to be enormous investors globally across the NVIDIA ecosystem, and this announcement further underscores our confidence in their platform

BlackRock (BLK) Ties Up $14 Billion In AI Data Center Ownership Deal
Track your investments for FREE with Simply Wall St, the portfolio command center trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide. BlackRock (NYSE:BLK) agreed a major infrastructure partnership with Meta to build a large AI focused data center campus in El Paso. The deal includes significant joint investment and shared ownership of the new AI oriented facilities. The El Paso campus is planned as a core hub for supporting Meta's AI workloads and related digital infrastructure. The partnership underscores BlackRock's push into large scale digital infrastructure alongside global technology companies. Consider broadening your watchlist to include other companies building and financing AI focused infrastructure through 56 AI infrastructure stocksNYSE:BLK Earnings & Revenue Growth as at Aug 2026 BlackRock sits at the intersection of asset management and real world infrastructure, with its stock trading at $1,136.39 and multi year returns that include 75.7% over 3 years and 38.6% over 5 years. For investors tracking large financial firms tied into long term capital projects, this mix of traditional asset management and physical digital assets can be a useful angle to monitor. 3 things going right for BlackRock that this headline doesn't cover. What actually changes for BlackRock with this Meta AI campus deal? The El Paso venture shifts BlackRock from just financing digital infrastructure to co owning it at scale alongside Meta. Funds managed by BlackRock will hold 80% of a roughly US$14b data center campus with 1 gigawatt of compute capacity, with US$12.5b of debt helping fund the build. Meta contributes about US$2.3b of land and construction in progress and will be the initial sole tenant, while BlackRock puts in about US$4.9b of cash. For you, the key change is that BlackRock is tying its infrastructure capital directly to AI compute demand rather than only to broad utilities or transport projects. How does this fit with BlackRock's broader digital and infrastructure narrative? This deal sits alongside BlackRock's tokenized cash strategies such as BSTBL and BRSRV and its acquisitions in infrastructure managers such as Global Infrastructure Partners and HPS Investment Partners. On one side, BlackRock is building digital rails for cash and stablecoin reserves. On the other, it is backing physical AI infrastructure that large technology companies plan to use. The combination reinforces BlackRock's positioning as a provider of both financial infrastructure and real world assets that support data, power, and connectivity. Story Continues What has to go right next for this BlackRock news to really matter? The next key milestones are deal closing and execution on time and on budget. The transaction is expected to close in the coming days and the venture targets bringing capacity online in 2028. Investors can watch for clarity on lease terms with Meta once the campus progresses, updates on construction costs versus the US$14b plan, and details on how the US$12.5b of debt affects returns for BlackRock managed funds over the build period.

How to read the score
It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.
It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.
