On June 24, Blackstone fell 3.04% in regular trading, trading at $116.15/share, with turnover of $102 million. The alternative asset management sector faced broad selling pressure, with BlackRock down 4.01%, Carlyle down 2.71%, Ares Management down 2.48%, and KKR down 1.39%.
On the news front, market concerns over private credit liquidity have yet to subside. Blackstone previously imposed a 5% cap on investor redemption limits for its $79 billion private credit fund BCRED after redemption requests surged. The restriction highlighted potential liquidity stress in the private credit space, weighing on investor sentiment across the sector.
Meanwhile, Blackstone announced plans to invest $30 billion in AI data centers in Japan over the next three to five years, with COO Jonathan Gray stating that the risk of underproducing computing resources surpasses concerns about an AI bubble. However, the positive long-term investment narrative failed to offset near-term sector headwinds and company-level liquidity concerns that jointly pressured the stock.
