BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, has signaled a shift in its investment strategy, scaling back its exposure to U.S. equities while increasing its focus on short-dated Treasury securities. The move reflects growing caution among institutional investors amid evolving market conditions and economic uncertainty. Analysts suggest the decision may indicate concerns over near-term volatility in stocks, even as fixed-income assets gain relative appeal. The adjustment underscores broader tensions between risk assets and safer alternatives in the current financial landscape.
