BlackRock is vocal about the world's need to transition to a carbon-free economy, and the world's largest money manager has pushed its portfolio companies to set targets for reaching a zero-emissions world.
But the investment manager, which holds about $10 trillion in client funds, has also been touting its fossil fuel credentials in Texas, where it faces heat from politicians and the state's powerful oil and gas industries.
"We will continue to invest in and support fossil fuel companies, including Texas fossil fuel companies," BlackRock wrote in a January letter. The memo, addressed "To whom it may concern," was sent to Texas officials and local trade groups, a BlackRock spokesperson said.

Het werkwoord "to tout" moest ik even opzoeken: kopers zoeken, dus Blackrock blijft gewoon klanten zoeken om fossiele fondsen aan te verkopen. Ik interpreteer dat als: Blackrock blijft investeringsvehikels vullen met Petrol en die verhikels als beleggingsfondsen aanbieden op de markt. Niks aan het handje dus, vooralsnog.
Blijft wel de vraag wat de pressure op de koersen van de Shell en XOM veroorzaakt, ondanks de toch heel behoorlijk hoge olieprijzen. (de andere majors heb ik even niet actueel paraat). "Onzekerheid over Oekraïne" kán, maar vind ik niet zelf niet zo heel overtuigend.
Zou tof zijn als olie door de $ 100 zou gaan, ben super benieuwd wat dat teweeg zou brengen,
