I think people misunderstand what BlackRock does. It's a proxy for other investors. Investors all around the world buy assets, produced by BlackRock and BlackRock routes that money into corresponding shares/bonds/real estate, etc.

The word "Produced" is doing some heavy-lifting in that sentence. When I hear "produced" I think of a factory making stuff that has value or a farm producing food.
