Is it even possible to pull money from BlackRock? They seem to have their tentacles in everything.
Yes
We called our investment advisor and told him to get us out of Black Rock. He was hesitant because it was bundled with other investments. We knew we would loose money but did not want anything to do with their evil.
We did the same. Told our guy to divest anything ESG/DEI related.
