Shares of BlackRock (BLK) are trading lower by 0.54% this morning, demonstrating notable relative weakness despite positive news regarding its GIP unit teaming up with EQT for a bid to acquire power firm AES. The asset manager opened higher at $1116.64 but has since retreated, currently underperforming significantly as the broader S&P 500 registers a gain of 0.37% and the Financials sector surges over 2.7%.

Investors are seemingly looking past the potential acquisition news, with the stock unable to participate in the broader rally.
