Significance 5

BX director Porat Ruth buys 439 shares on open market as stock trades well below 52-week highs amid mixed track record at this ticker.

Director Ruth Porat purchased 439 shares of Blackstone in three separate transactions, building on her existing substantial position in the company. The purchases occurred while the stock trades significantly below its 52-week high, presenting what could be viewed as a buying opportunity in a fundamentally profitable and growing company. However, Porat's track record at this specific ticker is decidedly mixed: over the 90-day timeframe, all five of her prior purchases at Blackstone were followed by declines, while the 30-day view shows more balance with two showing gains and three showing declines. This sixth buy at Blackstone follows a pattern of repeated accumulation (she has now made eight open-market purchases at this ticker in the 36-month window), yet her prior transactions at this same company have not vindicated her timing — she has never successfully timed a BX purchase on the 90-day horizon. The stock has also declined modestly over the past month and quarter, suggesting the director is buying into a period of near-term weakness rather than momentum.

Significance 6

Blackstone CAO sells 30,014 shares for $3.8M; consistent with 100% well-timed 90d pattern at BX.

Sawhney Vikrant, Chief Administrative Officer of Blackstone Inc., executed 2 separate sales on 2026-05-01, totaling 30,014 shares (30.0K shares) for $3,775,565.14 ($3.8M) at blended average price $125.79, reducing holdings from 929.7K to 899.7K shares (-3.2%). The transaction occurs as BX trades at $126.35, down 33.0% from its 52-week high of $188.68 but up 10.5% over the past 30 days. His prior trades at Blackstone show a stark pattern: all 3 previous sells executed on 2025-08-14 were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with negative 90-day returns of -16.6%, -17.0%, and -17.4% respectively, meaning the stock declined after each sale. This current filing extends a 100% well-timed track record at this specific ticker. The sales reduce an already substantial position but remain within the officer's significant remaining holdings of 899.7K shares, indicating no indication of full exit.

Significance 4

Director Porat Ruth bought 524 shares at blended $130.68 in 3 purchases; stock now $121.27, down 22.2% in 30 days.

Porat Ruth, a Director at Blackstone, executed 3 separate open-market purchases totaling 524 shares for $68,553.25, increasing her shareholding from 8,338 to 8,862 shares (+6.3%). The purchases occurred at an average price of $130.68 on February 17, 2026, but the stock has since fallen to $121.27, representing a 22.2% decline over 30 days and a 35.7% drop from its 52-week high of $188.68. Her prior transaction history at BX is instructive: across 5 previous purchases at this ticker, 0 of 5 were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with an average 90-day return of -11.8% (composite of the posted 90d figures). This latest purchase aligns with that pattern rather than signaling market-beating conviction at this price level.

Director Porat Ruth buys 402 BX shares (3 transactions) for $58,835.43 at blended avg $146.24 amid 29.9% pullback from 52-week high

Director Porat Ruth completed three separate purchases on 2025-11-10 totaling 402 shares for $58,835.43 ($58.8K) at a blended average price of $146.24, bringing holdings to 8,763 shares. The transaction occurs as Blackstone trades at $139.53, down 29.9% from its 52-week high of $199.05 and off 14.9% over the past 30 days. Prior BX trades by this director show mixed outcomes: three August 2025 purchases gained modestly in the near term (+4.5% to +5.0% at 30 days) but declined 14.0–14.5% by 90 days, while two May 2025 purchases posted stronger 90-day returns (+24.2% to +25.4%). The timing pattern at this ticker is matched discretionary open-market purchases against recent price deterioration, though historical execution at BX has been uneven—only 2 of 5 prior same-ticker trades achieved positive 90-day returns.

Significance 6

Director BREYER JAMES bought 13,900 shares of BX for $1,999,635.00 across 2 transactions on 2025-11-04

BREYER JAMES, a Blackstone director, executed two separate purchases totaling 13,900 shares for $1,999,635.00 at blended average price $143.86 on November 4, 2025, increasing his holdings by 25.3% from 55,006 to 68,906 shares. The purchase occurred as BX trades -27.5% from its 52-week high of $199.05 and -13.5% over the prior 30 days, suggesting the insider was acquiring at a lower price point in the recent trend. Blackstone's fundamentals remain robust with $3.7B quarterly revenue, $764.2M net income, and 64.9% annual revenue growth, though the stock's current P/E of 37.10 reflects elevated valuation. This represents only the second transaction at BX in the insider's measurable record, with a prior purchase on 2025-10-29 still too recent for outcome assessment.

Director James Breyer purchases 13,170 BX shares at $151.23; stake grows 31.5% to 55,006 shares amid 26.3% pullback from highs.

Director James Breyer purchased 13,170 shares of Blackstone Inc. at $151.23 on 2025-10-29, increasing his holdings by 31.5% from 41,836 to 55,006 shares. The purchase occurred as the stock has declined 26.3% from its 52-week high of $199.05 and fallen 12.8% over the past 30 days. Blackstone's fundamentals remain robust with $3,711,900,000.00 in latest quarterly revenue, $764,244,000.00 net income, and 64.9% annual revenue growth, though the stock trades at a P/E of 37.70. The combination of a substantial increase in his personal stake and the current depressed price relative to recent peaks provides context for evaluating the director's transaction in light of the company's underlying operational strength.

Significance 5

Director Joseph Baratta sells 113,000 BX shares for $19.9M; post-transaction holdings 695,757 shares (-14.0%)

Joseph Baratta, a director at Blackstone, executed 2 separate sales totaling 113,000 shares for $19,853,482.54 on 2025-09-25, reducing his stake by 14.0%. At Blackstone specifically, his prior 5 trades show a mixed timing pattern: his 3 sales in October 2024 logged 90-day returns of +14.4%, +12.4%, and +13.1%—all well-timed declines (the stock rose after each sale, making those sells poorly timed). His recent August 2025 sales show early 30-day gains of +1.2% and +1.6%, with 90-day outcomes not yet measurable. The current price of $175.32 is near the blended average transaction price of $175.69, and the stock is +2.1% over the prior 30 days and +16.0% over 90 days—a strong uptrend. The company's fundamentals remain robust: $3.7B quarterly revenue with +64.9% annual growth and $764.2M net income, though the P/E of 45.07 reflects elevated market valuation relative to earnings.

Significance 6

CLO Finley John G sold 21,500 BX shares for $3.7M, reducing stake by 48.8% to 22.5K shares

Finley John G, Chief Legal Officer of Blackstone Inc., executed a substantial open-market sale of 21,500 shares at $171.46 on 2025-09-08, reducing his holdings from 44.0K to 22.5K shares—a 48.8% reduction in his stake worth $3.7M. The sale occurred while BX trades at $178.23, approximately 3.9% above the transaction price and 10.5% below its 52-week high of $199.05. Examining his same-ticker history, Finley has executed 5 prior sales at BX, with mixed outcomes: 3 of 5 showed positive 90-day returns (2025-05-08 at +21.8%, 2024-08-07 at +28.8%, and 2024-11-07 at +6.3%), while 2 showed negative returns (2024-02-08 at -6.6%, 2024-11-07 at -0.6%), yielding a 40% well-timed rate at this specific ticker. His cross-ticker track record shows stronger discipline: 7 prior sells with a 42.86% well-timed rate and average 90-day return of +13.4%, suggesting his historical pattern at BX has been less predictive. The scale of this reduction—eliminating nearly half his position—alongside Blackstone's elevated valuation (P/E of 45.82 and +64.9% annual revenue growth) warrants investor attention to whether additional officer sales follow."

Significance 5

CAO Sawhney sold 50,850 shares at avg $173.64 for $8.8M; holds 737.2K shares post-transaction.

Sawhney Vikrant, Chief Administrative Officer at Blackstone Inc., executed 3 separate sales totaling 50,850 shares for $8,829,575.35 at a blended average price of $173.64 on 2025-08-14. The sale reduced his holdings by 6.5% to 737,248 shares. The current market price of $171.62 sits 13.8% below the 52-week high of $199.05, positioning these sales above current levels but below recent highs; the 90-day price change is +17.0%, meaning the stock has appreciated substantially in the recent period preceding this transaction. As CAO, Sawhney retains a substantial equity position at Blackstone, where revenue grew 64.9% year-over-year and the company generated $764.2M in net income last quarter. The transaction itself is moderate in scale relative to his remaining holdings.

Significance 7

Director Porat Ruth purchases 274 shares across 3 transactions for $46,698.68 total at BX, raising stake to 8,685 shares

Director Porat Ruth executed 3 separate purchases totaling 274 shares for $46.7K on 2025-08-11 at blended average price $170.19, increasing her BX holdings from 8,410 to 8,685 shares (+3.3%). The timing is notable: the stock currently trades at $176.62, up 8.1% over the prior 30 days and +20.4% over 90 days, positioning this purchase near recent strength. Across her open-market history spanning multiple tickers, Ruth's 14 prior buys averaged +1.6% return over 30 days and +11.4% over 90 days with a 78.57% win rate at the 90-day mark. At BX specifically, 3 of her 5 prior trades demonstrated positive 90-day returns, with her May 2025 buys each returning +25.4% and +24.2% over 90 days. The current filing adds to an established pattern of accumulation at this name, though investors should note her prior February 2025 purchases at BX each posted -11.8% returns over 90 days, indicating variable outcomes even within the same security.
