Original Note:
Blackrock doesn’t own 100% of these companies. Blackrock does manage other people’s assets, and that means they buy significant portions of those companies shares, but ultimately the shares are owned by the clients. This has been clarified in many occasions, like: https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-business-investment/fact-check-video-claiming-blackrock-and-vanguard-own-all-the-biggest-corporations-in-the-world-is-missing-context-idUSL2N2WI1K4
