BlackRock CEO Fink says nationalistic US policies to stoke inflation

HOUSTON (Reuters) -BlackRock CEO Larry Fink said on Monday that inflation in the United States will be elevated by nationalistic policies, including the deportation of workers.

"I think if we all are becoming a little more nationalistic - and I'm not saying that's a bad thing, you know, it does resonate with me - that it's going to have elevated inflation," he said.
