Piper Jaffray initiated coverage on The Blackstone Group (NYSE: BX) with an Overweight rating and a price target of $50.00.

Analyst Jason Weyeneth commented, "While shares have materially outperformed peers, we believe the attractive secular backdrop (growing & consolidating allocations), BX's unparalleled franchise (four leading scaled business lines), and strong fundamental momentum (asset growth & realizations) can drive further upside to the stock. Our $50 price target represents ~20% total return including estimated distributions."
