Mar 25, 2025

Spark New Zealand Ltd (ASX:SPK, NZE:SPK) saw its stock soar by 6.39% in Tuesday's trading session, outpacing the 5% gains reported earlier in the day. This significant uptick comes on the heels of news that investment giant BlackRock and its affiliates have substantially increased their stake in the company.

According to a filing released on Tuesday, BlackRock and its related entities have boosted their interest in Spark New Zealand to 8.1%, up from their previous holding of 5.9%. This move represents a vote of confidence in the New Zealand telecommunications company and has clearly resonated with other investors, driving the stock's impressive performance.

The filing reveals that BlackRock and its affiliates now hold 148.8 million shares in Spark New Zealand. This increased position by such a prominent institutional investor could signal positive sentiment about the company's future prospects and may attract further attention from both retail and institutional investors alike.
