  • 2020 Annual Report
    DECEMBER 31, 2020 2020 Annual Report BlackRock Funds III • iShares MSCI Total International Index Fund Not FDIC Insured • May Lose Value • No Bank Guarantee The Markets in Review Dear Shareholder, The 12-month reporting period as of December 31, 2020 has been a time of sudden change in global financial markets, as the emergence and spread of the coronavirus (or “COVID-19”) led to a vast disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The threat from the coronavirus became increasingly apparent throughout February and March 2020, and countries around the world took economically disruptive countermeasures. Stay-at-home orders and closures of non-essential businesses became widespread, many workers were laid off, and unemployment claims spiked, causing a global recession and a sharp fall in equity prices. After markets hit their lowest point of the reporting period in late March 2020, a steady recovery ensued, as businesses began to re-open and governments learned to adapt to life with the virus. Equity prices continued Rob Kapito to rise throughout the summer, fed by strong fiscal and monetary support and improving economic indicators. President, BlackRock Advisors, LLC Many equity indices neared or surpassed all-time highs late in the reporting period following a series of successful vaccine trials and passage of additional stimulus. In the United States, both large- and small- capitalization stocks posted a significant advance. International equities from developed economies grew at a more modest pace, lagging emerging market stocks, which rebounded sharply. Total Returns as of December 31, 2020 6-Month 12-Month During the market downturn, the performance of different types of fixed-income securities initially diverged due U.S.
