Technical analysis reads price and volume to judge momentum and timing. It complements the fundamentals above — it does not replace them. Here is what KKR's chart says today, with each tool explained.
Trend — moving averages. A moving average is the average closing price over a window, which smooths out daily noise. KKR trades near $103.94, around its 50-day average ($96.80) and 200-day average ($110.71). Price tangled in its moving averages means there is no clear trend — the stock is ranging.
Momentum — RSI. The Relative Strength Index runs 0–100 and measures how strong recent gains are versus losses. Above 70 is "overbought", below 30 "oversold". At 47 it is in neutral territory — neither stretched nor washed out.
MACD. MACD compares two moving averages to flag shifts in momentum. Its histogram is currently negative — short-term momentum is fading.
Volatility — ATR. Average True Range is the typical daily move. KKR's is $3.65 (~3.5% of price), so swings of about that size each day are normal — handy for setting a stop that isn't too tight.
Support & resistance. Over the last month KKR found buyers near $88.23 (support) and sellers near $101.05 (resistance); its 52-week range is $82.67–$153.87. A decisive break beyond either edge often marks the next move.
Volume. The latest session traded 0.8× the 20-day average — about normal. Rising volume on up-days suggests real buying; on down-days, real selling.

Debt / Equity

Operating CF
$477.76M
Free Cash Flow
$477.76M
FCF Margin
2.5%
In the latest year KKR & Co. produced about $477.76M of operating cash flow and $477.76M of free cash flow after capital spending. That is a free-cash-flow yield of about 1.5% on today's price. Cash flow is what ultimately pays shareholders, so it is worth tracking over time.
Can the payout survive a bad year? Scored from filed cash flow, earnings coverage, and the raise/cut record.
Coverage is weak, the payout was cut recently, or it's being financed rather than earned — treat the current yield as fragile.

Educational model on sample fundamentals — not a forecast or investment advice. Outputs are only as good as your assumptions.
The case for KKR:
- Revenue is growing 32.6% a year, a sign of real demand.
- As an established S&P 500 member in Financials, it brings scale and a long operating history.
The case against KKR:
- Elevated leverage (debt/equity 1.7x) adds financial risk.
- Like any single stock, it is exposed to competition, the economic cycle, and shifts in its end markets.
Valuation risk — at 31.2x earnings, disappointing results could compress the multiple.
Balance-sheet risk — debt/equity of 1.7x magnifies the impact of higher rates or weaker earnings.
Market risk — sector rotation, the economic cycle, and broad sentiment move the stock regardless of fundamentals.
On balance, the picture is mixed: KKR & Co. is a large-cap financials business still growing nicely, with solid profitability, and a heavier debt load to watch. It trades at 31.2x earnings, which our model scores Neutral (55/100). Weigh this against your own goals and time horizon — this is educational information, not a recommendation.
