Should You Buy KKR & Co Inc (KKR) Today? Analysis, Price Targets, and 2026 Outlook.
Analysis Updated At
2026/01/30
KKR is not a good buy right now. Despite being deeply oversold (RSI_6 ~17.9) and near support, the broader trend is still bearish (SMA_200 > SMA_20 > SMA_5, MACD histogram negative). Options positioning is notably defensive (put-heavy), and insider selling has accelerated, which weakens the case for an impatient entry today. The more attractive setup is after a clear reversal signal or a reclaim of key levels (e.g., back above ~115.5–123.5), potentially helped by the Feb-5 earnings catalyst.
Technical Analysis
Trend/structure: Bearish trend with moving averages stacked negatively (SMA_200 > SMA_20 > SMA_5), implying price is still in a downtrend rather than a confirmed bottom.
Momentum: MACD histogram at -1.802 (below zero) but negatively contracting, suggesting downside momentum is slowing; this can precede a short-term bounce, but it is not a confirmed reversal.
RSI: RSI_6 at 17.858 signals extreme oversold conditions—bounce risk is elevated, but oversold can persist in a downtrend.
Levels: Price 114.79 is slightly below S1 (115.543). If it fails to reclaim ~115.5 quickly, next support is S2 ~110.657. Upside levels to watch are Pivot 123.45, then R1 131.357.
Near-term pattern odds (model): 70% chance of ~-0.02% next day, +4.06% next week, +8.12% next month—this supports a potential bounce window, but technical trend still argues against chasing immediately.
