KKR & Co’s stock has been under pressure due to concerns over the company’s strategy of warehousing balance sheet liquidity, which TD Cowen views as poorly timed and optically unfavorable. This has led to a reduction in KKR’s price target. Additionally, the company has been involved in major transactions, including selling shares of BridgeBio and a significant deal with Japanese retailer Seiyu. Market sentiment remains bearish, as evidenced by heavy put volume trading and a high put/call ratio, signaling investor caution. Despite these challenges, KKR remains profitable, with recent quarterly revenue of $3.2 billion and a net profit of $1.13 billion, though these figures have decreased from the previous year.
