TradingKey – KKR & Co. (NYSE: KKR) closed November 6 at $96.48, down 1.85%. Friday’s low came within a cent of $95.89 support. With third-quarter results due before the November 9 opening bell, the question for shareholders is how much of the capital KKR raised is already earning management fees.

The deal announcements tell a different part of the story. KKR has found a buyer for a railcar business and agreed to invest in a fund administrator. Both deals have 2027 closing timetables. The November report gives investors a chance to measure the earnings power of the business already in place.
