Deal expansion with TotalEnergies fails to spark buying amid selling pressure

TotalEnergies and KKR have confirmed the expansion of their joint venture in the United States by adding a 700 megawatt renewable energy portfolio valued at $1.2 billion, according to TradingView. This completed acquisition extends KKR’s exposure to US renewables and could support greater long-term earnings stability through diversified infrastructure assets. However, the news did not trigger immediate buying interest, as price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Technical breakdown and mixed indicators point to indecision

On the hourly chart, KKR is below the MA-20 at $90.69 and MA-50 at $90.41, with additional downward pressure confirmed by a break beneath the long-term MA-200 at $101.73. The Ichimoku Kijun at $90.34 is acting as the nearest resistance. Momentum signals are mixed: MACD shows a Buy, but ADX and CCI read Neutral. RSI gives a mild Buy, while Stochastic RSI is Oversold and Bull/Bear Power is Overbought. These conflicting readings highlight market indecision and a potential for sudden changes in direction.

Consolidation likely as downside risk outweighs upside chance

In the near term, KKR is expected to trade within the $86.28 to $90.26 range, reflecting typical volatility. The probability of an upward move sits at 21%, with a 79% chance of further downside from current levels. The base case scenario is for price consolidation inside this band, while a decisive break below support would confirm additional downside risk. Any bullish reversal would likely require a breakout above immediate resistance at $90.34.

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, sees KKR under sustained technical pressure, despite positive headlines around the joint venture expansion. Technicals are weak, with price below critical moving averages and resistance at $90.34 capping any rally attempts. Sentiment appears cautious, as the market ignores recent fundamental developments and favors further downside. "Until KKR can reclaim the $90.34 level, any long trades carry elevated short-term risk."

Earlier, analysts noted that KKR was facing significant challenges in operational turnaround and asset performance following its expanded investment in FiberCop. The current limited reaction to KKR’s increased exposure in U.S. renewables adds a further layer of complexity, with near-term trading focused on risks around a potential breakdown below $86.28 support.
