Questions about KREF
What people ask.
Why is KREF on Broken Stocks?
KREF qualifies for the Red List on decline depth. It is down -28.3% from its rolling 252-day high of $9.05, set on 2025-09-05 — 251d ago.
Is KREF a falling knife?
No. The falling-knife label usually implies a steep, severe drop — typically 30% or more from a fresh high. KREF is down -28.3% from its 52-week high, which qualifies for the Watch tier but is shallower than the falling-knife pattern. It's an early-stage decline rather than a sharp breakdown.
Is KREF a buy?
Broken Stocks does not issue buy or sell recommendations. The list is a rules-based technical warning system. It tracks structural decline depth and recency — not company quality, management, fundamentals, or news. Always do your own research and consult a licensed advisor.
Where is KREF trading inside its 52-week range?
At $6.49, KREF sits 15.1% of the way from its 52-week low ($5.87) to its 52-week high ($9.98). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.
How fast has KREF been declining?
The current 28.3% decline accrued over 251d, which annualizes to roughly -41.2% per year. Annualized pace is a sanity check — a 30% decline in three months is a different signal than a 30% decline over two years.
How does KREF compare to its sector?
There are 28 other Real Estate tickers on Broken Stocks: 11 Red, 15 Amber, 2 Watch, with 4 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -28.6% — KREF's decline is shallower than the sector median.
Does KREF's earnings date affect its tier?
No. Tiering is decided purely by decline depth and recency of the rolling-high date. The earnings date on file (2026-04-22) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
