Klarna is trading 4.02% up at $13.69, with reported takeover interest the clearest cited catalyst. - On October 29, 2026, shares rose amid takeover reports, with traders citing a Betaville alert; no transaction is confirmed. - Klarna’s Kohl’s payment partnership also went live that day, but reporting does not link the launch to the gain. - The broader market was weaker, making a company-specific catalyst more plausible than a market-wide rally.
