Klarna is trading 6.6% up at $14.93 after CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski disclosed a substantial personal investment.

  • He purchased 692,506 shares through an associated entity on August 26 for approximately $10 million, according to an SEC Form 4 filing.
  • Reporting explicitly linked the disclosure to Klarna’s Friday rise. The broader market is only modestly higher, making the CEO purchase the clearest immediate catalyst.
  • Recent guidance concerns remain a background risk.
