Netflix Inc.NFLXDON'T BUYOct 31, 2013Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Oct 21, 2026. Market Open.
He bought more, though it's a small position, because it traded down on a downgrade--but this was piling onto a stock that already had a tough time. He thinks for a trade, this will bounce. He though their last quarter was good, though the market didn't. With everybody so negative on Netflix, he thinks the bad news is already baked in.
He's buying more shares. Investors worry NFLX is losing share to YouTube and TokTok, while Paramount and Warners will likely merge. But NFLX still has the largest user base in the world and they make the most money per engagement. This allows them to add more content than their peers. They still grow revenues and profits. Still likes it.
(Note the short timeframe.) The market loved it for a while after the abandoned WBD deal. Then market started to focus on competition. But people aren't cancelling subscriptions; in fact, just the opposite. Trades at 20x 2027 PE for double-digit growth, terrific balance sheet. Boundless opportunities, sees so much upside.
Trading at 186X earnings. He always tries to keep in mind the difference between a great company and a great stock. This is undoubtedly a great company. They have transitioned from mailing DVDs to Internet services. Have original creative content of their own, as well as others, and are giving the cable companies a run for their money. Fabulous company but ridiculously priced stock.
