Netflix Inc.NFLXDON'T BUYJul 22, 2014Stock 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.
Stock is lower, and he thinks it was the concern over future spending to grow internationally. Over 50 million users, which is incredible, so the concept is definitely taking off. Probably under some margin pressure. The guidance on future earnings was a bit disappointing. Such high expectations are built into a share price like this that has gone up so much that it trades at a very high valuation. He would just avoid stocks like this altogether.
