Netflix Inc.NFLXBUY ON WEAKNESSJan 20, 2021Stock 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.
Streaming continues to be strong this year from 2020. Doubters felt streaming was a zero-sum game, but that isn't so. Money migrated to Roku from Netflix and other streamers. Roku was up 150% in 2020. But last night, Netflix reported a huge paid subscriber additions beat, so the streamers are not going away. NFLX shot up almost 17% today. Netflix also said they're getting close to breaking even in free cash flow, so they can pay down debt, fund their content and maybe even buy back shares.
