Netflix Investors are on Edge Ahead of Earnings

Dow Jones00:49

1249 ET - The market has soured on Netflix in the last few months, bringing several concerns to the forefront ahead of the streaming company's 2Q results, Morgan Stanley analysts say in a note. Investors are worried about engagement trends and a lack of recent break-through new content, as well as the possibility of higher churn after a price hike in March. There are also concerns over higher spending and less margin expansion than Netflix's historical average, plus questions over its positioning amid the rise of AI and uncertainty over which type of content will resonate with audiences in the future, they say. However, they continue to see shares as undervalued. "We tend to think many of these concerns are well understood and in some cases overblown," they say. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
