NETFLIX JUST DROPPED A MASSIVE BOMB! 💣🍿

Netflix stock is tumbling (down over 4%) after hours, but the numbers aren’t even the real story. The company just announced a game-changing move that has Wall Street freaking out. 😱

Here is the ELI5 breakdown of what is happening:

The Good News: They actually made more money than expected last quarter. People are still subscribing like crazy (over 325 million users!). ✅

The "Meh" News: Their forecast for the next few months was a little weak. Wall Street hates uncertainty. 📉

The HUGE News: Netflix said, "We are stopping stock buybacks." Usually, companies buy their own stock to keep the price up. Why did they stop?

The Reason: They are hoarding cash to buy Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) in an ALL-CASH deal. 🤯

Think of it like this: Netflix is like a rich friend who stopped buying fancy dinners (buybacks) because they are saving every penny to buy a massive mansion (WBD/HBO).

This means Netflix could soon own Harry Potter, Batman, and Game of Thrones. But acquiring a massive company is messy, expensive, and risky. That’s why investors are nervous right now.

So, the big question:

Do you think Netflix owning HBO and DC Comics is a genius move for the long run, or is this going to be a disaster? 👇

Netflix Slumps After Weak Guidance: Buy the Dip or Avoid?

Netflix fell over 4% after hours after the company issued weaker-than-expected guidance for early 2026. While Netflix reported a record 325 million paid subscribers and strong growth in advertising revenue, management warned that overall growth is set to moderate, falling short of Wall Street’s optimistic expectations. Netflix plans to increase film and TV production spending this year. With guidance disappointing, is Netflix entering a natural slowdown？ After the post-earnings drop, is Netflix a buy-the-dip—or a stock to avoid near-term?
