That&#39;s not nothing, and analysts who&#39;ve ventured forecasts think free cash flow could reach $2 billion or so by 2026.

He gave two examples of how old-fashioned distribution can lower the risk of creating streaming content. Paramount introduced a cowboy show called 1883 on cable to fans of its hit  Yellowstone before moving  1883 exclusively to Paramount+. And the company has used a 45-day theater window to help make back the cost of movies that end up on streaming.</p><p>At a glance, Netflix is a much bigger fan favorite and better hitmaker, judging by its 221 million streaming subscribers and a big haul of recent awards. But it has also burned more than $8 billion in cash cumulatively over the past six years. Investors have revolted against cash burners when Netflix&#39;s growth has broken down. This quarter, it predicts a loss of two million subscribers. The company plans to launch a cheaper, ad-supported subscription tier, but setting up an ad business takes time.</p><p>We don&#39;t yet know how appealing Netflix will be as a service if the company must bring down content spending to levels that turn free cash flow consistently positive. On the flip side, we don&#39;t know whether future free cash projections will pan out if the company must ramp up spending to rekindle growth. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TWOA.U\">Two</a> analysts have estimated Netflix&#39;s 2026 free cash flow; one says $5.5 billion and the other says $9.5 billion. The midpoint, $7.5 billion, assumes both heady revenue growth and a margin that far exceeds what Viacom and CBS were generating back in 2016.</p><p>Bottom line: Netflix has four times the market value of Paramount today, but it&#39;s far from clear that it can produce four times the free cash flow even several years from now. Maybe it will prove to be a technology company that&#39;s unbound by the traditional limitations of putting up cash to try to make hits. But if it&#39;s just a show business company with a head start online, Buffett&#39;s bet is likely to outperform.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Why Warren Buffett Bought Paramount, Not Netflix</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nWhy Warren Buffett Bought Paramount, Not Netflix\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2022-05-18 14:16</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p>Older viewers love CBS, but I&#39;m guessing that Warren Buffett didn&#39;t just drop $2.6 billion on shares of network parent <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PARA\">Paramount Global</a> because he&#39;s a big fan of NCIS: Hawaii.

Last quarter, Paramount brought in 6.3 million subscribers, reaching 62 million. That doesn't count 68 million regular Pluto viewers that the company said was up by a double-digit percentage from a year earlier.Note that Paramount's crimped free cash flow, when calculated against the company's recent stock market value of $20.8 billion, makes for a free cash yield of 3.4%. That's not nothing, and analysts who've ventured forecasts think free cash flow could reach $2 billion or so by 2026. What makes that appear feasible is that it implies a margin that's well lower than the one the old Viacom and CBS were achieving. If those forecasts prove accurate, Buffett will have bought into a 10% free cash yielder.\"This combination of traditional assets and streaming assets is a real advantage, both in our ability to accelerate our business and drive subscribers and create more attractive economics and margins than a pure play streamer would have,\" Bakish told me in February. He gave two examples of how old-fashioned distribution can lower the risk of creating streaming content. Paramount introduced a cowboy show called 1883 on cable to fans of its hit  Yellowstone before moving  1883 exclusively to Paramount+. And the company has used a 45-day theater window to help make back the cost of movies that end up on streaming.At a glance, Netflix is a much bigger fan favorite and better hitmaker, judging by its 221 million streaming subscribers and a big haul of recent awards. But it has also burned more than $8 billion in cash cumulatively over the past six years. Investors have revolted against cash burners when Netflix's growth has broken down. This quarter, it predicts a loss of two million subscribers. The company plans to launch a cheaper, ad-supported subscription tier, but setting up an ad business takes time.We don't yet know how appealing Netflix will be as a service if the company must bring down content spending to levels that turn free cash flow consistently positive. On the flip side, we don't know whether future free cash projections will pan out if the company must ramp up spending to rekindle growth. Two analysts have estimated Netflix's 2026 free cash flow; one says $5.5 billion and the other says $9.5 billion. The midpoint, $7.5 billion, assumes both heady revenue growth and a margin that far exceeds what Viacom and CBS were generating back in 2016.Bottom line: Netflix has four times the market value of Paramount today, but it's far from clear that it can produce four times the free cash flow even several years from now. Maybe it will prove to be a technology company that's unbound by the traditional limitations of putting up cash to try to make hits. But if it's just a show business company with a head start online, Buffett's bet is likely to outperform.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":49,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":869528849,"gmtCreate":1632306954081,"gmtModify":1676530748148,"author":{"id":"3575085237839408","authorId":"3575085237839408","name":"KokTong","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02f7e5a5dfae2a5a3102418ad5bfc1dd","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575085237839408","authorIdStr":"3575085237839408"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TCEHY\">$Tencent Holding Ltd.(TCEHY)$</a>To the moon","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TCEHY\">$Tencent Holding Ltd.(TCEHY)$</a>To the moon","text":"$Tencent Holding Ltd.(TCEHY)$To the moon","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/869528849","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":180,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":819695668,"gmtCreate":1630062046354,"gmtModify":1676530213917,"author":{"id":"3575085237839408","authorId":"3575085237839408","name":"KokTong","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/02f7e5a5dfae2a5a3102418ad5bfc1dd","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575085237839408","authorIdStr":"3575085237839408"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"oh no","listText":"oh no","text":"oh no","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/819695668","repostId":"2162847016","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2162847016","pubTimestamp":1630008724,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2162847016?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-08-27 04:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Wall Street loses ground, snapping rally on Afghanistan, Fed concerns","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2162847016","media":"Reuters","summary":"NEW YORK, Aug 26 (Reuters) - Wall Street closed lower on Thursday, ending a streak of all-time closi","content":"<p>NEW YORK, Aug 26 (Reuters) - Wall Street closed lower on Thursday, ending a streak of all-time closing highs on concerns over developments in Afghanistan, while fears of a potential shift in U.S. Federal Reserve policy prompted a broad but shallow sell-off the day before the Jackson Hole Symposium.</p>\n<p>All three major U.S. stock indexes ended the session in the red, with the S&amp;P and the Nasdaq notching their first down day in six.</p>\n<p>The sell-off firmed after hawkish commentary from Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan and a blast outside the Kabul airport in Afghanistan helped strengthen the risk-off sentiment.</p>\n<p>Kaplan, who is not currently a voting member of the Federal Open Markets Committee, said he believes the progress of economic recovery warrants tapering of the Fed's asset purchases to commence in October or shortly thereafter.</p>\n<p>Kaplan's remarks followed earlier comments from the St. Louis Fed President James Bullard, who said that the central bank is \"coalescing\" around a plan to begin tapering process.</p>\n<p>\"(Kaplan’s statements) caused a little confusion about the taper timeline, but in my opinion the equity markets are focused on geopolitical issues,\" said Megan Horneman, director of portfolio strategy at Verdence Capital Advisors in Hunt Valley, Maryland. \"There’s a flight to safety during geopolitical tensions.\"</p>\n<p>\"I am surprised the market the market hasn’t fallen more, given the fear that it could take focus away from (U.S. President Joe Biden's) domestic agenda,\" Horneman added.</p>\n<p>The economy grew at a slightly faster pace than originally reported in the second quarter, fully recovering its losses from the most abrupt downturn in U.S. history, according to the Commerce Department.

But jobless claims, though still on a downward trajectory, ticked higher last week.\nThe data did little to move the needle with respect to expectations that the Fed is unlikely tip its hand regarding the taper timeline when Chairman Jerome Powell unmutes and delivers his speech at Friday's virtual Jackson Hole Symposium.\n\"We’re going to see a lot of market participants analyze every word (Powell) uses, but at the end of the day, they will begin tapering,\" Horneman said. \"I’m more concerned about the speed at which they taper. What are they going to start with? That will give us a clearer indication as whether they’re getting more hawkish.\"\nThe Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 192.38 points, or 0.54%, to 35,213.12, the S&P 500 lost 26.19 points, or 0.58%, to 4,470 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 96.05 points, or 0.64%, to 14,945.81.\nOf the 11 major sectors in the S&P 500, all but real estate ended the session lower, with energy stocks suffering the steepest percentage loss.\nDiscount retailers Dollar General Corp and Dollar Tree Inc slid 3.8% and 12.1%, respectively, after warning higher transportation costs will hurt their bottom lines.\nCoty Inc jumped 14.7% after the cosmetics firm said it expects to post full-year sales growth for the first time in three years.\nSalesforce.com Inc hiked its earnings forecast as the shift to a hybrid work model is expected to fuel strong demand. Its shares advanced 2.7%.\nNetApp Inc jumped 4.7% as brokerages raised their price targets in the wake of the cloud computing firm's better-than-expected 2022 earnings outlook.\nDeclining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 2.99-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 1.83-to-1 ratio favored decliners.\nThe S&P 500 posted 31 new 52-week highs and two new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 82 new highs and 39 new lows.\nVolume on U.S. exchanges was 8.27 billion shares, compared with the 8.96 billion average over the last 20 trading days.
