NETFLIX INC

Netflix

Netflix's relatively simple business model involves only one business, its streaming service. It has the biggest television entertainment subscriber base in both the United States and the collective international market, with more than 300 million subscribers globally. Netflix has exposure to nearly the entire global population outside of China. The firm has traditionally avoided a regular slate of live programming or sports content, instead focusing on on-demand access to episodic television, movies, and documentaries. The firm introduced ad-supported subscription plans in 2022, giving the firm exposure to the advertising market in addition to the subscription fees that have historically accounted for nearly all its revenue.

Today, at 10:32 AM on July 23rd, a significant trading signal occurred for Netflix Inc. (NFLX) as it demonstrated a Power Inflow at a price of $1164.91. This indicator is crucial for traders who want to know directionally where institutions and so-called "smart money" moves in the market. They see the value of utilizing order flow analytics to guide their trading decisions.

Traders with this signal closely watch for sustained momentum in Netflix's stock price, interpreting this event as a bullish sign.
Signal description
Order flow analytics, aka transaction or market flow analysis, separate and study both the retail and institutional volume rate of orders (flow). It involves analyzing the flow of buy and sell orders, along with size, timing, and other associated characteristics and patterns, to gain insights and make more informed trading decisions. This particular indicator is interpreted as a bullish signal by active traders.&nbsp;
The Power Inflow occurs within the first two hours of the market open and generally signals the trend that helps gauge the stock's overall direction, powered by institutional activity in the stock, for the remainder of the day.&nbsp;
By incorporating order flow analytics into their trading strategies, market participants can better interpret market conditions, identify trading opportunities, and potentially improve their trading performance. But let's not forget that while watching smart money flow can provide valuable insights, it is crucial to incorporate effective risk management strategies to protect capital and mitigate potential losses. Employing a consistent and effective risk management plan helps traders navigate the uncertainties of the market in a more controlled and calculated manner, increasing the likelihood of long-term success

Here's How Much $100 Invested In Netflix 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

A weakening U.S. dollar is discreetly helping <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">some ETFs</a> to outperform their size during this earnings season, particularly those comprised of globally exposed American titans. 
But before investors get caught up in the greenback-driven glow, experts caution: all that moves isn&#8217;t necessarily real growth.
Also Read:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/bonds/25/07/46488992/us-dollar-can-lose-its-supremacy-premium-if-fed-interferes-with-bond-market-currencies-are-release-valve-for-unsustainable-fiscal-policy"> US Dollar Can Lose Its &#8216;Supremacy Premium&#8217; If Fed Interferes With Bond Market: Currencies Are &#8216;Release Valve For Unsustainable Fiscal Policy&#8217;</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Dollar&#8217;s Slump And The ETF Sweet Spot</h2>
The U.S. dollar has fallen about 10% this year, battered by trade policy whiplash, debt worries, and decelerating growth, per a Reuters report. That weakness has boosted foreign earnings for multinational U.S. companies, and by proxy, juiced the payouts of ETFs that own them.
Industry ETFs such as the Vanguard Consumer Discretionary ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VCR#NYSE">VCR</a>), SPDR Industrial Select Sector ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLI#NYSE">XLI</a>) and iShares U.S. Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYW#NYSE">IYW</a>) are in the sweet spot. These funds allocate heavily to firms generating substantial revenue overseas, which are now profiting from favorable currency translation.
For instance, VCR component PepsiCo (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>) stated the dollar downturn assisted it in projecting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46463845/pepsico-delivers-the-fizz-in-q2-sweetens-outlook-on-subdued-dollar-headwind">less-than-anticipated annual profit decline</a>, the Reuters report noted. XLI component 3M (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMM#NYSE">MMM</a>) reported a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46491058/post-it-maker-3m-defies-tariff-headwinds-with-strong-q2-and-outlook-boost">profit beat in Q2 </a>with FX gains doing some heavy lifting.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why the Market Isn&#8217;t Celebrating (Yet)</h2>
Even though FX is benefiting the bottom line, investors do not trust it. Wall Street typically discounts foreign exchange-driven earnings surprises as optical, not fundamental.
This is particularly applicable to ETF investors who might believe they&#8217;re surfing a trend, only to realize it&#8217;s all flash, no substance. Constant-currency beats, those FX-adjusted, tend to get more rewarded than FX-led ones, says Goldman Sachs.
What does it mean? Don&#8217;t expect a lift in earnings to be followed by a lift in ETF prices unless it&#8217;s preceded by actual demand growth.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">When FX Becomes A Tailwind For ETFs</h2>
Still, the impact is real. Based on two decades of data, every 1% depreciation in the dollar improves S&amp;P 500 EPS growth by about 0.6 percentage points, according to LSEG data cited in the Reuters report. That's not nothing, especially for ETFs tracking international-facing sectors.
IYW has experienced indirect support from names like Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), which generate over half of their revenues from international locations.
Even thematic ETFs such as the Invesco International BuyBack Achievers ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IPKW#NASDAQ">IPKW</a>), which is skewed toward U.S. companies with aggressive foreign strategies, might gain if the dollar is weak.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ETFs To Watch If The Dollar Remains Soft</h2>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>VCR (Consumer Discretionary): Large global brands such as Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Nike (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>), and Starbucks (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>).</li>
<li>XLI (Industrials): High exposure to cyclical multinationals with international sales.</li>
<li>IYW (Technology): FX-bolstered cash flow machines such as Microsoft and Apple.</li>
<li>SPY / VOO (S&amp;P 500): Wide, but still ~38% international exposure.</li>
<li>IPKW/ iShares International Select Dividend ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IDV#BATS">IDV</a>): Dividend or buyback ETFs with heavy overseas tilts.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Bottom Line</h2>
ETF holders could be quietly profiting from the decline of the greenback, but such gains can disappear as suddenly as they began. Most of these gains are less about consumer enthusiasm and more about currency arithmetic, and that makes all the difference when macro is choppy.
Appreciate the tailwind, by all means. But don&#8217;t confuse a currency flutter with a structural break.

Dollar Down, Multinationals Up: ETFs Riding The FX Wave

Formula 1 is quietly becoming one of the most powerful profit engines in sports media and Goldman Sachs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/expert-ideas">is going full throttle.</a>
On Monday, Goldman Sachs analyst Stephen Laszczyk reinstated coverage of Liberty Formula One Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FWONK#NASDAQ">FWONK</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FWONA#NASDAQ">FWONA</a>) – owner of the Formula 1 and newly acquired MotoGP racing series – with a Buy rating and a 12-month price target of $120, suggesting a 17% total return potential.
In the report, Laszczyk calls Liberty Formula One Group a "high quality, execution-based growth story with potential for outsized capital returns", making it one of the firm&#8217;s top picks in the global sports media space.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Four Reasons Why FWONK Stock Is In Pole Position</h2>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">1. F1 Is Firing On All Cylinders</h3>
Goldman expects Formula 1 revenue to grow at 8% annually through 2028, driven by gains in race promotion, media rights, and sponsorships. Adjusted operating income is projected to expand at 15% per year, with margins getting a boost from a new Concorde Agreement kicking off in 2026.
This will be driven by gains across its three core verticals: Race Promotion, Media Rights, and Sponsorship. 
Laszczyk highlights that Formula 1 is capitalizing on the increasingly favorable supply-demand dynamic for hosting Grand Prix events, particularly in legacy European venues and emerging growth markets like the U.S.
The Las Vegas Grand Prix, in particular, is expected to rebound from a weak second year. 
On the media rights side, Goldman sees upside from step-ups in upcoming renewals in the U.S., Australia, and Latin America, and notes that around 40% of F1's media rights revenue is up for renegotiation by the end of 2026. 
Goldman analysts expect U.S. rights alone to jump from $85 million/year to $130 million/year, helped by rising engagement and reported interest from streamers like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>).
Sponsorship revenue is projected to rise at a 10% CAGR, aided by high-profile additions like LVMH&#8211;Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton (OTCPK: LVMHF), PepsiCo Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>), and Nestlé S.A. (OTCPK: NSRGY), plus new advertising partners in untapped verticals.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">2. MotoGP: A High-Potential Growth Engine</h3>
Liberty Media's acquisition of MotoGP is seen as a long-term win. With a business model echoing F1's, MotoGP is gearing up for global expansion and expects to grow profits by 13% CAGR through 2028—even with short-term repositioning.
&#8220;MotoGP has the opportunity to globalize its calendar,&#8221; Laszczyk notes, with 64% of races currently concentrated in Europe and roughly one-third of contracts up for renewal over the next two years. 
The firm also sees a pathway to expanding from 22 races per year to 24 over time.
"We see meaningful opportunity for MotoGP… to benefit under the stewardship of Liberty Media as it navigates further expansion into the global marketplace for sports media, sponsorship and event promotion," Laszczyk wrote.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">3. Massive Buyback Potential As Leverage Falls</h3>
Liberty Formula One's capital-light model and rising profitability should unlock massive free cash flow. 
"This deleveraging will afford Liberty Formula One the option to return significant capital to shareholders in the coming years," he said.
"At 2.5x net leverage, we estimate that Liberty Formula One could return over $6B of capital to shareholders by 2030, or about 25% of current market capitalization."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">4. Premium Valuation Backed By Premium Assets</h3>
At 23.5x EBITDA and nearly 29x free cash flow, Liberty Formula One doesn't look like a bargain. 
But Goldman says the price is right for a unique asset.
"We believe the stock's premium multiple is justified," Laszczyk wrote, highlighting the company's exposure to global sports rights, execution capabilities, and strong free cash flow conversion.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bottom Line</h2>
Formula 1 is no longer just racing—it&#8217;s an expanding media juggernaut with real pricing power and global brand momentum. With MotoGP now under its wing, Liberty Formula One is assembling a high-margin, capital-light sports empire poised for explosive cash returns. 
Goldman Sachs sees FWONK as one of the clearest plays on the future of live entertainment—and it's still early in the race.

Formula 1 Is Wall Street's New Money Machine—With Horsepower

CNBC Halftime Report Final Trades: Morgan Stanley, Netflix, Cognex, EQT Corporation

Content streaming juggernaut Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) continues to set expectations ablaze, thereby seemingly justifying its market performance this year. Last week, the media giant posted<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46481193/netflix-q2-fueled-by-price-ads-squid-game-q3-set-to-repeat"> second-quarter financial results</a> that exceeded analysts' expectations. In fact, the company's net profit of $3.1 billion represented a fresh<a href="https://www.the-independent.com/arts-entertainment/tv/news/netflix-revenue-profits-record-critics-b2791797.html#:~:text=Netflix%20has%20announced%20revenue%20of,%243.1%20billion%20in%20net%20profit."> record</a>. However, the volatility of NFLX stock following the results has led to probing questions.
On the positive front, it's difficult to deny the underlying narrative of consistently robust financial performances. In the second quarter, Netflix generated revenue of $11.08 billion, up 16% against the year-ago period. Furthermore, this tally exceeded Wall Street's estimate of $11.04 billion. On the bottom line, the company reported earnings per share of $7.19, beating the consensus view of $7.06.
In addition, Netflix's extensive content library continues to churn out winners, resonating with audiences amid an intensely competitive environment. Management highlighted multiple series and movies that saw strong performances, in particular the release of the third season of "Squid Game" in June. Despite its recent launch, the season has already amassed 122 million views, making it the sixth highest in Netflix history.
Finally,<a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/new-netflix-data-reveals-just-how-many-people-are-signing-up-for-the-ad-supported-plan/ar-AA1ICb7T?apiversion=v2&amp;noservercache=1&amp;domshim=1&amp;renderwebcomponents=1&amp;wcseo=1&amp;batchservertelemetry=1&amp;noservertelemetry=1"> advertising</a> has become a major sales booster. New research shows that roughly half of new Netflix subscribers in 2025 have signed up for the ad-supported tier. In 2024, this metric was about 40% and in the year prior, only about 20%. Investors may view the consistent growth as a motivating factor to consider NFLX stock.
Still, every publicly traded enterprise carries counterarguments to the bullish narrative. For Netflix, there are<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/reiteration/25/07/46498606/netflixs-blockbuster-profits-overshadowed-by-anemic-engagement"> concerns about anemic engagement</a>. Specifically, while Needham's Laura Martin reiterated a Buy rating on NFLX stock with a $1,500 price target, she cautioned that total viewing time per user appeared to be flat to declining. This dynamic must improve for Netflix to sustain its pricing power.
Furthermore, investors should consider the possibility that most of the good news has been baked into NFLX stock. For example, Netflix earlier<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/earnings-misses/24/01/36751622/netflixs-co-ceo-says-thrilled-with-password-sharing-crackdown-sees-positive-impact-"> cracked down on the practice of password sharing</a>, which has led to increased revenue. However, now that the company has largely monetized a significant portion of free users, the well may have effectively run dry.
To be sure, the performance of NFLX stock stands out. Since the beginning of the year, it gained almost 36%. However, in the trailing five sessions, NFLX slipped 4%. And in the past month, the security is down nearly 2%, which may raise concerns about fading momentum.
The Direxion ETFs: With opposing sides of the sentiment debate presenting strong arguments, traders may have ample opportunity to speculate, thereby shining a spotlight on Direxion's exchange-traded funds. For optimistic speculators, the <a href="https://www.direxion.com/product/daily-nflx-bull-and-bear-leveraged-single-stock-etfs?utm_source=Referral&amp;utm_medium=Text&amp;utm_source_platform=Benzinga&amp;utm_campaign=LandI_Product_NFXL-NFXS">Direxion Daily NFLX Bull 2X Shares</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFXL#NASDAQ">NFXL</a>) seeks the daily investment results of 200% of the performance of NFLX stock. For the skeptical, the<a href="https://www.direxion.com/product/daily-nflx-bull-and-bear-leveraged-single-stock-etfs?utm_source=Referral&amp;utm_medium=Text&amp;utm_source_platform=Benzinga&amp;utm_campaign=LandI_Product_NFXL-NFXS"> Direxion Daily NFLX Bear 1X Shares</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFXS#NASDAQ">NFXS</a>) seeks 100% of the inverse performance of the namesake security.
A key motivating factor for consideration of Direxion ETFs is convenience. Typically, market participants interested in leveraged or short positions must engage the options market. However, derivative financial products carry complexities that may not be appropriate for all investors. In contrast, Direxion ETFs can be bought and sold much like any other publicly traded security, thus greatly reducing the learning curve.
Still, prospective participants must be cognizant of these funds' unique risk profile. First, leveraged and inverse ETFs tend to be more volatile than funds tracking benchmark indices, such as the Nasdaq Composite. Second, Direxion ETFs are designed for exposure lasting no longer than one day. Holding these ETFs longer than recommended may expose investors to value decay due to the daily compounding phenomenon.
The NFXL ETF: Unsurprisingly, the NFXL ETF has gained nearly 60% since the start of the year, buoyed by Netflix's consistent financial results.
The performance of the NFLX bull fund has been highly accelerative since April, initially driving the price action above key technical benchmarks.
However, the previously mentioned volatility has caused the NFXL ETF to drop below its 20-day exponential moving average and the 50 DMA.

The NFXS ETF: On the other end of the scale, the NFXS ETF has struggled this year, losing roughly 30% as Netflix continued to beat analysts' expectations.
Between April and early July, the price action of the NFLX bear fund has consistently traded below its 20-day EMA and 50 DMA.
However, the latest surge in the NFXS ETF has seen the price action pop above these key technical benchmarks on high volume, warranting further investigation.

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed some decline in the overall market sentiment, but the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Greed&#8221; zone on Friday.
U.S. stocks settled mostly lower on Friday, with the Dow Jones index falling more than 100 points during the session as continued trade tensions kept investors on the sidelines.
According to the Financial Times, President Donald Trump is pushing for a sweeping 15% to 20% minimum tariff on all European Union goods. He is also rejecting any cut to the current 25% duties on EU car imports. Trump has signaled that if no deal is reached by Aug. 1, a 30% blanket tariff on EU imports could be imposed.

What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?

The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Tech News (July 14–July 18): China Cuts US Debt, Fed Signals Rate Shift, Netflix And TSMC Lead Earnings Beat; Meta-AWS Push AI

Benzinga examined the prospects for <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">many investors' favorite stocks</a> over the last week — here's a look at some of our top stories.
The Magnificent Seven led Wall Street higher this week, pushing the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100 to new all-time highs. Strong retail sales, low jobless claims, and standout bank earnings drove momentum, while tech giants' rally — including gains by Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) — supported investor enthusiasm.
Nvidia remains central, its AI-fueled valuation anchoring broader tech optimism. Microsoft posted a 22% YTD gain — second only to Nvidia — while Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) also kicked off upbeat forecasts.
The S&amp;P 500 closed above 6,297 — the highest ever — reflecting a broad-based bullish sentiment. Yet focus is shifting to potential Fed commentary and looming trade risks, which could test tech's capacity to carry markets much further
Benzinga provides daily reports on the stocks most popular with investors. Here are a few of this past week's most bullish and bearish posts that are worth another look.

The Bulls

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46473075/exclusive-this-stocks-up-1300-but-ceo-says-the-real-payoffs-4-years-away">"Exclusive: This stock's up 1,300% — but CEO says the real payoff's 4 years away"</a>, by Surbhi Jain, reports that Rigetti Computing Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGTI#NASDAQ">RGTI</a>) stock has surged over 1,300% on quantum hype, but CEO Subodh Kulkarni cautions that true commercial quantum advantage — and meaningful returns — are still about four years away.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) CEO Ryan Cohen pushed back on skeptics—calling short-selling "un‑American" — while reaffirming confidence in the company's turnaround and the strength of its free-market model.

Benzinga Bulls And Bears: Netflix, GameStop, Plug Power — And Defense Stocks Soar

Wells Fargo analyst Steven Cahall maintains Netflix (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) with a Overweight and raises the price target from $1500 to $1560.

Wells Fargo Maintains Overweight on Netflix, Raises Price Target to $1560

Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) stock is down Friday after the company beat analyst estimates for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46481193/netflix-q2-fueled-by-price-ads-squid-game-q3-set-to-repeat">the second quarter.</a> Investors see the beat as lower than expected, and higher costs in the second half could be scaring some away.
The streamer is trading near all-time highs. Patient investors earned strong returns over the years — 146% over the last five years. One investor who may not have been patient enough was Bill Ackman.
Ackman Buys Netflix: Pershing Square Capital, Ackman&#8217;s hedge fund, acquired 3.1 million shares in Netflix for more than $1 billion in January 2022.
In a <a href="https://assets.pershingsquareholdings.com/2022/01/26170421/Pershing-Square-Capital-Management-L.P.-Releases-Letter-to-Investors-01-26-2022.pdf">letter </a>to shareholders at the time, Ackman said Netflix was a winner in the growth of streaming over linear TV.
"It&#8217;s subscription-based, highly recurring revenues, which have enormous future growth potential," Ackman said. Netflix has "industry-leading content," which gives it a competitive moat and pricing power over rival streaming services, he added.
The Pershing Squre CEO also highlighted a growing global subscriber base and room for expansion.
Several months later, a poor earnings report from Netflix and uncertainty around the streamer's push into future ad-supported subscription plans spooked Ackman.
The investor <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/04/26729702/bill-ackman-exits-netflix-stock-after-400m-loss">cashed out of part </a>of the position and later fully exited from the investment by April 2022, taking a loss of around $400 million.
"Changes in the company's future subscriber growth can have an outsized impact on our estimate of intrinsic value."
Ackman said a hybrid approach of paid and ad-supported plans could be "sensible," but would make it tough to predict subscriber growth, future revenues and operating margins.
"We require a high degree of predictability in the businesses in which we invest due to the highly concentrated nature of our portfolio," Ackman said as the time.
Ackman said the hedge fund had lost confidence in predicting Netflix's future with certainty.

Missed Profits: At the time of Ackman's sell, Netflix stock traded at around $225. While this was down from purchase prices in the $350 to $410 range, the stock continued to go lower after Ackman's sale.
With Netflix stock trading down to $175 later in 2022, Ackman's exit looked like the right decision.
Over a year later, Netflix stock climbed back up to Ackman's cost basis and continued to rise.
Today, Netflix trades at $1,208.97, down from its 52-week high of $1,341.15 set just weeks ago.
Ackman's original 3.1 million share purchase would be worth $3,745,327,000 today.
Ackman announced the Netflix stake on Jan. 26, 2022 saying the hedge fund had been acquiring shares since Jan. 21, 2022. Netflix stock traded between $351.46 to $409.15 over that six day period.
Based on the highest price, Ackman paid up to $1,268,365,000 for 3.1 million shares.
That means Ackman missed out on potential profits of $2,476,962,000 by selling Netflix stock early.
To put this another way, an investor who bought $1,000 in Netflix stock on the day it was revealed Ackman sold could have bought 4.02 shares based on a price of $248.70. That investment would be worth $4,860.06 today, representing a 380.6% increase.
What's Next: Netflix beat second-quarter estimates thanks to several successful shows and movies, including the premiere of the third and final season of "Squid Game." The company also cited having higher subscriber revenue from user growth and higher priced plans. Advertising revenue also rose in the quarter.
Going forward, Netflix has key releases in the second half including new seasons of "Wednesday" and "Stranger Things".
Netflix is also expanding its live events with a key boxing fight and two NFL games on Christmas day.
While Ackman may not have been sure on how Netflix would play out with the launch of ad-supported plans, they are a key to the business today, and with live events seeing a boost from overall revenue thanks to advertisements.
Netflix said it expects its advertising revenue to double this year compared to last year.

Bill Ackman Nixes Netflix In 2022: Here's How Much He Could Have Made

UBS analyst John Hodulik maintains Netflix (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) with a Buy and raises the price target from $1450 to $1495.

UBS Maintains Buy on Netflix, Raises Price Target to $1495

It&#8217;s a cautious end to the week on Wall Street, as earnings from Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/reiteration/25/07/46498606/netflixs-blockbuster-profits-overshadowed-by-anemic-engagement">failed to impress investors</a>. 
Meanwhile, continued trade tensions kept investors on the sidelines, preventing further gains in tech-heavy indexes already <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">sitting near record levels.</a>
The S&amp;P 500 remained pinned near the 6,300 mark, a key level it has failed to decisively break for the past two weeks. 
The Nasdaq 100 edged down to 23,040, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 250 points, or 0.5%, by midday trading in New York.
According to the Financial Times, President Donald Trump is pushing for a sweeping 15% to 20% minimum tariff on all European Union goods. He is also rejecting any cut to the current 25% duties on EU car imports. Trump has signaled that if no deal is reached by Aug. 1, a 30% blanket tariff on EU imports could be imposed.
Despite the downbeat tone on Wall Street, fresh data on Main Street offered some positive signals. 
The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index came in at a five-month high for June. One-year inflation expectations fell to 4.4%, down from 5% in the prior month, easing concerns that tariffs are stoking broader price pressures.
In Fed talks, Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller affirmed his support for a July rate cut. He said he may dissent if the Federal Open Market Committee chooses to keep rates unchanged, adding to signs of internal division within the Fed ahead of the July 30 meeting.
In commodities, gold rose 0.4% to $3,360 per ounce as the U.S. dollar weakened
In crypto, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) fell 1.7% to $117,000 levels. The cryptocurrency is on track for a weekly decline after hitting record highs above $123,000 earlier in the week.
