Things have gone from bad to worse for Netflix (NFLX) stock over the last year. NFLX stock fell sharply on July 17 after markets gave a thumbs down to the company's second-quarter report. While earnings were broadly in line with estimates, Netflix's Q3 guidance spooked markets.
Notably, NFLX stock also plunged following the Q1 confessional earlier this year for pretty much the same reasons. That quarter, earnings easily beat estimates, but management still did not raise the annual guidance, which was seen as a sign of a slowdown in the coming quarters. In the Q2 release, management narrowed its annual revenue guidance to a range of $51 billion to $51.4 billion, increasing the lower end by $300 million while also cutting the top end of the range by a similar amount. Netflix's Q3 revenue guidance of $12.86 billion also fell short of Street estimates.

As the Iran war enters another volatile phase, Newmont (NEM) seemingly makes for a great contrarian trade. Sure, NEM stock is currently sitting on an 88% Strong Sell rating by the Barchart Technical Opinion indicator. However, it's possible that the escalation of hostilities could provide a temporary boost to the share price. Also, because NEM is down nearly 12% in the trailing month, it may be a positive mean-reversion candidate.
Another wrinkle to support the short-term bull case is Newmont's upcoming second-quarter earnings report. On July 23 after the market close, the gold miner is scheduled to release its financial results, with ***** ysts calling for earnings per share of $2.18 on revenue of $6.38 billion. Given the fact that Newmont has enjoyed generally strong results in recent quarters, another beat wouldn't be out of the question.

Intel Corp. (INTC) is set to release earnings on Thursday, July 23, after the market close. But investors are nervous. As a result, INTC is way off its highs, and put option premiums are high. Short-sellers can make a one-month 4.5% yield at an INTC put strike price that is 15% lower.
INTC closed at $95.04, down 2.0% on Friday, July 17. It's down from $139.53 on June 30 (-31.9%) and $140.94 on June 22 (-32.6%) in the past two weeks.

Every movie you have ever loved has lied to you.
The city skyline was a matte painting. The shark was rubber and it barely worked. The crowd of 40,000 was 400 extras and a lot of patient duplication. Audiences have never actually wanted the truth from a screen. We want the trick to hold.
Hollywood has always been comfortable with that bargain. What it has never been comfortable with is a change in who performs the trick.
That is the fight that shut the industry down in 2023, and it is the fight that has kept studios careful about how they discuss artificial intelligence (AI) ever since. Everyone has been running pilots. Almost **** ody has been willing to say how many. The safe play was to call it experimentation, name a single project, and move on before anyone asked a follow-up question.
Netflix (NFLX) just stopped playing it safe.

Netflix Inc (NFLX) stock closed down over 7% on Friday after Thursday's Q2 earnings release. Netflix projected lower Q3 revenue growth than in Q2 but maintained its 2026 projection. Netflix's operating margins were lower YoY but higher than last quarter and its own projections. Much of the bad news is already in NFLX stock. Is it too cheap here?
There were plenty of reasons for the market to be negative on NFLX, which closed at a new 6-month low of $68.95 on Friday, July 17. That's down from its 3-month peak of $107.79 on April 16 and even lower than a recent June 25 trough price ($70.90).

Netflix (NFLX) is still growing. Investors just stopped paying a tech price for it.
Shares of the streaming giant sank Friday after its third quarter revenue forecast came in below expectations, extending a slide that has cut the stock nearly in half since last summer.
The business did not collapse. The valuation did.
Netflix's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio once topped 70 times expected profits and still stood near 45 times a year ago. It has since fallen to 18.5 times. That drop has pushed the streamer below both the technology and communication services sectors.
A price-to-earnings ratio shows how much investors are willing to pay for each dollar of expected profit.

Second quarter earnings continued to roll in, with leading chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) reporting strong results that pointed to robust AI demand. UnitedHealth Group (UNH), GE Aerospace (GE), and Netflix (NFLX) also report on Thursday, rounding out the earnings mix.
The week started with a wave of bank earnings that showed broad-based strength, driven by Wall Street trading activity. "It's getting close to as good as it gets," JPMorgan (JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon said about current banking conditions after the country's largest bank reported its biggest quarterly profit on record on Tuesday.
It was a good start to what's expected to be a strong earnings season for the S&P 500 (^GSPC). According to FactSet data, **** ysts estimate the year-over-year S&P 500 earnings growth rate for the second quarter will be 23.3% — above the five-year average of 16.4% and the 10-year average of 10.3%.
If that holds, it will mark the second consecutive earnings growth rate above 20% for the index and the seventh straight quarter of double-digit growth.
Also reporting earnings this week were ASML Holding N.V. (ASML), Morgan Stanley (MS), BlackRock (BLK), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), and United Airlines Holdings (UAL).

Wall Street's patience with Netflix (NFLX) appears to be wearing thin.
Netflix shares plunged into the red at the opening bell on Friday as Wall Street digested a lackluster second quarter earnings report. The streaming giant's third-quarter revenue outlook missed expectations, and management offered little to reassure investors about slowing growth and engagement trends.
Analysts said the earnings report did little to ease concerns over Netflix's growth.
"At the moment, it's in no man's land," Bank of America Global Securities senior media ******* yst Jessica Reif Ehrlich told Yahoo Finance, of the company. "There's just not enough here to move the stock in any direction. There was nothing for the bulls, but there was certainly something for the bears."
One possible catalyst for the stock is an acquisition, Ehrlich told Yahoo Finance. Netflix walked away from a bidding war with Paramount Skydance (PSKY) over Warner Bros. Discovery in February. Investors could perceive a new deal that brings fresh IP through the door as a strong move for the streamer.

On July 9, Citi ****** yst Jason Bazinet lowered the firm's price target on Netflix to $100 from $115 and kept a Buy rating on the shares.

Bazinet also said potential new tiers could help Netflix segment more effectively, support top-line growth, and reignite investor interest, while M&A could help fortify its intellectual property position.

There are a couple of good reasons to consider buying Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) ahead of this week's second-quarter financial update. It continues to operate the world's leading premium streaming service. More than just a stateside phenomenon, it now generates more than half of its revenue internationally.
Netflix has grown despite initiating modest membership price hikes almost every year. It uses its economies of scale to spend more on content than its smaller rivals, knowing it can divide that over its global audience of more than 325 million homes. However, the best reason to own Netflix ahead of Thursday afternoon's reveal of fresh financials is its stock chart.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
As the owner of one of the more surprising performance charts, Netflix shares have plummeted 42% over the past year. Netflix stock is now trading at 24 times trailing earnings, its lowest multiple ever outside the market's overall sell-off in 2022.
Trailing revenue and earnings have never been higher, with double-digit percentage growth on both ends of the income statement. Consolidation in the industry -- even with Netflix failing to gobble up any of the smaller rivals that have hit the market -- should benefit the platform. Fewer players make it easier to avoid price wars from cutthroat competition.

Analysts have been raising their revenue and price targets for Nvidia Inc. (NVDA) stock. However, NVDA has been flat since April 29, almost two and a half months ago. That makes shorting out-of-the-money (OTM) NVDA put options very worthwhile. This article will show why.
NVDA closed Friday, July 10, at $210.96, up from a recent low of $192.53 on June 26. But on April 29, it was at $209.25, so it's up less than 1% in the past 2+ months. That means it's trading water.

Battered Netflix (NFLX) investors may end up tuning in to another dose of bad news when the company reports earnings on July 16.
Quick insight: "Given currency movement and a lack of hit programs, we believe more investors are expecting Netflix to lower full year numbers," KeyBanc Capital Markets **** yst Justin Patterson warned in a note on Monday.
The Street may be surprised negatively if Netflix does cut its outlook. According to Yahoo Finance AlphaSpace data, **** yst profit estimates on Netflix for 2026 have remained steady over the past 60 days and have fallen slightly for 2027.
But Netflix stock is trading as if another guidance letdown is in the cards. The stock is down 11% in the past month, bringing its year-to-date slide to 22%. Shares have plunged 41% over the past year.
Don't forget: Investors were left frustrated in April when Netflix failed to raise its full-year 2026 revenue guidance range from $50.7 billion to $51.7 billion.

Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) stock fell 24% in the first half of the year, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. Investors are worried about future opportunities, acquisitions, and the departure of founder and chairman Reed Hastings.

Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Investors have counted it out before in the past, and it has always rebounded, surprising the market with innovative ways to keep its growth engine moving. From the very beginning, when it changed from a video drop-off company to take on the emerging streaming industry, it has stayed ahead of the curve and proved its prowess. And the naysayers who didn't think its content could match the big studios are now watching it produce top-rated series and films that keep subscribers engaged.
It seemed to be in danger, again, when the pandemic started and every studio created its own streaming network. But while many other networks were acquired or merged, Netflix is still at the top of the heap. It successfully rolled out an ad-supported streaming tier to stay competitive, and it now showcases live sporting events as well as other live entertainment, and it also offers games.

It's not the holiday shopping season, but it's easy to see why Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) could feel like Christmas in July right now. Shares of the streaming video pioneer have fallen out of favor, a contrast to the overall rising market.
This could be an opportunity as we head into earnings season. With its highly anticipated second-quarter results now less than 10 days away, Netflix's historically cheap valuation, and several bidding wars for smaller media platforms over the past two years, it could be a good time to binge-invest in the leading premium player.

There is no single quarterly event that can move a stock as consistently as its earnings release, and investors have been circling the afternoon of July 16 on their calendars for weeks. Netflix will be one of the first consumer-facing businesses to report fresh financials this earnings season, and expectations are modest.
The $12.574 billion that Netflix was modeling for Q2 revenue back in April is a 13.5% increase, its weakest top-line move in more than a year. The $3.327 billion that Netflix sees on the bottom line represents an even more disappointing 6.5% uptick. Slowing revenue growth and contracting operating and net income margins aren't a good look for a company.

RiverPark Advisors, an investment advisory firm and sponsor of the RiverPark family of mutual funds, released its "RiverPark Large Growth Fund" Q1 2026 investor letter. A copy of the letter can be downloaded here. The US stock market declined in the quarter with the S&P 500 index ("S&P") and the Russell 1000 Growth index ("RLG") falling 4.33% and 9.78%, respectively. Markets started the year positively but became volatile mainly due to increased tensions with Iran. The Federal Reserve kept rates unchanged in January and February. Still, rising energy prices and weaker economic data sparked concerns about stagflation, leading investors to rethink the timing and scale of future rate cuts. Investor sentiment shifted from growth and tech stocks amid inflation, interest rate, and supply chain concerns. Opposing AI-driven rotations heavily influenced investor sentiment, affecting growth stocks—enthusiasm grew for semiconductor firms linked to AI infrastructure spending, while enterprise software companies, viewed as vulnerable to AI disruption, faced pessimism. The Fund's software holdings were sold off heavily, while the underweight in semiconductor companies, which benefited most from AI infrastructure spending, affected the performance. Despite challenges, the firm remains confident in the long-term prospects and valuations of its portfolio companies. Please review the Fund's top five holdings to gain insights into their key selections for 2026.
In its first-quarter 2026 investor letter, RiverPark Large Growth Fund highlighted Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX). Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) is a leading subscription-based streaming entertainment platform. On July 2, 2026, Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) closed at $77.65 per share. One-month return of Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) was -7.06%, and its shares lost 41.12% over the past 52 weeks. Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) has a market capitalization of $326.97 billion.
RiverPark Large Growth Fund stated the following regarding Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) in its Q1 2026 investor letter:
"Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX): NFLX was the fifth-largest contributor for the quarter, gaining approximately 3% and significantly outperforming a sharply down market. Netflix benefited from multiple positive developments during Q1. In January, the company's decision to walk away from its proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery removed a major strategic and regulatory overhang from the stock, allowing investors to refocus on Netflix's strong fundamentals. The company's Q4 2025 earnings report highlighted full-year 2025 revenue of approximately $45.2 billion, an operating margin of nearly 29.5%, and global paid membership crossing 325 million, with management guiding for 2026 revenue growth of 12–14% and operating margin expansion to 31.5%. Netflix's subscription-based, global revenue model also made it a natural defensive holding during the March geopolitical-focused selloff.
