Netflix stock slides after earnings as $83 billion Warner Bros deal freezes buybacks

New York, January 21, 2026, 13:36 (EST) — Regular session Netflix shares dropped roughly 4.5% to $83.38 by midday Wednesday, continuing their slide amid the company’s bid for Warner Bros. Discovery’s studio and streaming units. Shares of Warner Bros. rose about 1%, while Paramount Skydance edged down a bit. Netflix shares fell after the company posted holiday-quarter revenue and earnings that topped Wall Street estimates Tuesday night. But its 2026 revenue forecast, ranging from $50.7 billion to $51.7 billion, came in slightly below expectations at the low end. Paid subscribers surpassed 325 million, and CFO Spencer Neumann said advertising revenue

Trump’s Greenland tariff threat jolts Wall Street again as S&P 500’s biggest losers pile up

New York, January 21, 2026, 10:47 EST Wall Street clawed back some ground Wednesday following its steepest single-day drop in three months, as investors parsed President Donald Trump’s comments on Greenland and trade at Davos. By 9:38 a.m. ET, the Dow was up 0.42%, the S&P 500 had gained 0.40%, and the Nasdaq ticked 0.20% higher.

Netflix stock slides premarket as Warner Bros deal costs eclipse an earnings beat

NEW YORK, January 21, 2026, 09:26 EST — Premarket Netflix shares slid about 7% in premarket trading on Wednesday, extending the post-earnings drop as investors weighed a pause in share repurchases and the price tag of the company’s all-cash bid for Warner Bros Discovery assets. (Yahoo Finance) The move matters because Netflix is trying to convince shareholders it can fund an $82.7 billion deal without blunting returns, at a moment when markets are already edgy after a sharp Wall Street selloff and ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump’s speech in Davos. (Reuters) Netflix’s results did not fully calm nerves. The

Netflix stock slips premarket as Warner Bros bid swamps earnings beat

New York, Jan 21, 2026, 04:51 EST — Premarket Netflix shares dipped in premarket trading Wednesday, sliding further after its earnings beat. Investors remain cautious, balancing the strong results against the $82.7 billion bid for Warner Bros Discovery assets. The deal is stealing the spotlight. Netflix’s fourth-quarter results beat estimates, yet the focus has shifted to financing, regulatory hurdles, and the possibility of higher costs if a rival bidder jumps in. This is significant because Netflix has relied on strict cost control and buybacks to bolster both margins and its share price. A major cash acquisition changes that approach—at least

LOS ANGELES, Jan 20, 2026, 13:50 PST Netflix barely surpassed Wall Street’s revenue forecasts for the holiday quarter and reported surpassing 325 million subscribers.
