Netflix Faces Antitrust Scrutiny: Impact on Valuation and Momentum

Netflix is facing active U.S. Department of Justice antitrust investigations into its proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, which could impact the company's growth, pricing, and competition in the streaming and content production markets. The scrutiny comes as the stock is trading around $82.2, with a 3-year return of 136.6% and a 5-year return of 47.7%. Investors will be watching for any changes to the deal structure, potential remedies, or conditions that could affect Netflix's future operating flexibility.
