Netflix Down 46%: Is It a Better Buy Than Big Tech Now?
Netflix has shed nearly half its value from last summer's peak. Here's why that pullback could be your entry point.

While the Magnificent Seven stocks and private darlings like SpaceX keep grabbing headlines, Netflix is quietly offering a discount that's hard to ignore.
The streaming giant built a moat that most tech companies would kill for — a global subscriber base, a crackdown on password sharing that's already paying off, and an advertising tier that's still in early innings.

Chasing private-market hype while a proven public compounder trades at a steep discount is the kind of mistake that looks obvious in hindsight.
