Motley Fool Money

$70 billion and Chill

09 Dec 2025

Description

$70 billion can get a lot… but in the case of Netflix, it can’t buy anything better than Warner Bros Discovery. Host Emily Flippen is joined by Jason Hall and Dan Caplinger to break down what it means for investors, streamers, and how to evaluate mega-mergers to determine when they’re accretive or dilutive. They cover: - What Netflix is actually buying - and why Warner Bros said “yes” to Netflix over Paramount and Comcast. - Whether or not this smart capital allocation or peak hubris on the part of Netflix - A framework for judging mega-mergers in your own portfolio and how to evaluate when they do (or don’t!) make sense Companies discussed: WBD, NFLX, DIS, PARA, CMCSA Host: Emily Flippen, Dan Caplinger, Jason Hall Producer: Anand Chokkavelu Engineer: Dan Boyd Disclosure: Advertisements are sponsored content and provided for informational purposes only.
