Why is Netflix Up Today?

Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) shares are trading higher today as several bullish analyst actions and strong user‐tier metrics drive investor optimism.

  • Analyst upgrades and price‐target hikes
    • Robert W. Baird raised its price target from $1,200 to $1,300 and reiterated an “Outperform” rating, implying roughly 9% upside.
    • Canaccord Genuity boosted its target from $1,200 to $1,380 and maintained a “Buy” recommendation, signaling nearly 16% potential gain.
    • A MarketBeat‐tracked upgrade lifted shares about 0.9% as the broader Street adopts a more bullish stance.
  • Robust growth in the ad‐supported tier
    • Netflix’s ad‐supported plan has swelled to 94 million monthly active users, fueling confidence in its new revenue stream.
    • Positive commentary from BMO Capital and TipRanks highlights strong ad‐tier metrics and the long‐term upside of an advertising offering.
  • Institutional and insider flows
    • Siemens Fonds Invest GmbH more than doubled its stake, while Skye Global Management added a new position, reflecting selective accumulation.
    • Conversely, Shellback Capital and Snowden Capital reduced holdings by 25% and 35%, respectively—moves viewed as portfolio rebalancing rather than a call on fundamentals.
    • Minor share dispositions by U.S. Representatives (Julie Johnson, Josh Gottheimer and Bruce Westerman) are not material to share supply or sentiment.

Overall, Netflix’s stock momentum today is being underpinned by renewed analyst enthusiasm, a rapidly expanding ad tier and steady institutional demand, outweighing isolated profit‐taking by some funds.
