Netflix: Look Past the Headline “Beat”

In the wake of 3Q16, Netflix (NFLX) is up nearly 20%. Is this price reaction justified? Have investors gotten too caught up in the “membership beat” or recently lowered expectations?

Tesla: Running Out of Energy? – Danger Zone

Why Suitors Are Leaving Twitter at the Altar – Danger Zone
