Do you smell what Bezos is cooking? Amazon could buy the WWE, analyst predicts

Amazon could potentially tag-team with the world's biggest wrestling brand to gain an advantage in the streaming wars, according to a Needham. Not only could the Jeff Bezos-led tech retail juggernaut buy the streaming rights to World Wrestling Entertainment content, but it also could potentially buy the whole company one day, Needham analyst Laura Martin said. "We believe that such a licensing deal would put AMZN in the best spot to purchase all of WWE, whenever the family is ready to exit," Martin said. WWE's over-the-top streaming platform would be attractive to Amazon or other streaming services because it brings in a loyal fanbase, unlike new shows the companies are developing. "WWE's live programming is highly differentiated and its Raw, Smackdown and NXT brands are worth more than being any one of 500 series that have no builtin audience or brand," Martin said.

Netflix is spiraling toward a 'recipe for disaster,' investor warns after downgrade

"My concern here is that we'll retest that trend line going back to those September lows of $290." "A break below that level would certainly raise a yellow warning flag on the stock," Maley said. "If it breaks below that lower line, which is basically at about 260 right now, that's going to be a problem and that's going to change the flag from a yellow one to a red one." For Maley, the absolute "line in the sand" for Netflix was its late-December 2018 lows around $250. With Netflix shares trading at a sky-high 93 times price-to-earnings multiple, Tatro worried the company wouldn't be able to make good on that valuation.

Here are the biggest analyst calls of the day: Roku, Netflix, Tesla, Alphabet, Facebook & more

Needham's Laura Martin raised her price target on the stock and said Roku would be the "winning aggregator" of TV and films. The stock rebounded in the premarket on Martin's call after plunging 15% on Monday following a downgrade by Morgan Stanley. "In 2020, Roku's key upside valuation driver will be accelerating subscription SVOD revenues, which lowers investment risk, we believe. In the US, we believe YouTube is the winning aggregator of user-generated videos and Roku will be the winning aggregator of TV and films. We raise our Roku PT to $200, from $150, based on falling risk."

Roku shares plunge after streaming device maker breaks earnings win streak

Shares of Roku plunged on Thursday, after the streaming devices company posted third-quarter results that missed Wall Street's expectation following multiple quarters of blowout growth. Roku reported a third-quarter loss of 22 cents a share, worse than the 18 cents a share loss analysts surveyed by FactSet expected. Roku had beaten analysts' expectations for quarterly earnings in seven of its last eight reports. RBC Capital similarly pointed out Roku's advantage as a distributor, as it get revenue from the streaming services of Apple, Disney, Amazon and Netflix. Roku's stock dropped as much as 16% in trading from its previous close of $141.05 a share.

Netflix could lose 10 million subscribers next year if it doesn't cut prices, Needham analyst says

A button for launching the Netflix application is seen on a remote control in this photo illustration in Warsaw, Poland on April 25, 2019. Netflix needs a cheaper option to survive the streaming wars, according to Needham. The firm said the streaming platform needs advertising dollars to supplement about half of Netflix's current subscription cost. "NFLX's price point is too high given the competitive streaming landscape. We project NFLX will lose 10mm US subs during 2020 unless it offers a service prices below its core $13/month service," Needham analyst Laura Martin said in a note to clients on Friday.

WWE gets smacked down by Wall Street

You would think this would be a great time for the WWE: It has new TV deals with Fox and Comcast's USA that are financially beneficial for the company. "People are trying to wrap their head around the international deals. Expectations have been reset," Ross said, adding that this creates uncertainty about the earnings and revenue outlook for WWE in 2020. Analysts and investors are hoping that the company will provide more details about the international TV deals when it reports earnings on October 31. So even though investors have taken a steel chair to WWE's stock as of late, WWE could wind up making a heroic comeback and once again emerge as a Wall Street champion.
