WB

pretty much this. where's the posts in this sub about DT clearly manipulating tylenol's purchase or head of the FCC clearly signaling that only Paramount will be allowed to buy WB?

Somebody sends that WB meme

SlfImpr

Yes, I am a WSB insider 🤣🤣🤣 I buy when the whole WB gang turns into bers. I did that in April and again yesterday

LessAd8017

I started on RH and they blocked the stocks I traded for no reason so I moved to WB. No complaints.

GGTheEnd

To be fair my grandpa still doesn't own a cellphone because he thinks they are for retards. That's how I assume WB thinks of AI and quantum computing. 

EvangelineRain

What drives their ability to beat the market (and cover their management fee) without WB? Genuine question, I’m not familiar enough with their business lines beyond knowing they have a real estate brokerage.

EmotionNo8367

As a holder of both Apple and Netflix, I'd prefer the former the former to get WB.

Totallycomputername

Sold my Disney and feel they are a good position right now. They are considering buying WB and just well positioned as the powerhouse of streaming. 

LostAbbott

There are a lot of people in here talking about the WB IP, which yeah is the obvious answer.  However, they real value at WB is the back lot and their network.  WB has by far and away the largest back lot of any of the studios, they can literally turn a show out from every decade of the 18th and 19th century and probably 20 others as well.  All from their back lot.  Cars, costumes, lighting, signs, carpet, etc...  they have an amazing number of people who can pull that out and make that show.  It saves hundred of thousands of dollars(sometimes per episode) when you can tap your own resources.  Then you start to look at all of the talent behind the camera and you really start to see future value from anything your writers room can come up with.  If Netflix pulls this off I might have to figure out how to double down...

Year 2040 : WB still holding cash and waiting for correction

InvestingArmy

The market is propped up by 7 companies right now, those 7 companies are “burning” more cash on than ever in history on speculative AGI… WB doesn’t want his cash to be burned by these companies in this AI bubble.

Uniqueusername_54

I mean, WB is kinda in a position where they can handle a bit more risk than the rest of us lol. The perks having fuck around money.

I feel like every platform has its plus and minuses so I play their strengths. E*trade is no bs, it does not hold your hand as something like MooMoo or webull. MM/WB are good for analyzing charts in relevance to news, earnings reports, insights, valuations, inflows, options interest, Insiders etc. Pretty much anyone can download one of their apps and get to investing with real data at their fingers. Trading is best on E*Trade, there's virtually no free insights other than earnings on their website. I will only trade options there, the prices are better and they seem to move better I don't know why. In general I feel like the platform was made for day trading or long-term investing your research being majority off the platform. But it works without fail. Also if you set any limit order it will automatically fill in your favor even when you fat finger a number It will ignore and jump to the market price. Webull has filled me dollars above from the same mistake

NotEntirelyShure

It’s more that nobody is interested in the linear channels from both WB & D although yes, Discovery is mainly linear channels. But people aren’t falling over themselves for CNN or Turner. The streaming service is the sexy part of the business. Linear is still a cash cow but is declining rapidly and saddled with debt.

gpelayo15

Amazon would be tight. They throw money down for production like it's nobodies business, look at fallout and the Lord of the rings show. If they get WB they'd bank roll every project 🔥🔥

KLYNW6055

Use a better brokerage, Schwab has been the best for me so far, low if any fees, instant transfers, and they actually look out for your assets, plus I can set warnings and get all news articles about each ticker. WB is clean, RH is easy, but they charge a lot for premiums. Margin on Schwab is great as well I've received maybe one margin call in 3 years.

KneeControl

WB already ruined DC.

yellacopter

The head of films at Apple recently said they weren’t pursuing WB. I don’t understand how Netflix does this either. It confuses the brand, unless they plan on operating it separately. And then there’s the question of theatrical. Amazon could buy, but they still haven’t figured out WTF they’re doing with MGM. So I’d be surprised if they felt this was the right time. My money is on Paramount, but I would much rather see the studio go to Apple. But who knows?

CoolBestSmart

I was at the paramount lot last month and they had WB trucks driving around.

ghostalker4742

I wouldn't bet on Netflix. Their co-CEO [said Tuesday](https://finance.yahoo.com/news/netflix-co-ceo-on-wbd-buyout-rumors-we-have-no-interest-in-owning-legacy-media-networks-230952030.html) that they want the content, not the network itself. > “We’ve been very clear in the past that we have no interest in owning legacy media networks,” Sarandos said on the company’s third quarter earnings call. “There’s no change there.” WB is more likely to go with a buyer that will take them in full, rather than go through the process of splitting the company into pieces.

Same_Bag711

If they bid for WB and buy it the film industry is actually completely fucked in every way.

Wide_Pomegranate_439

WAS. It was. WB is betting on AMZN and KO recently. [https://nai500.com/blog/2025/08/warren-buffetts-two-most-valued-long-term-holdings-coca-cola-and-amazon/](https://nai500.com/blog/2025/08/warren-buffetts-two-most-valued-long-term-holdings-coca-cola-and-amazon/) my bet is on Amazon, wide moat company with zillion ties to the real economy. Still suffering from the tariff beatings and lackluster US economy, meaning there is a huge upside once the smoke clears.

SoCal_IrieGuy

Of course its not. But it is "probably the best business I know in the world" (WB)

fakemedicines

It has been slowly bleeding ever since WB's announcement.

jasaman74

WB no issues this morning

ExDiv2000

Just be aware that if the Bubble bursts Berkshire stock price will also go down significantly. And some people see it overvalued atm, including WB himself. So buying Berkshire at this valuation as a hedge against the crash ….. idk if that is a good idea. Maybe in the very long run Berkshire will come positive. Also if WB leaves or dies stock will go south. Its a great company but you need a very long time horizon and also diamond hands.

Rehire WB. BRK on a sucky trend. WB had to hire the most boring ceo.

Freak the fuck out and sell everything right now. It’s over. - WB

Lucidendinq

“Stocks sell at silly prices from time to time” - WB I would buy the stable ones that are at a silly price like GOOGL, MSFT, NVDA etc. NVDA reached $90 during the last tariffs’ crash.

This is normal negotioation, they are about to own tiktok, ellison wants WB and has the money and resources to make it happen

Defiant_Regular3738

I saw a tell tale sign this stock is going up soon. My wife created an account today and it was her free stock. For two years or so my best performing investments were the few free stonks I got from RH and WB. That’s all I need to see. Amazon is likely discounted right now if you assume their top ten market cap peers are valued fairly. You could argue the valuations are nonsense but people are just having trouble digesting the new normal market.

Agreeable-Race8818

Whitney Bouston? Idk who WB is but real

Santifile

I 100% agree with you. Rvsn, as all other Israeli companies will benefit from the stability and security that a peace treaty will bring. Im sure that we will see a push on the stock very very soon...Paying close attention to it and tightening up to go to the moon... As WB said: "**Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful**"

Rosebunse

WB did very well this year, but their success was very delicate. The studio must be allowed to stay independent and I'm not sure they will be. Also, I have very low expectations for the HP reboot, but that isn't really the Ellisons fault. There are the parks, but as we saw with Disney and the Disney Adults rebelling over Kimmel, the Ellisons potentially have made the Universal parks political targets.

Bob_the_peasant

Oracle line down was larry withdrawing the amount necessary to buy WB for PSKY, as a treat for his son’s good behavior this week

im-pickle-riiiiiick

I sold tesla for a £500 profit in 2019, was probably £5k worth, thought I was the next WB making 10% in less than a year. I don't want to know how much I'd have if I held...

fakemedicines

I have some shares but when WB dies the stock will become a falling knife prob for a long time and I'll double down then.

LazyTitan39

My crackpot theory is he’s hurting them so they can’t buy WB before Ellison does.

peridotdragon33

Haha I think it’d WB

Life_is_too_short_

This is taken out of context. Realize the bigger picture WB holds for DECADES. Can you?

WB said if you know what you are doing then it’s fine. The problem is most people don’t know what they are doing lol

Snuffaluff_jgb

This is my first WB buy. I'll be judging this entire thread based on it https://preview.redd.it/0uovgaf94rsf1.png?width=631&format=png&auto=webp&s=66d56d08d740e8cb2484a5e82dc7d12a771c01f3

Ship_Rekt

Foolish take. Why would Netflix want to get into legacy theater? One thing tech companies like Netflix are good at is sticking to their core competency, and most of WB assets would be worse off in their hands than they would otherwise.

Big-View-1061

One of the reason why WB has started doing a lot of financing instead of outright buying is why would anybody sell anything to warren buffet. If he wants to buy then it's clearly worth a good deal more, unless he owns a similar company with a lot of potential synergies With financing, he lends you his brand of confidence, and that comes at a premium, which he can use to extract a better rate.

WallStreetDunce

Eating a buffet on WB..OXY to da moon!!

Bob_the_peasant

GUH, is PSKY dead if Ellison doesn’t have the money for WB?

Vinyl-addict

Bro I bought a couple PSKY puts with the expiry a week too far in. They expired worthless today and literally at noon “Ellisons may not have enough cash for WB deal” 🤣 Back to breakeven we go

SuspiciousStress1

I went to WeBull, then decided to stay with RH, but use WB for research(&sometimes to watch things-I have been known to have a tablet with WBopen & RH on my phone doing the actual trading) Works best for me, we all have to figure out what works best for us....even if that involves multiple platforms!!!

Bob_the_peasant

Larry is selling stock to help his kids buy WB for PSKY

noobelore

Yep me too, holding both what calls did you buy? Was in before the q2 filings. MB is estimated to have 20 percent of his stake in LULU, I still think no major significant moves until they reverse the US growth trend. We'll see, as for UNH - no luck is required. It was an absolute lock. That was probably the easiest trade I've made, hardest part was avoiding the plethora of noise around the purchase. Still is to some degree. After WB bought, it was an "Omg, I'm not as dumb as I look" moment."

SuspiciousStress1

Once you understand it all, its not confusing, but not always necessary. If I am doing some epic DD, WB is the way, if I am momentum trading or gut level trading, RH has the easy platform(that can be expanded).

SuspiciousStress1

I agree & I still keep WB for deep analysis(for trades that require that), however for day to day trading, I prefer the simplicity of RH 🤷‍♀️

AgitatedStranger9698

Access to the library might make sense. WB owns DC... DC is getting some great traction and their biggest competition is Marvel(Disney). Given Disney just shit itself in the foot backing fascism....Netflix could gain some advantage. That being said...Netflix doesnt need an advantage....

vsingh93

It actually kinda makes sense for Netflix to want something like WB. First, they got the money. Second, this allows them to have theatrical releases while maintaining their streaming only option for Netflix.

DuePomegranate

Warren Buffett is like the world’s best at timing the market. It was a full time job for him and supported with many hired staff. You and I are not WB. WB tells ordinary people to buy and hold the S&P500.

Bob_the_peasant

I’m betting on PSKY because Larry+Gubberment is gonna get them to approve the WB deal easily I think

Bob_the_peasant

Right on, same date but I have 20c I grabbed earlier this week. That’d be great if they could clear 25 or even 30 with WB offer

ffa1985

Does that mean libertarians are suckers? I suspected that the superiority of the free market was just cold war propaganda masquerading as economic theory. Can't really blame people for believing it, though. Just about every institution pays lip service to the idea that governments should stay out of economic development. The US kickstarted the modern South Korean economy by giving them turnkey factories, buying their products at market rate, then equipping South Koreans so they could join the war in Vietnam. Of course when it comes to the IMF/WB the line given to countries in Africa and LatAm is the old libertarian bs about central planning being bad, but presumably that's part of the scam the West is running on them.

sportingpool

Ackman has for a decade declared himself to be the next WB. he also threw himself at Buffett multiple times, but got ignored. Ackman is okay as an investor, gotten better, but nothing special. Also, first and foremost, he is a fee whore

DegaussedMixtape

The AI bubble is real. I heard a stat that there was more spending on AI companies in the US last year then ALL consumer spending combined. The money is just pouring into the AI space. It's real spend as the money goes from investors to AI companies, to chipmakers and datacenters, to employees and power companies, but it is propping up the whole economy. Either AI is what the accelerationists think it is and the spend will continue for many years to come as everyone races for their share of the pie or people realize that these tools are not coming to change our world and the whole thing deflates and reveals what is actually going on in the economy which ain't great. If you want to gamble, you either bet for AI or against AI. There are side knock on things going on, like Larry Ellison becoming the richest man in the world on the back of AI means that he is free to give his son as much money as he wants to take over Hollywood. Paramount (Ellison) is about to make an offer for 20 - 30/share for Warner Brothers which is higher than it's current valuation. You could look for downstream effects of this money and buy something like WB.

Vinyl-addict

Not on short term unless the WB bid goes through

Master_Xenu

Only DD I've seen is they are buying WB or might buy them. Other than that they are in huge debt due to purchasing UFC rights and SKyDance. WB is valuated at like $45 billion, I don't think it's going to happen but who knows!

First-Trick-2547

It’s hard to say timing wise. WB is such a massive company the actual full merger would likely take a while. No doubt it’ll happen though. They’ve been deep in water struggling since covid, and skydance has major momentum with its already acquired paramount merger.

Regular-Hotel892

It's not a fact just because you say that it is. My "source" is the institution that produces this product.

why is WB going up

Clown_Shoe

People need to get on the PSKY bandwagon. Building towards being a streaming juggernaut if this WB deal goes through.

TedwardDavis

That's dicey considering nobody knows how they're going to finance the WB purchase.

Any else seeing different prices for PRPH? RH showing it as .5635 and my WB app showing it at 0.5550?

Mysterious_Fox5976

Apple’s studio arm has no direction other than to make glossy but mid shows/films with A-list talent that “moves the needle.” And while a library the size and caliber of HBO/WB would be incredible for the Apple, not everything fits under branding (which they control SO tightly), so they’re prob more intent on producing their own shows and tv than acquiring an entire library. If anything, Apple TV+ is a bonus, a blip, a nice add-on for a company with a market cap of $3.4T.

amorejuicex

Yup on RH, E*Trade, fidelity, WB, Sofi and Moomoo haha wanted to to a test. Have only asked for IPO shares for FIG and BLSH before but so far I’ve been most impressed with Sofi - they gave the most for KLAR and the second most for FIGR.

My average in UNH stock is about $238 per share. I’m not worried about it and who owns it. I’m well aware WB and other institutions bought a lot of it recently. But you do realize the stock fell because they are being investigated for Medicare fraud, right? It didn’t just fall bc their ceo got shot and unalived.

LemonFrequent2036

I don’t call myself Oracle of Omaha in similar scenario. But I jokingly tell my friends that I am Kathy woods V2.0 Just couple of big hits doesn’t make us WB

SaltyTruthteller

Personally, yes. There's a system in place based on sound, proven principles. There is a great deal of knowledge among his staff, many of which have been with him for decades. His organization was never a one-man show, it is a well designed organization that has proven to be flexible enough over time to generate a steady stream of above average returns. I'm not a finance guru, but I do understand organizations. Please sell your stock when WB passes so I can buy more at a discount.

Safe-Drag3878

Are you illiterate? I mentioned WB in the first sentences. Learn how to read.

WetFart-Machine

OP wants to pretend that they came up with it and has nothing to do with WB

Dazzling_Bottle_3348

OK Cool. My point is he was a gambler, and he did admit in the end that only WB style buy and hold makes really sense on WS. Of course you have to know whta to buy and when. IF YOU ALREADY KNOW THAN BUY AND ADD. Well it is my opinion based on my crazy life. Made and lost milions not like JL at the same time for me it was very intersting expirience

A1L1V2

He measures and valuates businesses differently from you. He first valuates a business has a number in mind, then checks how the markets think the value is. My guess, he has sold because the market is over valuing the business at its current price, and he sees macro conditions differently than you. But only WB can answer that question.

Difficult-Roof-3191

If you actually look at WB's picks, they really aren't that great. His returns are primarily driven by a few good picks. The rest have been iffy at best.

Loose_Hornet4126

That's why I bought puts. When the pumpers have on WB usually it's cooked

Beautiful_Attorney18

I wonder if from a “corporate standpoint” it’s all reasonable. He is an investor and preaches for higher corporate taxes(way higher btw). Also on his meetings you know he is genuinely a good person. So I guess it’s fine. Honestly a few months ago I thought about purchasing UNH, but between the “controversial” CEO, now deceased, and the Medicare fraud investigation, I decided to stay clear. There are more interesting stocks out there. Also WB has to focus on the mamutes … a mid/small cap would not make a difference for them.

phatelectribe

Which is fine if you’re looking at a multi decade hold, which is what WB does.

IntelligentTank355

Do you feel okay with it though? I feel the sane about meta and I'm okay with it. When news cane out that WB bought unh I thought about it, but it just gave me nausea, you know? I think it's fine if you could make money out of something and you turn it down. I ended up not buying Bitcoin either, and it turns out that the mining farms are a noise+ vibration horror for the communities close to them. Just search " bitcoin mining noise" on YouTube and abstain for pulling your hair out. It just seems gratuitous. Nobody addresses the real issues and impact of these businesses that go greeen, green.

diablo135

If everyone in here, complaining went back to 1956 and had the same money and connections and family as WB, you still wouldn't accomplish anything that he did Why can't you guys just recognize his skill, why does it always have to be "yeah but....."

FarTartar

I like WB because the desktop app is pretty nice. I don't trade off the mobile app tho

Kjkenney602

Everyone knows WB prefers bananas. He thinks apples are mealy af, which, is he really wrong? Idk ..not investment advice

Low-Introduction-565

yep agree, this is a good explanation. Nobody could look at the long term chart of any of the big indexes and deny that the most likely pattern is long term upward growth, so buy and hold makes a lot of sense. For individual stocks, like WB buys, this is a totally different story.

risktaker_better

Entry points matter... Hence why WB bought UNH and Nucor shares when the price went down to attractive levels for purchase.
