Saying he is ass is a bit much but I always thought WB goes home at night and just giggles himself silly about how people think/thought he is just this regular guy who really does hate that his secretary pays a higher tax rate than him. Because someone who works in his industry would know how to structure compensation so she wouldn’t. Not to mention the 15 year fight he had with the IRS refusing to pay the taxes he owes and then after enough taxpayer money was wasted he said “well ok then”. I think he is a master manipulator and it doesn’t surprise me that he is a Doty descendant too. And I guarantee he has people who trade for him but he is never going to talk about that because then people will do it. And when they lose, they will sue him.Because he knows how stupid the general public is or was. His generation is the lead paint generation, the mental deficiency is real for a lot of them. Have a nice day
Warren Buffet had the benefit of dad’s investment company and being part of the inner circle. Then time in the market and having an advantage of buying at distressed times. He completely missed the tech revolution despite being buds with the main guy of the 70s. I think I would definitely rather be Bill Gates or NVDA guy than WB.

Why didn't you sell at the WB sale bullshit pump? NFLX was always going to go down
NFLX really got punished for trying to buy WB. "Oh, you wanted to buy WB? Neat, here's a permanent 10% discount on your market cap just for looking at it."
Why would Netflix buy imax its counterintuitive to what they do as a business. This makes much more sense for Disney or Paramount-WB.
1. [Over 50% of stocks under perform bonds.](https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2900447) 2. [4% of stocks account for the majority of the market's gains.](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0304405X18301521) It's skewed by a few things though. Loser stocks die and get recorded as losers. Winning stocks either: stay winning, become losers, or go through M&A/Privatized. Winners keep winning while losers keep losing. This creates this bias. Even if we account for that skew, OP is minimizing the risk while trivializing how difficult it would be to win at stock picking like Warren Buffet or insiders. That's like picking out the few winners in WSB like u/deepfuckingvalue , u/analfarmer2m , Intel Nana, or the few survivors and then conclude that investing with WSB (rather than inversing it) is a good idea. I would disregard OP since they skew toward [stupid.](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXag_eP3YV4bGCLGT-7OqM_S7XHFLnHMPwFSs3sKn7hVYTByamNDsK0rjY1CgYvXDfO7HayqLHb8CtbRjMDuj1MymDjVE2bWKH_WQ7vKuA_N25WNHSWao6IcLOuxU80dVsYXPb3tW6Tfzl/s1600/axis_4.png) They are the type WB/CM warn about. The 90IQ guys who think they are 120IQ.
Having been in the market for 30 years and followed WB for almost as long, I think it is fair to say that he is not an advocate of timing the market. He is always invested, however he bides his time for making new investments. BRK is continuously accumulating cash, and as a good value investor, he waits until he finds the right investment at the right price.
That POS gave me a 50k haircut the other day, thinking it was going to have a stellar earnings report. That is on me for not doing my DD better (CEO retiring, WB deal lost, hiking their prices). Never again.
WB always chased the undervalued, low PE compaies and Berkshire became one; pe -14 !
He's long said that finding values in the current milieu has been difficult, hence the large cash reserves. A correction would provide likely the opportunity to buy things BH has been eying, only cheaper. WB has also said repeatedly that a poor company but a good value is still a bad investment, preferring well-run companies as a fair price. Ultimately though, despite the history of bon mots that investors cling to like the Gospel, BH's performance this past decade was in huge part based on their significant stake in Apple. The other performance was simply rounding errors.
The guy who whimpered out of his executive role with $350B+ in cash on the sideline? I'm a WB lover like the rest of you, but he really broke his own rules at the end He could have done a stock repurchase and made hundreds of billions. Love the guy, but he was indecisive at the end
First of all to be clear Warren Buffett is RETIRED. Greg Abel runs the company. He’s been trained by Buffett for many many years. Do I think Buffett is still involved sure, but we need to think about that. In addition he owns massive amounts of Apple BUT that was bought by one of the Teds or a Greg, because as Warren has said repeatedly he doesn’t buy companies he doesn’t understand and Apple/Tech was something that he didn’t understand. But that’s the point: being WB, he’s smart enough to hire people younger than himself who do understand and to listen to their advice which is why BH owns so much Apple and it’s doing well. But Abel is doing exactly what Buffett trained him to do which is a fair company AT a A FAIR PRICE. The money is sitting there so that when he sees a company come along that he thinks is the next wave and is undervalued that he can buy at a great price it’s there to be deployed.
It might have been subsidized and the lower license fees. Take for example Friends, Netflix paid 30m/yr before WB said fk u, its 100m/yr now.
FYI- This is comment is built purely on conjecture, speculation, raw assumptions and outright guesses. But, the $4 billion debt is still held in cash and is 0% interest raised for this exact purpose . GameStop is still trading in the $25-26 range post stock split (so comparable to $100 a share vs. $4 a share when the whole GME saga started). It really depends on how the deal is structured but it sounds more like a merger than an acquisition. GameStop's debt would come mostly from the TD loan of $20 billion but would be would be mitigated from the new market cap and increase in EPS. The deal is not lucrative when you compare it even to the Paramount (who has a similar market cap) purchase of WB with both companies already holding 40 billion in debt before the merger even takes place. The deal would be 28 billion plus 28 billion in stock. That leaves GameStop with $1 billion net cash flow. Take into consideration Ryan Cohen owns 5% of eBay now - acting as a $3 billion equity rebate from the stock portion. We don't know the stock exchange rate but we do know it would be a 40/60 equity split with eBay shareholders (95% institutionally owned) owning 60% of the new issuance. This process usually triggers a stock recall where all shares from both companies are surrendered then reissued, which is a concern for over leveraged private equity which is assumed to hold 15-54% short positions by even mainstream analyst (look at overstock and Volkswagen). If we assume they reissue the current outstanding stock between both companies of about 990 million that means the new price per share would be roughly $60 a share based on new market cap with the assumption of zero synergies calculated. GameStop would only need it to be $42 to meet the $25 billion equity requirement for the 594,000,000 (60%) shares owed.
I am the same way and it’s because Webull has a solid chart platform that allows customization whereas RH legend is years but solid in options order execution. I like to execute on RH but chart on WB. WBs app is unfortunately too messy for me.x
Mostly bought. You have to look at multiple things to get an idea (can't be 100% sure): 1. Look at sales to determine they were traded on the Bid (sold to open or close) or Ask (bought) 2. Look at the Implied Volatility (IV). If IV increases it's likely a buy. I say likely because increase in IV can be attributed by multiple factors 3. Common sense - The company just reported Earnings creating a stock jump of 6% and closed at $29. Not even us degens on WB would sell-to-open 1,800 Calls with 1 week left till expiration. OI was 422 so most of the 1,800 was a new position.
This bubble has been all tech and WB doesnt buy tech
https://preview.redd.it/ef5e0fse8ezg1.png?width=110&format=png&auto=webp&s=7e5d56234788c93719db8801cce5536f5b2c6f50 doesnt help my 30k loss from netflix like a dumbass recently...... let's buy WB!! lets have the CEO step down @ earnings!!
> I have no idea what Paramount is buying that can somehow offset the fact that they are basically borrowing 10X their value. Larry Ellison is buying influence by putting up $78 billion of the financing with the implicit promise to make CNN and HBO more Trump friendly, the way they did with CBS News. They're not buying WB as a business, they're buying it as an influence operation. See also Bezos with the Washington Post.
GME gonna pump when this "deal" gets called off...similar to Netflix when WB deal fell through. Look for all the shady trading going on around that time.
"everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face" \-WB
I mean Paramount is a 10 billion dollar company buying WB for 110 billion. If someone is willing to give them debt to buy things it's very possible to happen.
if this happened it would be a Discovery purchasing WB thing again, where the.company doing the buying *cannot* afford it and it results in a new company with terrible financials and massive debt. this would not be good
so paramount got money from outside investors to finance the deal... Paramount still has to pay that money back, it isn't free money. they will use profits from WB and potential sale of assets to pay back the loans, i.e. a leveraged buyout. (fyi ~$49B of that deal is financed by a group of banks) So again how is this any different from what gamestop would be doing? as others have pointed out Cohen could just do exactly what he did with Gamestop, silently aquire enough shares to direct the board, oust members, instill himself, then get voted to be CEO. Which from all the chatter points to that gamestop *has* been quietly aquiring shares. do i honestly think gamestop will buy ebay though? probably not, these could all just be rumors to drive momentum and raise more capital through share offerings. but are the mechanics there for a deal to actually happen? yes.
Big players started selling NFLX last year because they didn’t want WB deal. Netflix failed to impress previous investors. Now they are trying to seduce them by announcing share buybacks twice. Since share price is artificially kept low (under 100) I predict sudden increase of at least 5-10% from here. Holding multiple call spreads.
> then how did paramount (a $12B market cap company) bid WB for $110B? > > Because Paramount didn't really buy it? They're just the control vehicle. Really it was acquired by a group of investors (Saudis, Ellison, etc.)
then how did paramount (a $12B market cap company) bid WB for $110B? Last i checked paramount has been losing money the past 2 quarters and no one is buying their subscription plan.
Whoever wants to. Smaller companies buying larger companies is uncommon, but not unprecedented prior to Paramount/WB.
For your information, the boomer generation started in 1946. WB was born in 1930...
Shut your whore mouth about WB LMAO 🤌
Not sure why people use the example of Warren Buffett sitting on $380 billions as a reason to say there is gonna be a crash. Like bro, it doesn't matter. You are not WB to find such opportunities when they arise.
Paramount are literally doing this right now with WB
My understanding was that the WB/paramount deal was backed by Elisons dads money or something. I'll have to look into it more.
Dude we just had a $12bn company buy a $68bn company (Paramount & WB)
Debt, debt, debt. I will be happy when all these junk companies — Ellison’s Oracle/Paramount/WB and Kushner/Saudi-backed Electronic Arts and this new plan inevitably crash.
Wait till someone shows her the loans they have taken out. Honestly the best part about OpenAI’s inevitable explosion is that it’s going to take Oracle down too. So maybe they’ll have to sell Paramount and WB.
Dunno but the big mtg (inc earnings) is Saturday First one without WB at the helm or the mic. Coincidental, maybe. Or big money waiting to see the report / commentary before they rush back in
Made sense a little drop because of the WB deal, but it had been almost a year since the stock was at $130 and after a year of beating earning expectation is at $85
Why did WB try to spinoff cable? Someone things the sum of parts worth more than whole.
I don’t know but trying to spinoff a division seems like it worked out for WB shareholders
The Ellisons are doing the same play with Skydance/WB. All they hammer on about is updating their studio operations with "state-of-the-art" jumbo jumbo tech jargon centered around AI, but no real clear vision of how their new content is going to exponentially gain more streamers, produce bigger box office blockbusters, or maximize viewership of all that attained legacy IP.
Time to whip out a WB quote, perhaps the best one. *We are in the greatest bull market in the history, retards. Go full on margin and buy growth assets. Cash is for pussies* - Warren Edward Buffett, 2026
I don't trade options either. My main investments are at Fidelity but I use Robinhood for penny trades. The iOS app is nice but the desktop version is awful and I keep thinking about getting into something else. I might check WB out.
Buying WB -> must pay moneys (drops) Not buying WB -> must need WB (drops)
They raised their prices in February 2025. This time they can expedite it thanks to 3B in cash for WB deal.
fucking yahoo finance still showing WB merger as the top headline.. thats why I hate retail news sites.
The only winner here are WB shareholders. They will probably take their money and buy NFLX now.
Lose WB + Create a worse version of Tic-Tok + Share buy back = profit??? the last grasp of a management that has no new ideas and needs to juice the stick price
Well, that’s a ruckin’ bummer. Ellison is such a tool. Guess we can look forward to a future of endless white nationalist state propaganda from what used to be the most liberal of the studios. RIP, WB.
Can't wait to boycott WB movies in the future..
Pretty sure it’s my turn to take over WB in 2029 but I’d really rather not.
They also tried to buy WB, just got caught in a bidding war and didn’t want to get bullied into overpaying. IMO I think they know what to do with it, and today, they’re giving back to their shareholders which is okay.
you mean Netflix's ATH before it announced wanted to buy WB?
And they gota massive payout from the failed WB merger.
Good thing they got paid billions for not buying WB
thinking about how content partnerships like the WB deal might become essential for streaming platforms. we follow stories like this closely. see our page
This highlights why NFLX needed the WB deal. Now bagholder are going to get a never ending stream of terrible ideas to spur growth
webull has been a little scamu since day one. Not saying that RH isn't, just WB is also that way
Not sure who GS is? However look at what WB does, that's the way...Cash is king in the macro and geopolitical event were in now. Always have powder to deploy...
I think DCA is more useful for times on big swings in price from nothing fundamental but merely market panic of some sort. But simply buying low after a stock drops without knowing the whether the news has changed the thesis on the name isn’t wise. WB is piling cash because his stocks have hit his valuation threshold. In other words the market is overpaying for the growth. So pull backs on stocks you own and nothing fundamental changes other than market valuation, then DCA can be a great compounder.
If I had money I woulda thrown $5k at Netflix when the WB deal fell thru, esp now they’re getting more and more live sports w commercials(income) and every1 I kno has Netflix. Seemed like a no brainer but I’m broke
Market pumped more than 50% since Warren Buffet sold all his shares? Is WB no longer the Oracle?
If you take away the WB payout, NFLX missed eps by like 15% 🤭
It all depends how the market feels about NFLX continuing to grow without him Considering he was pivotal in WB deal and making long term strategic decisions I don't think at open it would bounce or rather it will stay flat or face downturn until the market gains confidence.
Well, I can confidently tell you it is not going to fucking go up $10 in pre-market… NFLX has never been a fast moving stock without a massive catalyst (like the cancellation of the deal with WB). It tanked because the founder is leaving the company… do you really think tomorrow morning in pre-market he is going to say he was just kidding? And even if he did, do you really think the market is going to go all in on NFLX?
The time to buy was before the WB deal ended. When the stock was bouncing between 75 and 85
Earnings boosted by 2 billion WB fee...
Now imagine what would've happened if they had won the WB Discovery deal
I see a drop in earning? I mean you did remove the one time WB fee right? right?
If Netflix isn't a topping pre-Recession Harbinger, then Saylor's latest arbitrage scheme is. Reminds me of Variable Annuities promising clients floors of 3% minimum payouts while capping them at 8%, because the economy was so roaring in 2007 they thought there was no possible end to annual 12-15% returns minimum. The the Great Recession occurred and Annuities were paying out 3% on beyond tanked portfolios. So Saylor Scheming + Netflix growth sans WB windfall + Nike.AI looks like the makings of a stellar Recession hand at this point.
One time gain from WB fee, earnings are overstated
Crush EPS but down 8%. When are they suppose to get those billy’s from the WB fallout?
NFLX you were my single best position... I thought that now with the WB bs gone it would just go up I need to know how to cope if I had sold today I would've made more than my monthly wage
Their earnings includes the break up fee for the WB merger.
WBD, which would have been a mistake. WB is a cursed asset.
Netflix was 1,000 a share, they dud a 10 for 1 split. Those stock went up to 130 Then the WB deal was announced those shares dropped to 76 dollars. Netfkix walks away, and added a 1-2$ increase. Went up to 108, just dropped after they announced their 16%+ quarterly earnings.... I think a bunch or people sold too early I'm still betting really undervalued or did I do a dumb and not sell
Because the BS movies on the app suck ass. Shoulda merged with WB. Should let me login to my father in laws account at my house. Fuk that shit.
EPS was expected to be higher because of the 2.8B reward for dropping out of the WB deal. 0.7 was estimated before they got a free 2.8B
Netflix aarnings soft but WB penality saves it. Going to announce in 15min: *we're not a streaming business anymore, not a movie studio,* but an AI company--stock up 500%.
How can you have a position if you have $0 left? You can only be bearish in sentiment with no money. Give OP some time. OP will just be bearish until his BJs and Wendy's check comes in. Then the 🌈🐻 will blow it all on puts or something stupid again. ------------------------- p.s. You can tell OP is dumb as fuck because he quotes Buffet but even Buffet/Berkshire isn't selling. Berkshire rarely sell if ever sells (that just creates taxable events). Sometimes BRK will reposition out of good/bad stocks they like/dislike. But most of the time they just use their income from insurance to rebalance their securities, treasuries, and cash positions by adding to one while not adding to the others. [Berkshire is around 54% ST cash/notes but still 43% securities. They've mostly wound down their LT bond exposure over the past 2 decades to just 3%.](https://www.gurufocus.com/buffett_assets_allocations.php?1) If anything they have MORE equity than they did at any point since 1996 (data on site doesn't go back any further). So is Buffet/Berkshire bearish on stocks, the market, or even America? No.If anything Buffet, Munger, and Berkshire are massive USA bulls/glazers. They are more defensive due to high valuations, increasing chaos, weak bond risk:reward prospects, and probably Trump/Washington's BS. Lastly, Buffet/Berkshire doesn't need to "YOLO" their life savings to get rich and out of wagie town. Their job is to not lose their money so they don't have to ever see our bum asses. That's why they are holding more cash than normally, but OP out here acting like WB/BRK going full short on the market.
be greedy when others are greedy -WB
I'm expecting their fwd PE to drop significantly from the 33 it is now. Most US cities are giving new tax rebates, lowering the need to travel to Canada for production rebates, and there's talk of a US federal rebate. Let's see what's baked in but no one's talking about tax rebates after the WB merger
I have no idea on OXY going forward, but it goes into one of my "dumber" ideas.... I ditched it about a year and a half ago after holding it for 2-2.5 years. I'm well aware - or at least, at the time - thought I was aware of how perilous oil/energy stocks are. Why did I buy? Of course -- because Warren/Berkshire were loading in.... it was a pure "template" against a trusted investor. I'll never do that again... Don't get me wrong - the Oracle of Omaha is still a god to me, but chasing/patterning? Not for me. So, I gave up and exited. Not a disaster by any stretch - I didn't lose much and pretty much followed his pattern of "under 60". Looking it up? overall/average cost basis of 59. I sold around 56. And today? I see it's at 56. I always record - separate, in a simple XLS - "why I bought", "what I expect", and while I'm a pure buy-and-hold guy, "what I learned". My sheet says: "I'm going to see how well 'patterning' works. WB likes it under 60 and I'm willing to wait, so let's see" and "I expect it to sector out-perform because the oracle knows." and finally, "DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK!!! Stop trying to cheat off someone else who probably has a different aim than you."
But not 10. The cherry picking to justify BRK is ridiculous. BRK is an outperforming stonk based on about half a dozen exceptional years where it performed > 50%. It has not had one of these years since 1998 - and most were in the 1980s. SPY is, at this point, a better option and untethers you from needing another miracle worker to make gains. This was kind of the point of WB's infamous bet that no one manager can outperform an index fund. And sure enough, he sat at the table long enough and proved it with BRK as well. This fund is fat elvis, it's best years are behind it.
Why should Apple's full market cap count toward this dumb indicator when over half their revenue comes from overseas? WB is obviously a GOAT investor, but he's not infallable. This "indicator" is dumb.
Timing the market is better than time in the market- WB Everyone is a genius in a bull market- Mark Cuban Not disagreeing with you, just stick to your strategies. Buy high/sell low and just remember payment for order flow exists at an insane scale.
“ And then I told them… I was holding cash and they ain’t seen a real dip yet 😂 stupid regards” - WB
