Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) was one of the stocks on Jim Cramer’s radar as he highlighted AI winners to buy for 2026. A caller asked if the stock is a buy, given the competition in the streaming space. Cramer replied:
Well, okay, it’s not a buy, buy, buy, because we’re still, it’s a quizzical moment for Netflix because they went and they did that ill-fated attempt to be able to get Warner Brothers Discovery, and because of that, people feel that they must need that property. We have to wait one more quarter, and then I think people will realize, no, they just did it. It would’ve been a good idea. Let’s move on.
Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) provides streaming entertainment, including TV series, films, documentaries, and games. Cramer called the company a “juggernaut” during the April 10 episode, as he said:
Netflix reports Thursday, and this company’s a juggernaut. So many thought that they took their eye off the ball with the attempted purchase of Warner Brothers Discovery. I thought it’d be terrific either way, okay? If they got it, it’d be terrific. If they didn’t, well, they’d get paid a $2.8 billion breakup fee, walk away. I think they can just build up a great studio on their own. But more importantly, think of this, Netflix came out of nowhere to build this incredible, the greatest entertainment company on earth. I bet they can just keep doing what they’re doing. Let’s give them the benefit of the doubt.
