    Ep. 85 - Why Netflix Is Dominating International Growth

    Netflix (NFLX) disappointed investors by missing its own Q218 estimates for US and international subscribers.

I tend to agree with the bulls that there is still a lot of international growth ahead for Netflix. To explain why, let’s dive into the details around Netflix’s expansion into Canada 8 years ago and how it’s doing there. Their success in Canada offers a window into why they’re likely to continue to be successful in the other 190 countries they’ve expanded to in the past few years.
