- Netflix announced a $25 billion share buyback, a move reported by Yahoo Finance, WSJ and Bloomberg.
- Netflix shares slid 9‑10% before the buyback, prompting the capital return.
- Tesla expanded its robotaxi service to Dallas and Houston in April, highlighting competitive pressures in the tech sector.
Why it matters: Shareholders receive $25B of repurchased stock, raising earnings per share; short sellers see losses as price rebounds; the move also strengthens Netflix’s balance sheet amid a market rattled by Iran’s Hormuz closure and Tesla’s robotaxi rollout.
