I read that the us president recently declared his holdings and it showed that he bought netflix after a neeting trying to get their deal through for the plan ed acquisition of warner bro.
As we know of the man in the white house, it is par for course considering he has a serious lack of ethics, all while he constantly tries to influence and manipulate the situation. But it is hinting that he will be trying to make a profit out of this, and therefore the netflix deal will go through.
If I was willing to gamble, I would make the call that netflix would successfully acquire warner bros, even though skydance seems adamant that they can stir the pot. The likelihood is that trump steps in and squeezes skydance, or throw them a scrap, in another realm (after all they caved to his demand before, by not extending the successful late night talk show host, Stephen Colbert).
So the outcome to expect is for netflix to consolidate their position and maybe go on to acquire other flailing competitors too. More value for shareholders (and the president) in the long term, and less for users who will be watching ads while paying for the service, yet be unable to find strong alternatives.
