What affects Netflix’s share price?
When buying or selling shares in a company, it’s important to keep an eye on the current events related to that company. We will walk you through some of the key things to keep an eye on when trading Netflix shares.
- Financial reporting. It’s a good idea to know when a company will be releasing its financial reports. This will let you know how the company is performing and will have a big impact on its share price.
- Company news. It’s important to keep up-to-date with the company news. For example, is the company planning to release anything new in the next few months? Is it looking to move into a new country or market? Is it hiring or firing staff? All of these events will have an impact on its share price.
- Wider news. You should also be aware of other external events and news that may have an impact on the company's share price, for instance, news about the sector.
- Does the company pay dividends? If a company pays dividends, it means that it pays some of its profits back to the shareholders.
- Shareholder meetings. These are often held annually and invite large shareholders to attend meetings and vote on matters relating to the company. It’s a good idea to know when these are, as they may influence the direction of the company.
Buying overseas stocks
First things first, you should check if the share-trading platform you’re considering allows you to hold foreign shares. Whether you’re looking at a dealing account, a stocks and shares ISA or a SIPP (self-invested personal pension), different trading providers have different rules.
Under HMRC rules, you’re allowed to hold shares listed on a “recognised stock exchange”. Your provider, however, may not allow it. So, check what stocks you’re able to hold with the share-dealing platform you’re considering.
Checklist before you invest in any company
- What does the company do? This might sound silly, but can you explain what the company does in a few sentences? If you can’t, then maybe you should go back to the drawing board.
- Is it making profits? If you’re not sure whether a company is profitable, this could be a warning sign. Try reading the company’s quarterly or annual earnings reports and take a look at the figures for yourself.
- Who are the main competitors? Every company operates alongside competitors. Before you invest, you need to know if the company is the market leader, a newcomer, a fast-growing disrupter or something else. If the company you’re considering investing in is global-facing, you need to keep an eye on foreign competition too.
- Who is running the company? Even a cursory look at this can tell you something about the company’s stability and management style.
- Is the company’s position sustainable? If you’re investing for the long term, you need to consider this question. If you’re looking for a short-term gain, perhaps this is less important.
- Is there room for future growth? Linked to the question above, what is the outlook for the medium-to-long term? Has your company reached its maximum size?
