Can Netflix Hit 500 Million Subscribers?

SHARESIGHT - Track Your Portfolio (Get 4 Months Access FREE) ▶︎ https://www.sharesight.com/hamishhodder/ In this video I breakdown whether Netflix can reach 500 million global subscribers, the figure which is the company’s long-term goal. 500 million subscribers means the company producing close to $100 Billion in revenue, and likely over $30-40 Billion in operating profit, significantly higher than the current $5-6 Billion.

What are Real Options? - Real Options Valuation Method For Capital Budgeting Decisions

Real options valuation, also often termed real options analysis, applies option valuation techniques to capital budgeting decisions. These classes are all based on the book Trading and Pricing Financial Derivatives, available on Amazon at this link. https://amzn.to/2WIoAL0 Check out our website http://www.onfinance.org/ Patreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinance Follow Patrick on twitter here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoyle A real option itself, is the right but not the obligation to undertake certain business initiatives, such as deferring, abandoning, expanding, staging, or contracting a capital investment project. For example, the opportunity to invest in the expansion of a firm's factory, or alternatively to sell the factory, is a real call or put option, respectively. Real options are generally distinguished from conventional financial options in that they are not typically traded as securities, and do not usually involve decisions on an underlying asset that is traded as a financial security. A further distinction is that option holders here, i.e. management, can directly influence the value of the option's underlying project; whereas this is not a consideration as regards the underlying security of a financial option. Moreover, management cannot measure uncertainty in terms of volatility, and must instead rely on their perceptions of uncertainty. Unlike financial options, management also have to create or discover real options, and such creation and discovery process comprises an entrepreneurial or business task. Real options are most valuable when uncertainty is high; management has significant flexibility to change the course of the project in a favorable direction and is willing to exercise the options. Real options analysis, as a discipline, extends from its application in corporate finance, to decision making under uncertainty in general, adapting the techniques developed for financial options to "real-life" decisions. For example, R&D managers can use Real Options Valuation to help them allocate their R&D budget among diverse projects; a non business example might be the decision to join the work force, or rather, to forgo several years of income to attend graduate school. It, thus, forces decision makers to be explicit about the assumptions underlying their projections, and for this reason ROV is increasingly employed as a tool in business strategy formulation. This extension of real options to real-world projects often requires customized decision support systems, because otherwise the complex compound real options will become too intractable to handle.
