Strong Financial Performance
The remarkable stock performance follows Netflix’s impressive Q1 2025 earnings report released on April 17. The company exceeded expectations with a 13% revenue increase, driven by stronger-than-anticipated subscription growth and advertising revenue. This success has positioned Netflix as one of the top-performing stocks during the first 100 days of President Trump’s second term.
