I think the issue is simply that we again had publishers trying to start their own platforms and withdraw a lot of content. Some with success like Disney.

But I otherwise sympathise with what Musk writes, content might be more enjoyable if we could tune that down a bit.

Price increases in the middle of an unprecedented glut of content on so many other competing services, and a lot of strong competition. It’s not surprising. They also need more editing, there is a lot of good content on Netflix but there is so much crap it’s hard to find.

And to add: Musk is suffering from the anti-woke virus if that’s (his tweet) what he thinks is the reason for Netflix’s slump.

A few things:

- Growth stocks will drop and keep dropping as interest rates increase, NFLX does not make money and is classic growth, the companies valuation is $30-50B at best and I expect it to fall to that level.

- Like others have said NFLX's content currently is terrible, alot of their hit shows have either ended or are on hiatus due to the pandemic.

- Their monthly prices are high and given the above point households are throwing out the trash so to speak and nothing NFLX has supports a $20 monthly subscription.

- Supporting kid porn like "cuties" made alot of people mad, unsure why they chose this position but its just shooting themselves in the foot.
