Netflix Hits Record Streak as Stock Continues to Rise

Los Angeles, CA – Netflix‘s stock is experiencing a remarkable winning streak, trading without a decline for 11 consecutive days, the company’s longest positive run ever. On Friday, the stock saw a gain of 2%.

This new record surpasses its previous streak of nine days recorded in late 2018 and early 2019. During that time, the stock increased for four days, remained unchanged for one day, and then rose again for another four days. Currently, Netflix’s stock is also trading at all-time highs since its IPO in May 2002.

The stock’s rally follows Netflix’s announcement on April 17, revealing a 13% revenue growth in the first quarter of 2025, driven by higher-than-expected subscription and advertising revenue. The company has seen its shares increase by more than 30% since mid-January, indicating strong market performance during President Trump‘s second term.

In contrast, traditional media stocks have struggled as the market reacts to economic uncertainties linked to Trump’s trade policies. Companies like Disney and Comcast have lost nearly 10% and 13%, respectively, since the start of his presidency.

Despite these challenges, Netflix projects full-year revenue between $43.5 billion and $44.5 billion. “There’s been no material change to our overall business outlook,” the company stated last month.

During an earnings call, co-CEO Greg Peters expressed confidence, noting, “Based on what we are seeing by actually operating the business right now, there’s nothing really significant to note.” He added that entertainment generally shows resilience during economic downturns, which Netflix has historically demonstrated.

Analysts from a renowned financial firm remarked on Netflix’s position, stating, “NFLX has established itself as the clear leader in global streaming & is on the pathway to becoming global TV… Advertising Upfronts in May should serve as a positive catalyst to shares.”

While Netflix has raised its subscription prices—$17.99 for the standard plan, $7.99 for the ad-supported plan, and $24.99 for the premium plan—it appears to have retained its appeal. However, it remains uncertain whether the subscriber base is expanding or contracting, as the company recently ceased sharing membership numbers, opting to highlight revenue growth instead.
