Wall Street recasts Netflix as a legacy stock after weak guidance

The Ankler’s Claire Atkinson reports that Netflix stock is down 40% from its all-time high after weak Q3 guidance and thin recent hits. Investors now see it as a maturing “value stock,” not a high-growth tech company, per LightShed’s Rich Greenfield.
