Netflix (NFLX) shares dropped 10% due to disappointing third-quarter earnings related to a Brazilian tax issue. Revenue met expectations, but earnings per share fell short at $5.87. Despite this, buying the post-earnings dip could be strategic as AI presents a significant opportunity for the company, with potential upside of 35%.
Options data suggests further upside in NFLX shares, with contracts indicating potential growth to $1,231 by Jan. 16.
