Thanks precisely to the rumors that point to Disney is more interested than ever in buying NetflixDuring the last weeks the value of the shares of the latter has not stopped rising. One of the points that most make you think about this news is the great relationship that both companies have and that allows the well-known video streaming platform to distribute Disney content.
Before continuing, let you know that, for now, we are only talking about rumors, although, contrary to what has been said all this time, this time it is not only said that Disney might be interested in buying Netflix, but they would also be planning the best possible way to also get hold of Twitter. Personally, I don't usually give much importance to rumors unless, as is the case, an analyst like William powerby Robert W. Baird & Co, be the author of the same.
Despite the downsides, Disney could be paving the way to buy Netflix.

Now, Why is everyone watching Disney? Personally, I think it is precisely because of its history, since today they have 30% of the Hulu company, also dedicated to video streaming, and recently they decided to spend a billion dollars to buy a third of the Advanced division. Major League Baseball Media Tech. On the other hand, as also mentioned, these latest movements could put the purchase of Netflix at serious risk since the regulatory authorities could see it as a practice of monopoly.
