Netflix rose 2% on Tuesday after Deutsche Bank shifted its stance on the streaming company to Buy from Hold, pointing to robust overseas engagement that offsets domestic viewing concerns. Analyst Bryan Kraft lowered the price target to $95 from $100 while citing international scale and valuation shifts as drivers for the upgrade.

### Tape / Session Read Deutsche Bank noted that international viewing for Netflix has increased year over year across each of the last four six-month periods. Kraft highlighted that more than 60% of Netflix's production footprint is now based outside the United States, supporting potential expansion beyond traditional streaming into a broader platform business.

### Valuation and Forecasts Valuation multiples have compressed significantly compared with June 2025 levels, with the stock trading at about 18 times Kraft's 2027 earnings forecast. Deutsche Bank also reduced its operating-income and free-cash-flow forecasts following the company's second-quarter results, while expecting artificial intelligence to create new avenues in content creation, personalization, and advertising.

### Money Play Market participants tracking streaming equities should evaluate overseas engagement metrics and global production footprint ratios when assessing platform valuation.

global streaming scale

Deutsche Bank told investors that Netflix is a better buy than before because people outside the U.S. are watching a lot more. Even though a price target was slightly cut, the global reach makes money experts pay attention.

What changed

Deutsche Bank upgraded Netflix to Buy from Hold based on strong international engagement, despite trimming some short-term profit forecasts.

Who wins / who loses

Global streaming platforms with heavy overseas production benefit from international scaling, while traditional domestic-only media networks face continued pressure.
