Netflix chairs are down about 25% since they began pursuing Warner Brothers in October.
Is Netflix in a race against time here?
I think so Scarlett I mean you know there has obviously been a lot of worries about that falling stock price and investors kind of questioning okay so really what is the value right
if that's an 8515 split for a Warner studio and streaming assets I mean Warner shareholders obviously worried worried about the falling value of you know the Netflix stock and so obviously Netflix you're really trying to assuage those investors by making it an all-cash offer but yes they are you know very much running against clock.

We definitely think that Paramount will fight back because for them,
the cost of not doing the deal is definitely greater than it is for Netflix.
