Netflix and their change of apparent investment policy

NFLX has been notorious for having a rather conservative investment policy, being reserved in all means of their financial interactions. Whether we're referring to their accumulation of debt, acquisitions or overall spending. In recent times, their management has been making very questionable financial decisions. Their most questionable financial decision as of around 2 days ago, was their decision to place 2% of their cash holdings in black-led banks to attempt to "narrow racial wealth gap" according to Yahoo Finance. As many are aware, this is the company making a desperate attempt at appealing to the public eye considering recent events. Obviously the investment community did not appreciate this careless "flinging" of money at various corporations with limited investigation into their current financial states. For those unaware, this was the primary cause of the strong sell orientation of the stock.

In the big scheme of things, despite that considerable amount of money being used for "political correctness acts", the stock should recover in the coming months, although this has unsettled many long-term holders of the stock (reducing their faith in management in the company, especially as it is moved around). As it goes in the market, only time shall tell. Personally, I can think of more suitable alternatives to place my money into. If you're a trader who is seeking daily action, then go ahead, Netflix might be one of the stocks you want to 'play' with.

As always, any opinions or facts that I'm unaware of, are welcome anytime. Comment away!

TL;DR: Netflix's management have been making questionable investment decisions with cash holdings which has destabilized their stock.
