For this week discussion you will be using the case Netflix’s Debt Problem.
In your initial response you should answer all 6 questions:
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
1. What are some of the risks in Netflix accruing debt and relying on junk bonds?
2. Do you think this is a strategy that’s necessary for Netflix’s long-term success, or is Netflix a doomed operation digging itself further into debt?
3. Consider the growing number of streaming platforms and Netflix’s position in the competitive market. What, if anything, should Netflix be doing differently?
4. What do you imagine some next steps for the company are if it (a) remains in debt, or (b) is able to resolve that debt?

What is the rating of this bond? Explain the meaning of this rating. If you are an investor, would you buy this bond? What data supports your decision to buy this bond or not?
6. Reflection – the students also should include a paragraph in the initial response in their own words reflecting on specifically what they learned from the discussion topic and how they think they could apply what they learned in the workplace or in everyday life.
