- Netflix’s (NFLX) $72 billion deal to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD)sets up a sweeping antitrust regulatory fight, as the world’s largest streaming platform seeks approval to absorb HBO Max and one of Hollywood’s marquee studios. President Donald Trump said Sunday he would be personally involved in the decision-making process and that there “could be a problem.”

That represents an equity value of around $9.3 billion, according to Bloomberg calculations. The companies expect the deal to close by the middle of 2026.
