Netflix stock has opened lower by 90% on Monday. But shareholders have absolutely nothing to worry about. The investment value of Netflix shareholders remains the same.

Netflix stock closed around $1,140 on Friday but opened around $111 on Monday. The big change in the Netflix share price is a result of a stock split. Trading began on a split-adjusted basis at market open on Monday, November 17, 2025.

Netflix shares traded at $1,100 before the split; an investor holding one share before the split would hold 10 shares priced at $110 each after the split. So, do not get confused after the Netflix stock price has fallen to $111 on open on November 17, a fall of 90%.

Netflix had declared a ten-for-one stock split, which will allow owners of record on November 10, 2025, to get nine more shares for each share they already own, making the company’s stock more affordable.

The record date for the Netflix stock split was November 10. Each shareholder as of the close of trading on Monday, November 10, 2025, became eligible for the ten-for-one stock split of the Company’s common stock.

The additional 9 shares for every share held on the record date of Netflix were credited to the Demat account after the close of trading on Friday, November 14, 2025.

Stock prices on investing websites adjust to reflect splits, preventing confusion that could suggest a large sell-off when there isn’t one. Ultimately, a stock split doesn’t alter the company’s value, but it can make shares more accessible to investors unable to purchase fractional shares.

Netflix has announced a stock split to make each share of the company more affordable for investors. A stock split results in an increase in the number of shares of the company without any change in the shareholder equity and diluting current shareholders’ ownership interests.

It is Netflix’s ten-for-one stock split, as every shareholder holding 1 Netflix stock will effectively hold 10 stocks, before trading begins post-split on November 17.

Netflix, with a market cap of around $467 billion, is up over 25% YTD and 31% in the last 12 months. On the trading date after the stock split, on Monday, November 17, the stock will begin trading at one-tenth of its previous price.

A star outshines an entire galaxy in NASA's latest image captured by Hubble Telescope. See pic

  Snapshot of the star that stood out in the galaxy. © Provided by Deepak kumar blogs N ASA never fails to amaze us with wonderful pictures of the stars and the galaxy. This time, the space agency shared an image of a single star that stole the show. The image was captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and shows a star and a galaxy that are in the constellation Lacerta (The Lizard). Elaborating on this celestial marvel,  NASA  explained, "The star is a million times closer to us than the galaxy, which lies more than 45 million light-years away. This relative closeness is the only way a star can outshine an entire galaxy containing billions of stars."  They further added, "This star is what astronomers call a 'foreground star,' and it's a bit of a nuisance. Its light can contaminate fainter light from more distant objects that astronomers want to study." Talking more about the foreground stars, NASA shared, "In a technique called microlensing,...

NASA's Hubble Telescope captures mesmerising colourful eruption of a 'stellar volcano'

  NASA's Hubble Telescope captures mesmerising colourful eruption of a 'stellar volcano' T he cosmos has once again dazzled us! The Hubble Space Telescope recently revealed a striking image of two stars locked in a fascinating dance. This captivating nebula showcases the intricate relationship of these celestial neighbours, a tale centuries in the making. The hourglass-shaped nebula forms from the interaction between two distinct stars. One is a compact white dwarf, while the other is a massive red giant. This red giant is over 400 times larger than our sun and has a brightness that fluctuates over a 387-day cycle. Located about 710 light-years from Earth, this star system is called R Aquarii. It is classified as a symbiotic variable star, a term that mirrors biological symbiosis. This means two different stars exist close together and interact continuously.
