News Corporation has had a dynamic period, with an aggressive approach toward
stock buybacks. The company initiated a
$1 billion stock repurchase scheme to boost the prospects of their class A and class B shares, although the stock performance compared to competitors was inconsistent. The firm's earnings and revenues faced a dip due to an
advertising slowdown, however, an increase in
digital subscriptions acted as a buffer, causing a marginal rise in the stock. News of
earmarking server racks to the xAI Supercomputer and a significant investment by
Starboard brought momentous traction. Furthermore, a licensing pact with
OpenAI provided upward momentum. Despite facing losses, News Corp outperformed competitors on certain trading days. A contentious call by
Starboard CEO for spinning off real estate assets triggered discussions about the financial vitality of the media firm. Several reports highlighted potential changes, including profit beat due to cost cuts and anticipated gains from AI, which contributed to the stock's mixed performance.
