News Corporation (NWSA) is in the spotlight after announcing a
$1 billion stock buy-back program, a strategic move demonstrating corporate confidence in the company’s future. This initiative is a significant development, which underlines the company's robust performance and strong cash flow optimism. Q3 earnings of NWSA are keenly watched and indicative of positive trends, showing an EPS growth of 31%. Notably, stocks are showing improved relative strength. Moreover,
Cubist Systematic Strategies and Raymond James Financial acquired vast shares of the company, while Contour Asset Management holds a $148.24 million stock position in NWSA. However, NWSA's stock underperformance in comparison to the Communication Services sector is a concern. There is corporate governance discussion too, as proposals for the company to eliminate dual-class shares have been floated by Starboard and Irenic Capital, but the Murdoch family retains majority control after shareholder votes. Other highlights include the company surpassing Q3 revenue predictions thanks to strong earnings, and a very encouraging Wall Street prediction of a potential NWSA surge of 33.55%.
