Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. (WBD) is perceived to be undervalued and has performed better than the market expectations, gaining traction due to proposed Wimbledon plans. The company has planned to separate its streaming and studio business from its TV networks. This separation, along with an increase in the stock position by Asset Management One Co. Ltd., has led to a surge in WBD's stock. The split is aimed for both halves of the company to succeed and unlock value. Moreover, HBO and CNN are set to become separate companies. Meanwhile, the company’s bonds saw a major selloff due to ratings being cut to junk, which could be a potential concern for stock investors. Despite a 3% sink in the stock, Hi Line Capital Management LLC purchased more of WBD shares. The split plans, however, raised concerns over potential operational friction, while simultaneously being seen as a move to optimize a vast empire. On a negative note, if a recession hits, the company's stock could potentially suffer. The streaming and network split could reflect the struggles in cable TV but the split could make WBD highly attractive to investors.
