Netflix, Media Stocks Drop After Trump Orders Tariffs on Foreign-Made Films

On July 1, 2024, shares of Netflix and other media companies dropped after former President Donald Trump announced plans to impose tariffs on foreign-made films and television shows if re-elected.

The announcement led to a decline in stock prices, with Netflix shares falling 2.3%, Paramount Global dropping 3.1%, and Warner Bros. Discovery decreasing by 2.7%.
