Netflix, Apple TV+, and Peacock In 1 - Comcast Introduces Discounted 'StreamSaver' Bundle
Portfolio Pulse from Anusuya Lahiri
Comcast Corp announced the introduction of StreamSaver, a discounted streaming bundle including Apple TV+, Netflix, and Peacock, aimed at reducing subscriber churn. Available to video and broadband customers, this move comes as Comcast seeks to counteract the loss of pay-TV subscribers. The company reported a 1.2% revenue growth Y/Y in Q1, with Peacock subscribers increasing by 55%. Despite this, Comcast's stock has seen a slight decline over the past year. Investors can also gain exposure through Invesco BuyBack Achievers ETF and Vanguard Communication Services ETF.
