What’s Behind Netflix’s Second Day Stock Sell Off?

The sell off of shares in Netflix continued on Friday over subscriber growth concerns.

Stock in the streaming giant fell 8.5 percent a day earlier after MoffettNathanson research analyst Robert Fishman warned in an investor note that a gain from turning password-borrowers into paying customers had possibly run its course.

On Friday, shares in Netflix closed down another $15.25, or 1.7 percent, at $891.11, which marked a recovery from an intra-day trading low of $858.63, but was well down from a record high of $1,064.50 reached on Feb. 14 for stock in the streaming giant.
