The streaming giant added 13.12 million subscriptions for 2023, beating its estimate of 9 million.

<p>NFLX is up 18.7% year-to-date and has seen a significant uptick after reporting its latest quarter. Given this surprise subscriber growth, which <a href="https://tokenist.com/investing/how-to-buy-stocks/" rel="dofollow" class="deco-link">stocks</a> could benefit from streaming intake?</p>
