Discovery Inc. (WBD).Speaking to CNBC, Ellison stated that the transaction could strengthen competition in the media and streaming industry. He emphasized that the combination of major film libraries and stronger financial resources would position the company to compete more effectively in the global entertainment market.“We believe this deal is pro-competitive, pro-consumer, and it is good for the overall creative economy,” he said.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Massive Film Library Strengthens Content Strategy</h2>Ellison said the combined entity would control a film catalog of roughly 15,000 titles. The collection would include blockbuster franchises such as the Harry Potter series, Mission Impossible, and titles connected to the DC universe.He noted that housing all those titles under a single corporate structure provides the scale needed to compete with large streaming platforms. The larger catalog offers more content for digital platforms and helps boost the company’s push to expand its global streaming footprint.“That puts us in an incredible position to really be able to win in the content space. It immediately gets us to scale in streaming,” Ellison added.&nbsp;Ellison also highlighted the financial strength of the combined business. He said the company anticipates generating more than $10 billion in annual cash flow, supported by approximately $69 billion in revenue and roughly $18 billion in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA).&nbsp;He said that these resources would allow management to invest heavily in technology and to manage existing debt obligations.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Possible Operational Changes</h2>While Ellison acknowledged that the merged company will likely streamline certain corporate functions, he stressed that job cuts are not the primary goal behind the deal.&nbsp;“We will absolutely have to rationalize the overall corporate overhead of the company. But that’s not the primary driver of the synergies in the deal,” Ellison said.&nbsp;The battle to acquire Warner Bros. assets was highly competitive. Netflix initially made a bid of $82.7 billion for the assets, excluding cable networks. Paramount later stepped in with a hostile bid, increasing the proposal to $31 per share.PSKY stock has gained over 4% in the last 12 months.&nbsp;Also See:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/why-did-crmd-stock-tumble-today/cZdQvWFRI3i">Why Did CRMD Stock Tumble Over 11% Today?</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Despite increased AI investment in 2026, the fund said Meta’s strong balance sheet, high-margin core business, and ongoing cost discipline support long-term earnings growth while limiting overbuilding risk.“We believe Meta’s current share price underappreciates the company’s long-term upside potential from AI and represents a deeply discounted valuation for one of the world’s greatest businesses,” the presentation said.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Meta’s AI Push</h2>In its latest quarterly report, Meta announced capital expenditures in the range of $115 billion to $135 billion for 2026, up from $72.22 billion in the previous year.Meanwhile, other large tech companies, including Meta, have collectively announced plans to invest over $630 billion in AI buildouts in 2026, more than double the spend from 2025.Meta also broke ground at a data center campus in Lebanon, Indiana on Wednesday, and <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://about.fb.com/news/2026/02/metas-new-data-center-lebanon-indiana-marks-milestone-ai-investment/">said</a> the facility represents an investment of over $10 billion in AI infrastructure, marking one of its largest infrastructure investments till date.The facility is designed to deliver one gigawatt of power that is intended to support its AI workloads and core businesses.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Ackman’s Picks</h2>Apart from Meta, Pershing Square also took positions in Amazon and Hertz, stakes that were previously disclosed.The presentation also noted that the fund exited investments in Chipotle, CPKC, Nike and Hilton.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Did Stocktwits Users React?</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around META shares remained in the ‘bearish’ territory over the past 24 hours amid ‘low’ message volumes.One bullish user said they concurred with Ackman’s view, adding that they expect the company’s shares to surge to $1000 this year.
