Already up 60% this year, a pair of analysts see Netflix rising even higher

Main Points are:

  • Both UBS and Macquarie on Monday hiked their price targets on Netflix, citing strong content and increased adoption of 4K ultra-high-definition television, respectively.

  • The second season of Netflix's "Stranger Things" garnered higher search interest than every season of HBO's "Game of Thrones" in the U.S., according to UBS research

  • The prevalence of 4K televisions in North America could reach 50 percent by 2020, up from 12 percent in 2016, Macquarie says.

  • Shares of Netflix rose Monday after the analysts' calls, up nearly 3 percent. Netflix is up 61 percent in 2018 versus the S&P 500's 1.3 percent climb.
