In my opinion, Netflix’s valuation of $40 billion justified and the company can move higher as it expands its footprints internationally.

A non-empirical argument can also be made in support of offensive shareholder activism that focuses on the ability of the board of directors to act as impartial arbitrator deciding between the advices provided by executive management and the activist hedge fund.
