What happened
Netflix announced a leadership shake-up on Friday, and its stock fell in early trading. The move is intended to restore growth in viewership as engagement slows. The stock is down about 20% this year and nearing a 52-week low, even though revenue keeps rising at double-digit rates.
Why it matters
The shake-up is meant to bring back viewership growth, and an upcoming earnings report could settle doubts about the company's direction.
