Netflix Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) Co-CEO&nbsp;Ted Sarandos on Thursday outlined why the streaming giant continues to hold an edge over YouTube, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google.
What Happened: During Netflix&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41391637/netflix-q3-earnings-revenue-beats-eps-tops-q4-guidance-projects-subscriber-boost-from-squid-game-nf">third-quarter earnings</a> call, a question about&nbsp;YouTube&#8217;s growing share of TV&nbsp;consumption was raised.
In response, Sarandos highlighted Netflix&#8217;s commitment to investing in premium content to increase viewer engagement, stating, &#8220;Netflix is the best place&nbsp;for premium stories because we&#8217;re&nbsp;the home to the best&nbsp;storytellers.&#8221;

Regarding YouTube, he said, &#8220;When I look at YouTube specifically, I&#8217;d say look, we compete directly with YouTube for people&#8217;s time, for the time they spend on that TV screen. But we have very different strengths.&#8221;
Another, Netflix Co-CEO Greg Peters added that Netflix plays a crucial role for consumers seeking high-quality movies and TV shows, and for creators looking for partners willing to share the inherent risks of bringing stories to life.
&#8220;A Hundred Years of Solitude, Senna, both coming from Latin America, which are huge, ambitious projects. It&#8217;s hard to imagine how those kind of big creative bets would be possible with YouTube&#8217;s model,&#8221; Peters stated.

Why It Matters: Netflix&#8217;s third-quarter financial results showed a 15% year-over-year increase in revenue, beating Street consensus estimates.
Moreover, Netflix&#8217;s recent foray into live sports programming indicates a strategic shift from its traditional on-demand model. This move aims to capture high-impact moments and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/10/41395213/netflixs-200b-hour-problem-why-live-sports-are-just-a-drop-in-the-streaming-ocean">excitement of global live events</a>, further enhancing viewer engagement.
During the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/07/39849026/netflix-q2-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-advertising-revenue-more-meaningful-squid-game" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">second-quarter earnings</a> call, Netflix executives were asked questions about YouTube.
At the time, Sarandos&nbsp;said, &#8220;So our two services — us and YouTube represent about 50% of all streaming to the TV in the U.S. and we use the U.S. only because that's where we have the data.&#8221;
&#8220;So really what we're focused on here is focusing ourselves on that other 80% of total TV time that isn't going to either us or YouTube,&#8221; he said in July.
Sarandos <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/07/39853498/netflix-aims-to-capture-broader-tv-market-sees-youtube-as-both-competitor-and-partner-we-ki">reiterated Netflix&#8217;s commitment to focus</a> on the remaining 80% of the market during the third-quarter call too.

What Happened: At an event on Thursday, OpenAI CEO Altman, along with the other executives tied to the project, unveiled several new developments.
The team outlined their plans for &#8220;Orb 2.0,&#8221; an enhanced version of the biometric imaging device that the project uses to collect people's iris in exchange for WLD tokens.
The team also announced the introduction of World Chain, a blockchain that can be customized to meet its specific demands. With 15 million human data points, it was dubbed the &#8220;largest blockchain of humans on day one.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Sam Altman launched the Worldcoin project last year amid significant media attention. 
However, the positive publicity soon transformed into negative publicity as concerns over personal data privacy surfaced. The project has been banned in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/05/38981228/sam-altman-founded-worldcoin-shown-the-door-in-hong-kong-over-privacy-concerns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hong Kong</a>, Kenya, and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/06/39176283/sam-altman-founded-worldcoins-suspension-extended-in-spain-crypto-plunges-55-since-march-p" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Spain</a>. 
The persistent scrutiny affected the performance of the WLD token, causing it to plunge 40% year-to-date.

In a recent interview, former President Donald Trump advocated for a significant increase in import tariffs, a move that was slammed by Nobel winning economist Paul Krugman in a recent opinion piece.
What Happened: Trump, known for imposing substantial tariffs during his presidency, is now suggesting tariffs as high as 20 percent, including a 60 percent tariff on imports from China. Economists have voiced their opposition to these proposals, warning that such high tariffs could harm the economy, according to Krugman in his New York Times column. He said he shared a similar view.
The economist also shared the column through X and asked, &#8220;Are Trump's tariff ideas really that bad? No, they're worse.&#8221;

The former president believes that these high tariffs would reduce U.S. trade deficits and stimulate domestic manufacturing. However, this approach has been widely criticized by economists, who argue that the tariffs would not achieve these goals.
Opining on why Trump favored Tariffs, Krugman wrote, &#8220;It has never been entirely clear why Trump has a thing for tariffs. My guess is that he sees everything in terms of winners, losers and punishment.&#8221;
Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs, if implemented, could potentially turn the clock back 90 years, raising overall tariffs to levels not seen since the era of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act.
Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs were framed as a plan, they were likely to raise living costs by about 3 to 4 percent, disproportionately affecting middle- and lower-income families. Economists generally agreed that these tariffs would not boost American manufacturing or reduce the trade deficit, and could ultimately harm the economy by increasing global poverty and creating market fragmentation, said Krugman.
&#8220;What the tariffs would do is shrink our economy. They would cause us to sell less of the goods we currently export — that is, stuff we're relatively good at producing — and more stuff we aren't that good at producing. The effect would be to make the economy less efficient and poorer,&#8217; wrote the Economist.
He warned, &#8220;The Trump tariffs could cause a spike in global poverty — and, it's easy to imagine, global conflict.&#8221;

Similarly, billionaire Mark Cuban <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41348822/mark-cuban-says-he-knows-what-trump-wants-to-achieve-with-tariffs-but-the-ex-president-has-no-idea-w">expressed his skepticism</a> about Trump&#8217;s approach to revitalizing U.S. manufacturing through tariffs. In a post, Cuban argued that Trump does not understand what it takes to achieve his goals.
Trump defended his tariff strategy during an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41344136/trump-goes-on-the-defense-about-massive-effect-of-tariffs-economic-growth-putin-relationship-djt">interview</a> at the Economic Club of Chicago, stating that tariffs have a &#8220;massive effect.&#8221;

Paul Krugman Warns Trump's Tariff Plan Could Rewind Economic Progress 90 Years and Ignite Global Conflict: 'He Sees Everything In Terms Of Winners, Losers And Punishment'

Renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has forecasted a potential pricing standoff in the semiconductor industry. 
What Happened:&nbsp;On Thursday, Kuo an analyst at&nbsp;TF Securities took&nbsp;to X, formerly Twitter, and said that market rumors indicate ASML Holding&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) could hike equipment prices for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Co.&nbsp;Ltd.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>).
However, Kuo anticipates that TSMC, the world&#8217;s largest contract chipmaker, and ASML&#8217;s biggest customer, will likely push back against these price increases.

ASML is the sole manufacturer&nbsp;of high-end extreme ultraviolet&nbsp;lithography systems, which are essential for creating advanced chips.
TSMC relies on ASML&#8217;s EUV&nbsp;technology to manufacture cutting-edge semiconductors&nbsp;for various clients, including tech behemoths like Apple and Nvidia.
Kuo&#8217;s comments suggest that TSMC&#8217;s likely&nbsp;push for price reductions from&nbsp;ASML could lead to a&nbsp;pricing standoff between the two&nbsp;companies.
Why It Matters: This development comes after TSMC <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41373163/nvidia-supplier-tsmc-reports-q3-revenue-earnings-beat-amid-rising-demand-for-ai-chips">reported strong third-quarter results</a>, beating estimates due to robust demand for advanced processor node technologies used in AI applications.

However, the Dutch firm revised the upper limit of its full-year sales forecast,
Earlier in the year, TSMC had expressed concerns about the high costs of ASML's new advanced chip machines.
At a technology symposium, TSMC senior vice president Kevin Zhang commented <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38842448/taiwan-semi-flags-high-costs-of-asmls-latest-chip-machines">on the high price of the</a> high-NA extreme ultraviolet system, which costs $380 million each.

Boxing is a dangerous sport. Bare-knuckled fighting is even worse. Along with the long-term risks associated with repeated blows to the head, going no holds barred can potentially lead to catastrophic acute injuries, even the very risk of being &ldquo;unalived,&rdquo; to use the algorithm-friendly term. What does this have to do with hypergrowth stocks? In my opinion, everything.



I suppose that the visceral thrill of man-to-man competition &ndash; and emerging victorious &ndash; elicits a euphoric sensation that no other sport can fully capture. And that&rsquo;s a similar thrill with hypergrowth stocks in the market paradigm. Usually, financial advisors direct you to the Warren Buffett approach of making smart decisions over the long haul.



However, Buffett is blessed with good genes and not all of us may last that long. Time is money and with the right speculative idea, you can acquire wealth quicker than you imagined. At the same time, you can lose everything with one ill-timed blow.



Forgive the graphic imagery but this is serious stuff. If you can handle the risk and can gamble responsibly, then these hypergrowth stocks may be of interest.

<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/growthstocks_1600_03-300x169.jpg" alt="A businessman's hand arranging wooden cube blocks to represent growth stocks. Top Growth Stocks to Buy"><div>Source: 3rdtimeluckystudio / Shutterstock</div></div>Based in Reno, Nevada, Aqua Metals (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/aqms-stock-quote/">AQMS</a>) falls under the waste management industry. Specifically, it engages in the recycling of metals through its patented <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/AQMS/profile/">AquaRefining technology</a>. What makes the innovation compelling is that the system produces metals and alloys that can be reintegrated into the battery manufacturing supply chain. As well, the metals can be distributed for advanced manufacturing industries.



Given that we&rsquo;re on a pathway to new paradigms in areas such as mobility and productivity, Aqua Metals could become powerfully relevant. However, prospective speculators must be convinced in the long-term narrative. For example, the company isn&rsquo;t profitable, incurring a loss per share of 5 cents in the past four quarters. Also, the average &ldquo;earnings&rdquo; surprise came out to 7.5% below breakeven.



Still, what&rsquo;s enticing is the growth narrative. In the trailing 12 months (TTM), Aqua posted sales of $25,000. I understand that such a haul is nothing to write home about. However, by year&rsquo;s end, revenue could soar to $1.29 million. What&rsquo;s even more enticing, by fiscal 2025, sales could skyrocket to $20.88 million. Analysts are looking at an 11-bagger opportunity with a <a href="https://www.tipranks.com/stocks/aqms/forecast">price target of $4</a>.



In other words, for the risk taker, it&rsquo;s one of the hypergrowth stocks to consider.



<h2>Quantum Computing (QUBT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/quantum-computing-3-300x169.jpg" alt="A concept image showing a quantum computer with a matrix background; quantum computing. leading quantum stocks, Best Quantum Computing Stocks to Buy"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>While seemingly everyone is talking about artificial intelligence these days, another tech segment deserves consideration and that&rsquo;s the next generation of supercomputers. Here, Quantum Computing (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/qubt-stock-quote/">QUBT</a>) makes its business model as unambiguous as possible. Targeting its namesake industry, Quantum offers accessible and affordable quantum-computing machinery.



Fundamentally, what makes QUBT stock attractive is the underlying sector. Rather than bits, quantum computers use qubits. They can exist in multiple states at one time, which is difficult to conceptualize in a short article. Long story short, quantum machines can process myriad advanced calculations simultaneously. Eventually, the tech should render classical computers obsolete.



Now, we&rsquo;re a bit away from everyone accessing their own stratospherically advanced computers. But that&rsquo;s also what makes QUBT one of the hypergrowth stocks to consider. It&rsquo;s the early innings and shares could swing dramatically higher from here.



Analysts believe that by year&rsquo;s end, revenue could hit $1 million. That&rsquo;s up 179.3% from last year. By 2025, the tally could rise to $2.5 million, making it a speculative play worth putting on your radar.



<h2>Knightscope (KSCP)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/kscp1600-300x169.png" alt="Knightscope (KSCP) security robot patrols an outdoor parking lot"><div>Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Easily one of the riskiest hypergrowth stocks available, Knightscope (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/kscp-stock-quote/">KSCP</a>) carries a lot of potential thanks to its security-related innovations. However, convincing investors will be a different story. Since the start of the year, KSCP stock suffered a loss of more than 78%. You&rsquo;ve got to be prepared for volatility. Still, Knightscope&rsquo;s autonomous security robots (ASRs) could shift the security and protective service landscape.



One of the biggest challenges in the security sector is that simple interactions can quickly escalate into bigger problems. A suspect may have an attitude problem or different parties can read into messages that were simply misinterpreted. However, by putting an autonomous robot into the mix, the risk of escalation is mitigated. Even if a violent incident erupted, the robot would be on the front line, not a human operator.



Still, it&rsquo;s a risky idea. Knightscope isn&rsquo;t profitable yet. And revenue in the TTM period is small at $12.15 million. Admittedly, analysts see an erosion in the top line, which doesn&rsquo;t help sentiment. Nevertheless, by fiscal 2025, sales could bump up to $17 million. If so, that would imply a nearly 42% growth rate.



On <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/penny-stocks/">Penny Stocks</a> and Low-Volume Stocks:&#8239;With only the rarest exceptions,&nbsp;InvestorPlace&nbsp;does not publish commentary about companies that have a market cap of less than $100 million or trade less than 100,000 shares each day. That&rsquo;s because these &ldquo;penny stocks&rdquo; are frequently the playground for scam artists and market manipulators. If we ever do publish commentary on a low-volume stock that may be affected by our commentary, we demand that&#8239;InvestorPlace.com&rsquo;s&nbsp;writers disclose this fact and warn readers of the risks.
