"A negative reaction to Netflix's second-quarter results also weighed on the S&P 500 and Nasdaq today, with the communication services stock sliding 7.3% — its worst day since April 17. While the company's earnings of 80 cents per share beat analysts' estimates, its revenue of $12.56 billion fell short and its third-quarter revenue forecast came in slightly below the consensus."
