Shares of Netflix Inc. (NFLX) jumped Tuesday as investors saw the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) net neutrality plan being a positive for digital video rental service.
On Tuesday, regulators adopted new plans that seek to be sure consumers can access any site at prices and speeds they are utilised to. The plans are certainly not without controversy and possess been debated for almost a decade, but the news helped Netflix shares rise $8.19, or 4.6%, to $186.24.
