Netflix forecast a second consecutive quarter of slowing sales growth, feeding investor anxiety about the streaming giant’s future.

The company projected revenue of $12.9 billion in the current quarter and earnings of 82 cents a share, both a little shy of analysts’ expectations. The shares fell as much as 9% in after-hours trading.Second-quarter results were in line with Wall Street’s consensus, but most of the attention has been on future performance.

Shares in Netflix have declined more than 40% over the last year, as the company’s pursuit of Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. and subsequent financial results have caused investors to worry that the leader in streaming has lost momentum.

A global study of more than 13,000 workers finds major life events – from returning to work after becoming a parent, to getting divorced and losing a loved one – can have a significant impact on people's health and wellbeing, contributing to an estimated $636 billion in lost productivity and 1.7 billion working days lost globally each year. Economic modelling suggests earlier mental health support before or during major life events could save $42 billion and recover 108 million working days annually. Those who took proactive steps such as talking to friends and family, seeking professional support or speaking to a healthcare provider, took an average of five fewer days off work due to better health, with 7 in 10 wishing they had taken earlier action to support their mental health before or during a major life event. Findings reveal a significant opportunity to improve health, boost the economy and help people navigate life's biggest moments through earlier mental health support.
