Hulu is a money-printing machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its 47 million paying subscribers and in-show ads generated $9.6 billion in revenue in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The streaming business has become a $300 billion industry over the last 10 years. Netflix, Amazon, Apple, NBC, Disney, HBO – everybody has their own streaming platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chances are you\u2019re a subscriber to at least one of the services mentioned above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what\u2019s the best way to invest in this massive industry?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It seems like the money has already been made in the giants like Netflix, Amazon, and Apple, but what about Hulu? Could it become as big as the others?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only time will tell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s how to buy Hulu stock in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can You Buy Hulu Stock? Is Hulu Publicly Traded?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the time being, Hulu is not a publicly-traded company, meaning you can\u2019t invest in the company directly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there is a way to invest indirectly\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hulu was planning an IPO as early as 2010 but, so far, these plans have not materialized. While there\u2019s no Hulu stock symbol to find on your brokerage website or trading platform, there is a way to participate in the company\u2019s upside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here the process of how to buy Hulu stock indirectly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who Owns Hulu?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hulu is structured as a joint-venture between Disney and Comcast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Disney owns a 67% stake and Comcast owns the remaining 33%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While these companies aren\u2019t planning on selling Hulu to the public via an IPO, both Disney and Comcast are publicly-traded companies. This means we can invest in these businesses and gain exposure to Hulu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Hulu\u2019s business continues to grow, that should be reflected in Disney\u2019s and Comcast\u2019s stock prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only 1 of these companies, in my opinion, is the best way to invest in Hulu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Invest in Hulu Stock<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2019, Disney guaranteed to buy Comcast\u2019s stake in Hulu for a minimum of $9 billion in 2024. This would give Hulu a valuation of $27.5 billion, about 15% of Disney\u2019s current market capitalization ($170 billion).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my opinion, the best way to gain exposure to Hulu is to purchase shares of Disney (NYSE: DIS<\/strong><\/a>). Disney owns 67% of Hulu and will likely own all of it by the end of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Hulu grows, Disney will benefit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember, Hulu represents less than 10% of Disney\u2019s valuation – don\u2019t buy shares of Disney unless you believe in the other 90% of its business, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re bullish on the future of streaming and want to make a more direct investment in the industry in general, consider Netflix (NASDAQ: <\/a>NFLX<\/a><\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n

How to Buy the Hulu IPO<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned above, Hulu intended to go public many years ago, but backed out and was eventually bought by Disney and Comcast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Create or login to your brokerage account (if you don\u2019t have one, we recommend <\/strong>eToro<\/a><\/strong>)<\/strong><\/li>\n
