Fox just agreed to buy Roku for $22 billion. Roku's stock price is shooting up to its highest level in four years on the news.

## Idea

Fox is making a massive bet to pivot into digital streaming by buying Roku. Even though Fox has to spend heavily to make the purchase, investors usually cheer deals that clearly modernize a company. With Fox entering the streaming hardware and OS space instantly, the market may re-rate Fox's stock higher as it is no longer just a traditional cable news and sports network. This is a momentum play on Fox embracing the digital future.
