Is Roku the Best Way to Invest in Cord-Cutting?

Cord-cutting is a growing trend in the United States. Research firm eMarketer expects nearly 5 million Americans to stop subscribing to cable this year, accelerating from last year. And even if consumers aren't cutting the cord, they're spending less time watching traditional television and more time streaming video or using social media.

I previously argued the best way to invest in cord-cutting is to buy shares of Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) or Google parent company Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL). But Roku (NASDAQ: ROKU) has since become a publicly traded company, and it makes a great case for being a way to invest in the trend.
