Social Distancing Is Good for HBO Max, Terrible for Peacock
AT&T (NYSE: T) and Comcast (NASDAQ: CMCSA) are about to launch their highly anticipated streaming services. Peacock, from Comcast, will make its soft launch next month, and AT&T's HBO Max will follow in May.
Social distancing practices have increased the amount of time consumers are streaming video, so it seems like lucky timing for both. But only HBO Max is set to actually benefit from increased streaming, as Peacock's appeal and business model is seeing substantial damage already.
