Just saw a cast by youtuber HeelvsBabyface "Blizzard FIRE C.F.O (Chief Financial Officer) Before he LEAVES ANYWAY!!"
TLDR - The CFO of Activision Blizzard, with a long history previously at Disney, had been poached by Netflix. In a somewhat strange turn, Activision Blizzard then sack him putting him on paid leave so he can show cause. Watch the cast as it has a lot of detail and links to much more information. Stocks fell a percent on the announcement in afterhours trading. HeelvsBabyface speculates it might be an attempt at face-saving by the company.
What a way to start the year for Activsion Blizzard.
