TOP PICK

The Walt Disney Company, together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, is a leading diversified international family entertainment and media enterprise that includes Parks, Experiences and Products; Media & Entertainment Distribution; and three content groups—Studios, General Entertainment and Sports–focused on developing and producing content for DTC, theatrical and linear platforms. Disney is a Dow 30 company and had annual revenues of $65.4 billion in its Fiscal Year 2020. Social media mentions are up 21% in the past 24h.

Unspecified

It is deep in debt on the streaming platform component, is not making money on it, and may sell programs to Netflix. The Parks business is amazing and Avatar will make a fortune. For streaming he prefers Netflix which makes a lot of money.

HOLD

It reports Wednesday. Though it's still early, the report will reflect on returning CEO Bob Iger. But he expects things to return to some normalcy under him. His shares were obliterated by the former CEO, but he sees happier days ahead and is holding on.

TOP PICK
It has been under pressure but the movie business is booming and the theme parks are very popular so they just keep raising prices. It has been losing money in the streaming business, $1 1/2 billion in the last quarter, but that's probably the peak. The streaming business should become profitable in the next couple of years. It is currently costing about $3 per share. He is looking for Disney earnings to double over the couple of years. It owns an incomparable set of franchises. Shares should double over the next few years. Buy 28 Hold 5 Sell 0 (Analysts’ price target is $124.52)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 11/22, Down 33%) He sold half at $170. Activist Peltz wants to sell some of the TV networks. He's deciding whether to add to his position. Shares are attractive now after falling a lot in the past year.
COMMENT

He will vote in favour of activist investor Norman Peltz. Disney needs more board oversight and has made mistakes. Blackrock has a big stake in Disney and he supports Blackrock.

DON'T BUY
He always said if it got into the $90s, he'd buy. But as a money manager, he reserves the right to change his mind. With current information, he's not comfortable. Management change. Streaming is a profit challenge. He'll watch it. Needs a lot more confidence before he'd buy.
STRONG BUY
A great company. Has come down a lot due to Covid, a new CEO and streaming losses. He owns this because of their content which extend to theme parts, stores, products and not just its streamer. The new CEO will revive things on the creative side. As travel expands, people will go to theme parks, especially China. Their subscription numbers are good, will improve and their losses will slow.
BUY
For a beginner's TFSA. Nobody likes DIS, it's sold off 50%. But everyone still gets excited about Disney. Will be a good turnaround.
BUY
Strongest turnaround story in 2023 Disney is most likely to turn around. Shares are now at pandemic lows. Yes, there are headwinds, but Disney won't face the same pressure as during the pandemic. Also, theme park revenue will probably go higher. Third, Bob Iger has returned as CEO, a superb operator. Four, Disney will be releasing several blockbusters. Five, China will reopen and open a huge source of revenue.
HOLD
It was a disaster under its former CEO, but he has faith in the returning CEO turning things around. Their franchises--Marvel, Star Wars and Disney itself--are the best and powerful. He's holding on, has faith. The shares have fallen so much, they're too cheap to ignore.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 10/21, Down 44%) Great brand. Lots of work to do. 40-45% of revenue still comes from the parks, should see better numbers in 2023. Needs to increase pricing on Disney+, great library of content. ESPN and regular TV have been big drags. 20th Century Fox acquisition needs cost tightening.
COMMENT
He doesn't like it. It has broken support on a five year chart and is maybe oversold but hasn't formed a base yet. Could be sold for tax loss purposes
BUY
Very strong brand, but change in management has created problems. Covid-19 pandemic very hard on company. Disney + streaming business has hundreds of millions of customers. Investing heavily in new content for streaming. $33 billion investment in new programming will be fruitful. Strong legacy content.
BUY
Always resisted the idea of the superstar CEO, but in this case they might be right. Fan of the new guy. The last one was a disaster. Big comeback from Covid in live concerts, parks, and cruises. Streaming has a vast library. Looks cheap. A lot of moving parts.
