PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 12/19, Up 31%) What a great transition story with the move into streaming. They have a fantastic content library. He recently took some profits, due to their exposure to theme parks in Asia. He will gladly be a buyer again in the near future.

BUY

It has an incredibly deep library of content. Disney has legs. He likes it. It has 26 million subscribers after only one quarter (he predicts it'll hit 100 million), theme parks, and their cruise line. Earnings today beat, though not outstanding.

WEAK BUY

Trading right at 200-day moving average. Attractive right now. Suffered because of coronavirus outbreak. Theme parks may be affected if it gets worse. Disney Plus running well. A bit rich. You're paying 25x for high single-digit growth.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

In a few years, Netflix will be every viewer's base. On top of that, you may subscribe to Disney+ or HBO. The amount on streaming spend is $50-60. DIS has a great franchise of content (Disney, Star Wars, Pixar). He trimmed his holding when this rose last year. He really likes it. Buy on dips.

BUY

Nice trend now, despite competition with Netflix and others. He would buy it today.

BUY

Netflix will survive but Disney is their biggest competition in streaming. But Disney offers strong content, including Star Wars. Also, their amusement parks will continue to do well. Disney bought Fox, and though some of those shows haven't done well, Fox will recover. Also, Disney has a great brand name.

HOLD

Seasonal from now to April. Sometimes this stock gets ahead of itself. Now, we're seeing a little pullback, but the wider chart shows higher lows. They're in a competitive space. Hold until April when you can sell.

COMMENT

They crossed one of their technical breakout points. On the negative side, the earning estimates have been going lower. Earnings going lower and expectations going higher, it could be in a bind. Just breaking even looks right to him.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

He predicts a general market pullback in January, so wait. $140 is support, though DIS could fall back to $130. The chart shows higher lows--a great chart.

BUY

He owns this one and bought it after they purchased 21st Century Fox, which unshackled their marketing opportunities. It gave them a large film library and allowed them to set the stage for entry into streaming. This is a company that is hitting on all cylinders. One of the top brands in the world. Star Wars is going to help them continue to set records for film revenues, which will help them fund their advances in the streaming wars -- particularly against Netflix.

HOLD

Disney+ has added subscribers. She has owned them for some time. They have good content and it is priced reasonably. She signed up and was impressed with all the streaming options that were available. The theme parks are doing well globally as has the movie production segment. It is reasonably priced and although they will likely lose money on their streaming services for the first couple of years, she sees it as a good long term hold.

BUY

For years, it wasn't doing much, but he bought it because Disney+ was coming. Also, their other businesses are great. Buy this for the long-term. They will grow their dividend 10% annually. Valuation isn't expensive compared to its peers. Disney+ subs will exceed expectations.

COMMENT

It’s a huge, great company. It’s picked up from Disney+. The competition is looking to pan out for them, but Netflix is still competitive. From October to February, they tend to do well.

HOLD

It's peaked for years at 4x its book value without breaking through. But when they announced they were streaming, the stock broke out. We've had a speculative buy signal just as earnings forecasts are tailing off. As long as it holds at $140 support, you're safe. Fundamentals vs. technical data.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 13/18, Up 31%) Liked the deal with 20th Century Fox. It diluted the cord-cutting with ABC and ESPN, and set the stage for Disney to get into the streaming wars. Trading around 20x earnings, while Netflix trades at 3x that value. Disney has the chops to go toe to toe with Netflix.
