This summary was created by AI, based on 11 opinions in the last 12 months.

Walt Disney Co. has faced significant challenges, particularly with its streaming business, which has experienced a decline in margins despite previously turning a profit. Experts highlight the company's strong fundamentals, such as their iconic theme parks and burgeoning streaming content, which could drive future growth. The recent transition to a new CEO has raised hopes for revitalization, although some analysts express skepticism about immediate catalysts for change. Overall, many see the stock as being at a reasonable valuation compared to its past performance, with a decent dividend that is expected to continue rising. While unanimous optimism is lacking, patience seems to be the prevailing strategy among investors.

BUY
For Children’s portfolio – he says he would prefer an ETF. Otherwise, yes something that the child might take an interest in and follow it.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 8/09. Up 53.5%.)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 8/09. Up 55%.) Theme parks had started to improve and the film business was doing well and ESPN revenues were rising. Still likes.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 8/09. Up 59.09%.)
TOP PICK
Well managed. Films are doing well. Own ESPN, which has done extremely well on the cable side. Trading at about 16-17 times earnings.
BUY
Reasonably well run. Not only own films but also broadcast networks such as ABC and ESPN plus theme parks in California and Florida. Consumer discretionary stocks so it does exhibit cyclicality with the economy. Not expensive with a dividend yield of about 3%.
BUY
Well managed. ESPN and ABC are the business drivers. 43-45% of business comes out of these businesses. Well priced here.
TOP PICK
Great management. Most people think of their parks but only 30% of revenue comes from this. More of a media company with ESPN and ABC making up about 45%. Also have Pixar for making animated movies. Will probably earn $1.75 this year and $1.95 next year. A weaker US$ will benefit them.
TOP PICK
Consumer's product so is a bet on reflation (stimulation of economy by increasing money supply) trade as well as international trade. Has a great international presence. Also derive a tremendous amount of the revenue from advertising. On the rebound in ads, they will participate.
DON'T BUY
Has 3 parts. Studio/automation/film, theme parks and television assets. 2 of them are not doing great and the other one is muddling along. Not a big fan of this one because demographics are going to hurt them in the long run.
COMMENT
The ultimate consumer exposed company. Parks are going to be challenged. Have reduced prices, which will have an impact on margins. Long-term great stock and dividend is safe. There will be volatility in the near term. $16 would probably be a real steal.
TOP PICK
Going back 5 or 10 years, the stock has been trading with an average PE of about 17 or 18 and is now 9. Very high quality brands. Own EFPN, probably the strongest cable network. Trades at less than 10X earnings. Most concerns were about the DVD sales that were down in the 4th quarter. Long-term this will be fine.
COMMENT
His company doesn't like the movie business. He owns this one because of ESP and theme parks. Movie business is a classic “no barrier to entry” business. Historically it hasn't been a very good business.
TOP PICK
Stock price has fallen 25%. This is a very well run company. Fundamentals are very good and valuation is very sound.
HOLD
Cyclical company because on the programming side, people are watching less TV and more computer programs. Theme parks are starting to decline because younger population is waning. Movie sector can be very volatile.
