Chose to sell at start of pandemic, as it relies on density of people. Then it kept rising, based on streaming. Market was giving a lot of premium to streaming potential. Looking 5 years forward, he couldn't see that streaming subscribers would justify the expectations. Market's figured this out too.

DON'T BUY
DIS vs. NFLX Opportunities with each, as they've both pulled back. Both have streaming, and DIS is more diverse. But NFLX is one of the world's greatest businesses. More subscribers to get and lines of business to add. In the next year or so, it will be free cashflow positive. In 5 years, so much free cash, it will buy back stock, make acquisitions, or pay dividends.

BUY
If we're heading to the end of Covid, travel stocks like this are definite buys.
entertainment services
BUY
Very unique business that is able to create and monetize original content.
Doesn't think that Covid-19 will have long time effect on theme parks.
Streaming business is doing very well and will be valuable down the road.
High P/E Ration (~30) is justified as the business is valuable.
As economy re-opens will do even better.
Quarter to quarter announcements are not a good indication of value.
entertainment services
DON'T BUY
Doesn't check all his boxes, especially on valuation. Business model requires density of people. Streaming got a lot of hype, but the bloom is now off the rose with all the competition. Looking out 3-5 years, priced for very good fundamental performance already built into today's price.

BUY
Disney+ has done very well during Covid. She'd buy at current levels. However, shares pulled back because subs in Disney+ pulled back or slowed as economies reopening. Next year, she expects Disney to produce more content, so subs will rise. Parks and cruise ships are reopening plays. parks are doing well, but international visits have lagged because of closed borders--but this will change and improve. They have pricing power when people visit their theme parks.

TOP PICK
Good growth on media and is one of the best competitor with Netflix. Not worried about subscriptions going down. The parks business needs to come back since it is 45% of their revenues and we should see it next year. Cutting their dividend was probably the right move. Can grow nicely over the next little while. (Analysts’ price target is $194.32)
entertainment services
TOP PICK
Amazing company. Huge library of intellectual property, with continued ability to create new. But people are focused on subscriber growth. Subscriber room to run in Europe and India. Big opportunities are in virtual reality to movies and sports. Well run. Great long term. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $196.53)

BUY
This topped $200 during the March reopening rally but fell to $147 today. He admits he called this too early and started buying in the $170s. What happened was that Delta derailed the theme parks and Disney+ subscriber numbers fell short. But the sell-off now is overdone though he doesn't know where this will bottom. However, consider where Disney will be a year from now. The cruises will do good business, Disney+ will raise subs, and the company will find a way for ESPN to benefit from sports gambling.

TOP PICK
She'd add here. Subscriber growth not as expected last week, as content creation has been lumpy. Disney+ is expanding globally next year. Company expects international visits to pick up the slack still resulting from Covid. Seeing increasing spend per person at theme parks. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $198.78)
entertainment services
HOLD
The big issue is that the stock ran up a lot because of streaming business. Their subscriber growth has really decelerated over the last 3 quarters.
entertainment services
STRONG BUY
Hard to fault Disney. Targeting 250M subscribers. Disney+ is sticky with families. Attraction parks will be a huge tailwind. They are adding new revenue streams too.
entertainment services
TOP PICK
Growth in streaming has peaked at a moment in time. Investing a ton of money, releasing a slew of new movies. Footprint in streaming is widening geographically. He's predicting it will double its streaming subscriber base in the next 3-4 years. ESPN is bulletproof. Theme parks are coming back. Buy one of the world's great franchises when it's on sale. The streaming services alone give a sum of the parts value over $200 a share. Phenomenal at leveraging franchise purchases into 25-years of new products. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $200.08)
