BUY

She's owned this for a year since Disney was at $124, based on a thesis that Disney would ultimately earn $10/share, which is taking a little longer than expected. When it does, DIS will be trading at 18 or 20x, slightly lower than the overall market. She bought it as a long-term hold. She doesn't trade it. Disney deserves a premium valuation given a strong CEO and their amazing products. The theme parks are returning despite Delta.

COMMENT

Yesterday, the CEO made a mistake uttering "headwind" in that the Delta variant will slow down the production of content for Disney+. Investors seize of that word as an excuse to sell. Otherwise, he likes the stock.

entertainment services

BUY

It is a classic growth stock. The brand is incredible. ESPN has pretty good control of American sports. The price is reasonable. It is a company you can buy and hold for the long term and feel quite secure. They are a must to have when families are in that part of their life cycle.

entertainment services

BUY

A winner whether investors panic over the Delta variant or if we continued to reopen. It's trading $5 below last week's strong earnings report. If there's a lockdown, there's Disney+. If there's no lockdown and the reopening continues, there are the theme parks and cruise ships.

entertainment services

BUY

Likes it here at the 200-day MA support level. Parks and resorts will rebound very strongly. Disney+ subscriber base is ahead of expectations. Seems a bit pricey, though it's a premium name. Doesn't own, but would consider.

entertainment services

BUY

Buy this as a long-term earnings grower, not a trade. The Delta seems to be effecting the reopening. He expects decent earnings growth, though. [Note: audio problems]

PARTIAL BUY

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Caveats: The Delta variant is hitting less-vaccinated American states hard and this could have a spillover effect on Disney’s theme parks. Shutting them down, however, seems unlikely, but rising cases could dampen attendence. Maybe. The cruise lines are a larger risk, since outbreaks on a self-contained vessel at sea are hard to contain. That said, demand for cruises across the board remain strong, despite scary headlines. These caveats will likely limit Disney’s climb in the weeks to come, making it unlikely for the stock to break to new highs. That said, Disney could release Again, it comes down the virus and how deeply it effects the reopening. Consider this a partial buy.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 08/20, Up 37%) Had a really big run. Bought it for the reopening potential and travel. Also a broadcaster too. Disney+ has become a huge competitor to Netflix. Has come off from the highs. Cruise lines are not back yet and amusement parks are not 100% yet. One of the best travel related companies.

entertainment services

TOP PICK

Has owned for many years. It was a pandemic play through Disney+ which grew tremendously. It's also a reopening play through its parks and resorts, which are now all open. They could be at full capacity by year's end. They couldn't launch their films in cinemas, though. Their extensive film library was a benefit. Subscriber growth will subside over time, but Disney+ gives them another option in releasing content/movies. She'd be buying this now. (Analysts’ price target is $203.75)

BUY on WEAKNESS

Black Widow's $80 million opening weekend (both cinema box office and home revenues) boosted Disney stock today. However, the negative futures for the wider market pressured Disney prices at the start which in turn offered a juicy buying opportunity.

entertainment services

BUY

It's been a bit down so far this year, which historically has been a good time to buy it. He held on. The stock will come back, because it is the ultimate reopening story.

entertainment services

BUY

Last year, the story was about Disney+'s huge success. This year, the story should be about the reopening of the theme parks and later the movie theatres. However, Covid winners are unfairly pigeonholed as reopening losers by investors. The CEO can turn things around by reminding Wall Street that its other businesses exist and poised for the great reopening, even if Disney+'s growth moderates. The CEO must avoid the trap of Disney+ becoming another ESPN, which dragged the stock down for years after their viewing numbers peaked.

entertainment services

BUY

It was negatively impacted by parks. As all their markets open up they think traffic will be better than before COVID. The subscriber stats were not as strong as people had expected. They have an unmatched level of content. It will be a buy if you think the subscriber numbers will continue to improve.

entertainment services

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 21/20, Up 76%) Streaming services were a grand slam success during the pandemic, and this looks to continue. Strength has been its own content and the franchises it buys. Content is king. Theme parks and movie theatres will come back strongly, as people have money to spend.

entertainment services

DON'T BUY

It's refocusing from parks, ESPN and films to Disney+. The stock is being revalued this way. It's now an expensive stock. By 2024-25, they could make $10/share in earnings, but that's still at 18x earnings forward. Still high. The price would have to fall and he doesn't know when/if that will be.
