Are you hinting that’s not enough?
And remember exactly how that went down? It’s befitting a reality show on mtv (low grade)

DIS is currently trading at $118.96 (at the moment I'm typing this), which is only .10¢ more than it was trading for at the close on July 17, 2015 ($118.86).
Besides the COVID era hill climb and subsequent steep drop, it's more of a kid coaster or omnimover dark ride.

Sure…minimum)…but in the end they’ve basically stagnated. Any decent corporate governance would make a change…but this one is all puppets and that is a crime.
In the end…what Roy Disney raised hell about arrived…it just took a bit longer to come to pass

You'd have been better off in a bond fund over the last 10 years, despite the bond market being negative over the last five years. Wild.

Disney was never…and will likely never be…a “get rich quick” stock. It’s consistent performance rooted in the name and Rep.
And that is valuable. But it’s not the computer controlled, freewheeling modern market. Not much of a candidate for pump and dump.
By far the most profitable time was the splits of the late 80’s and 90’s…
I had a tiny bit as a novice for the 98 one…when I was in the Valley
I don’t believe there’s been one since?
…but it was either more shares or money for La Bamba…so that was inevitable

Disney has been a garbage stock for 10 years and nothing you can say will change the data. Unless you effectively trade it, holding it has been nothing short of abysmal since 2015. The results are in...these people are incompetent.Disney was never…and will likely never be…a “get rich quick” stock. It’s consistent performance rooted in the name and Rep.

I'd say a really bad decision was bringing back Iger the second time which followed another horrible decision of hiring Chapek.

That seems a tad harsh…
Did you miss the part where it never yielded short term gains?
That’s its strength.
Some things still would require patience…quick scores tend to be less sturdy than an egg..
The scary part is that has been proven about every 10 years for close to 100 years…
Except now…which means the juice required to keep the horse running is probably so massive there’s no way to quantify it…
Fun times

Remember…he was never hired
He was a throw in and they chose to keep him against their better judgement
