Friday night, banks aren't open on Sundays and the red eye for Vegas is 20% off on Fri vs Sun.You mean Disney is going to drain the pension fund and then file chapter 11 at 10:00 pm on a Sunday night?

I think the two Bobs should battle in a steel cage. Proceeds for the event could go to "Give Kids the World."

That would have to be the worst steel cage match ever. Neither of them would do anything. At best we'd get competing diatribes and a race to the bottom. If it came down to actual fisticuffs I guess I'd bet on Chapek.

The hype train sailed a couple of years ago. This is really a $100 stock and the analysts are reassessing the valuation without the hype of D+ and the Fox deal going forward. It will settle and maybe a dividend will come
@seascape you thought $112 was good when?

I still believe Disney is going to reach $180 by the end of the year. I will post more after the quarterly report.
Does Bob know that?

Is his status on Linked In "available soon"?
Prediction: Modest dividends announced at next Quarterly report. That should shore up the stonks.

Yup. There are only a couple of articles so far. People on Twitter think they're going to get a month of free service for the down-time.Hulu Down: Users Report Widespread Problems Accessing Streaming Service

DIS now below $120, up only 6% over the last 5 years.

And masterfully played by Bob 1.0, leaving when he did and well before the proverbial **** hit the fan.

For better or worse, Disney's future is tied with Disney+. For all its steady, profitable revenue from parks, cruises, etc., it wants to be viewed as a tech/streaming company. Remember this when the bubble bursts, or they miss their rosy subscriber projections, or *gasp* they start to lose subs.

That seems like a bad strategy for the long term. Look at what's happening to Netflix!

Them wanting to be seen as a tech company was a mistake for Disney long term. None of the streaming services can produce enough content to keep people subscribed and the second even a hint of those subscription numbers dropping or slowing down hits, the sell off begins.
They really should have tempered the talk about Disney+ and been reminding investors that are more than that. In addition, bring back the dividend.
