TLDR:

- “Powerful Democratic office holder said I should be president”
- “oh look, I’m hosting the living Beatles”
- “I was one of the last people knighted by Queen Elizabeth”

He also says he’s “obsessed” with finding a successor, which is at odds with the rest of the article as he’s clearly obsessed with himself.

I am not sure who this person is - is it Sean Nyberg’s burner? - but they don’t seem acquainted with the conventional definition of grifting.

Grift: to obtain (money or property) illicitly (as in a confidence game)

The stock is down 31% from where it was five years ago (safely pre-Covid) and only up 10% from where it was ten years ago. It’s a little odd to laud certain granular details of the financial picture of the company without noting that. Who’s the grifter here?

Actually the stock is flat over the past 10 years.

This Duck fellow sure sounds a lot like Nyberg.

And remember - one picture without any context tells the entire parks tale.

He seemed to focus heavily on revenue, but what about net profit? Adjusted for inflation, net profit is down from the mid/late 2010's highs. So even with ever increasing revenue, likely inflation related, the costs are also increasing which brings up the key thing that investors look for which is growth. Quarterly YOY growth from the end of the pandemic has been minimal at best and is currently trending the wrong direction. There's no upside for investors because there is no percieved growth opportunity for DIS, and that's why the stock has been floundering for the past 6 months.

I simply asked Chat GPT to create a Disney CEO job posting.
Now we wait on applicants.

Job Posting: CEO of Disney

Position:
Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Location: Magic Kingdom HQ, Burbank, CA (Mickey’s Office)

Salary: Negotiable (Will accept gold doubloons, magic beans, or just pure imagination)

Benefits:

  • Unlimited FastPasses (including the Haunted Mansion—if you dare).
  • Complimentary Mickey ears in every color.
  • Free churros and Dole Whips (all you can eat, really).
  • Genie at your beck and call (no wishing for more wishes).
  • Annual trips to the happiest places on Earth (Paris, Tokyo, or even Space Mountain).
Job Summary:Are you the kind of person who sees Hakuna Matata as a viable business strategy? Do you believe in the power of dreams, even if it means chasing them down with a net and a bucket of pixie dust? Then you might just be the visionary leader we're looking for to helm the most magical company in the world!

As the CEO of Disney, you'll be responsible for making all of our dreams (and stock prices) come true. You'll need to navigate the boardroom as smoothly as Aladdin on his magic carpet and bring as much charm and diplomacy as Cinderella at the royal ball. Be prepared to answer tough questions from our investors—like why Elsa is still so cool after all these years.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead with the wisdom of Rafiki, the bravery of Mulan, and the charisma of Jack Sparrow.
  • Strategically deploy Mickey, Minnie, and the rest of the gang for maximum fun and profit.
  • Ensure all theme parks are truly the happiest places on Earth (including keeping the churro prices just right).
  • Oversee the creation of heartwarming tales that make people laugh, cry, and queue for hours.
  • Mediate disputes between rival characters (Donald and Goofy have been at it for years).
Qualifications:

  • Must have at least 10 years of experience in herding cats (or at least dwarfs).
  • A master’s degree in Dreamology, or equivalent experience as a Disney Princess or Villain.
  • Proven track record of turning pumpkins into carriages or water into wine (that’s a different story, but still cool).
  • Ability to understand and speak fluent “Duck” and “Mouse.”
  • Willingness to sign autographs for children, fans, and the occasional fairy godmother.
Preferred Skills:

  • Familiarity with fairy tales, fables, and talking animals.
  • Experience handling enchanted objects and unpredictable genies.
  • Strong command over catchy musical numbers (singing is a plus, but not required).
Application Process:Please submit your resume, cover letter, and a video of you singing your favorite Disney song while riding a rollercoaster. Bonus points if you do it in a full costume.

Disney is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees, whether you’re a mermaid, beast, or someone who just really loves theme parks.

Remember: At Disney, it’s not just a small world—it’s a magical one! Apply today, and let’s see where this storybook leads!
