Disney Stock Falls to $91 and Change On Reports of Declining Attendance At Their Groomer Theme Parks

In 2021, Disney's stock had been at $198.

Now, it's at $91. For those of you who aren't as good at math at me, $91 is what we call "less." It's the pointy side of the crocodile.

Supposedly, Disney's stock price is falling due to poor attendance at their parks.

There was once a time in the United States when a trip to Disneyland was part of the summer vacation standard. But those times are increasingly changing, and many today despair of the chance to ever return. And that's not helping Disney (DIS) shares, down over 2% in the closing minutes of Monday's trading. The price of a Disney experience these days is, for a lot of families out there, downright impossible to fit into a budget. So Disney, facing a decline in park attendance, is working to turn things around because a couple dozen super-wealthy people a day do not make for a working theme park.
Disney is paring back hotel rates, offering summer dining plans, and even lowering ticket prices on some of its parks in a bid to draw regular people back to the park. Given that prices of a one-day park hopper ticket had risen as high as $254 each, it was clear something needed to be done. The discounted ticket is $154 but only allows access to Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, and EPCOT. Adding actual Disney World to that will run another $109 per day minimum, which actually makes prices higher overall.

While families are left with the terrible choice of seeing Disney for a couple of days or buying an entire television, Disney has announced that the animatronic character "Liver Lips McGrowl" is no longer a part of the Country Bear Jamboree. A recently concluded seven-month refurbishing effort saw the character removed, as his name was considered "derogatory" to alcoholics.

Meanwhile, in a clear showing of no confidence in Disney, former Marvel owner (and Trump Mar-a-Lago friend) Ike Perlmutter has dumped his entire several-billion dollar stake in Disney.

The stock is down 26% since April 2 -- when it closed at a 52-week high of $122.82 ahead of the shareholder vote.
It was down more than 3%, to $91.22, in midday trading Tuesday.
Perlmutter said he sold his stake between early April and mid-July at an average price of just under $115.

He expects the share price to continue to plunge, he told the Journal, and would jump in to buy back his stake if Disney's shares decline to $65 to $75 per share.
Disney did not comment.
Perlmutter's move comes after he gave control of his voting shares to activist investor Nelson Peltz in an ill-fated campaign to secure two seats on Disney's board of directors.

Nelson Peltz dumped his entire position of Disney stock previously, and now Perlmutter has dumped his billions of dollars worth of stock. It just could be that both of these men selling off their huge pool of stocks is partly responsible for the fall in Disney stock price.

So now Iger and his board of yes-men cronies -- and his huge leftwing backers at BlackRock and Vanguard -- have Disney all to themselves, and don't have to fear any hostile takeovers and do not have to accede to any demand to put directors on the board who will actually stand up for the shareholders.

It's all Iger's show now.

Gird your loins, Disney shareholders.

Disney had of course jumped in to invest in the dying, woke zombie show Doctor Who. It was on the verge of cancellation after three terrible seasons of the Woke Female Doctor, Doctor Karen.

Disney told the showrunners to shoot for the moon and make it even woker and gayer.

They did. And now it's on the verge of cancellation.

Probably forever, this time. There is no longer a large fandom with good memories of Doctor Who. There will be no mass letter-writing campaigns to pressure the BBC to give it another chance.

And so another former billion-dollar IP burns on the Bonfire of the Woke Vanities.

A new report has cast doubt on the future of Disney's lucrative deal Doctor Who with the BBC.
In 2022, Disney bought the international distribution rights to Doctor Who, in a deal which considerably boosted the production budget for the recent 14th season.
At the time the deal was announced, the BBC's chief content officer Charlotte Moore said: "Joining forces with Disney will elevate the show to even greater heights and reach new audiences so it's an extremely exciting time for fans in the UK and across the world."
However, a new report by US trade outlet Deadline has claimed that the future of the deal is uncertain.
The outlet notes that Doctor Who did not feature at Disney's "upfronts" presentation at the North Javits Center in May, where the company showcases its biggest forthcoming shows.
In the piece, a "source close to the production" is quoted as saying they "feel its future hangs in the balance already".
...
The report also describes the audience ratings surrounding the latest series as being "complex".
On average, the latest season of Doctor Who drew in almost 1.5 million fewer viewers per episode (over seven days) than the final series starring the previous Doctor, Jodie Whittaker.

What's so "complex"? The show lost even more viewers from the little-watched Doctor Karen period. It's a stone-cold failure.

...
Another industry source is quote as saying: "The ratings are a problem. They can talk all they like about young viewers but they're still down from the specials and down from the Jodie [Whittaker] series. I imagine serious conversations are happening. Disney will want to see results."

Maybe Disney is already seeing the results they wanted -- they got the first black gay doctor. That's all they really wanted.

They don't want to make a profit, they just want to make propaganda.

Disney's other big bomb this year was the woke Lesbian Space Witches show, The Acolyte. It also failed to attract an audience, and lost 90% of its initial audience through its run.

Disney is claiming they haven't decided yet about whether to renew it.

But the showrunner seems to know the writing is on the wall -- she says she needs a "break from Star Wars."

See, it's her decision, you guys! She could have as a season 2 of Lesbian Space Witches if she wanted! But she wants to spend more time with her Indigo Girls albums!

126 Trump suing the "Harris" campaign

The complaint argues that if "Kamala Harris were a candidate for something in 2024, federal law requires her to have filed a Statement of Candidacy and for her name to have appeared in the name of her authorized committee. But Kamala Harris’s name does not appear in the name of her purported authorized committee, ‘Biden for President,’ and, until Sunday, no Statement of Candidacy existed for her. Then Sunday, rather than filing her own Statement of Candidacy, she merely altered Joe Biden’s to replace his name with hers. There is no mechanism under the Act for one individual to end another’s federal candidacy by simply amending the other’s Form 2. Moreover, in that purported amended Form 2 Harris designated ‘Biden for President’ as her principal campaign committee and then renamed it. Altering a document submitted to a federal agency is a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1519.3." -Fox News

Make movies with good stories. Drop anything resembling woke crap. NOBODY wants that. Not even a little bit. Not even a smidgeon.

Steven Spielberg himself publicly snubbed her at the Indy5 premier. She was the butt of the joke in an entire South Park episode. All of her peers with whom she interacts know that her career is failure piled on top of failure. They must smirk every time they see her.

You can either keep the stock (or mutual fund it's part of) through the drop, or talk to your investment advisor (where applicable) and find a different fund to invest in.

Investment advisors have an ESG tool that tells you what the wokest-rated mutual fund are. All you have to do is find the ones that have a rating of BB or lower and a good historical rate of return to invest in the not-woke ones.

He said he would pick a woman as a running mate. Whitmer—who is white—was a finalist. But he picked Harris in part b/c he thought she would better help him win.

286 Centuries ago, people thought that health and temperament were the products of a balance or imbalance of four bodily fluids, or humors: blood, phlegm, black bile, and yellow bile. It was believed that a deficiency of yellow bile, (choler), the humor that governed anger, spirit, and courage, would leave a person's liver colorless or white. Someone with this deficiency was white-livered and would be spiritless and a coward.

Lily-livered and white-livered have been used synonymously since the 17th century, but lily-livered became more common in the 19th century, probably because of its alliteration.

They both have several seasons and Christmas Specials and movies.

He has an interesting Hollywood redemption arc. A couple of washed out superhero movies, plus his hot wife Scarlett Johansson dumped him. He was on a path to just being another washed up young has bees/never was.

Deadpool changed everything. That and finding a wife who, this is my personal speculation, believed in him, and was willing to let her career stuff complement and not compete with his own acting career.

He got into a feud with that guy that plays the bartender in Deadpool 1 and 2. They both claim the other is a jackhole. I think it is highly possible they are both jackholes, and stuff just come to a head between them.

Horrible idea, Bret Baier hates Trump.

399 Yep, you got to recognize the gravel pits and refineries that were alien worlds.

I remember there was a comment that Douglas Adams swore he didn't want to film The Hitchhiker's Guide series in a gravel pit, and they wound up filming it in a gravel pit.

401 So send in 25 million trump votes from Bent Neck, PA.
Posted by: Oldcat at July 24, 2024 05:24 PM (eoQWY)

With AI tools and data mining software available today, you could print up a ballot that is a write-in vote for every single citizen of PA.

Force them to count each ballot manually. Force them to live up to their own rules.

402 You would be hard pressed to find a Democrat Propaganda Minister who likes Trump

403 380 My understanding is the show, at least up to the 90's, had a production budget of around zero dollars. The fans enjoyed the writing and acting, not the sets or the special effects.

The show ran originally from the 60s to the 80s.
Very low budget, no doubt. The Brits thought it was part of the charm.

The BBC rebooted the show in the mid-2000s and it became a huge hit again. The budgets increased season to season so by the 10th and 11th Doctors the special effects were as good as any American SciFI show.

I didn’t start watching it until like 2014 on BBC America. It grew on me, but they’ve completely ruined it now. I quit watching a few episodes in of the Lady Doctors tenure. It sucked… so so bad.

404 Don't let FOX News near any Presidential or VP Debates.

They were the most biased and one sided debates.

405 It is NOT enough for Perlmutter and Peltz to dump their shares. They should short Disney into the dirt, a la GameStop.

406 I've never liked Disney shows--even back when they were actually family friendly. And my vacation to Disneyworld a few decades ago was the worst ever. That place sucked donkey dick, and was ridiculously expensive, even back then. Six Flags was/is a much better deal.

407 Alcoholics should be mocked. The people have lost the plot.

Is "Dopey" problematic? Pretty sure jazzmen were smoking pot in the 20's. Clearly this is a drug reference. Cancel him.

408 So . . . no one wants to pressure the BBC (Big Black Cock) of the United Kingdom to give Doctor GayBo McGayBoFace another chance? Such sadzness.

410 I live in Naples, FL. I get 50+ friends and family who fly down to stay a few days and then want to travel a bit around the state. Almost all want to hit Disney World. I kept telling them they are in for a nasty surprise. Not just wait lines. The demographics of a certain people who commit constant violence, vulgar language and so much disgusting behavior. They always send back text videos of the feral people I told them they would experience.

411 I lived in Buena Park California, minutes from Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm. Both were staples of growing up in the 60s and 70s.
When I had kids, I could not wait for them to be old enough to go to the parks and share with them what I had shared with my parents.
My kids got to go to Disneyland, before things started getting woke and wierd. Then, Disney got to be a place snobby white went and used it as bragging rights (as if). That is about the time I began to shy away from the happiest place on earth.
And Disney continued left until I could no longer stomach going to the park. And left and left it went. Until finally, I hear of a bearded man, in a dress, selling dresses at Cinderella's castle.
That is when Disney went from breaking my heart, to disgusting me to my core values. I would love to see Main Street USA again beofre I depart this world, but I will not even consider it until Disney fires EVERY last bearded man in a dress, selling dresses to little girls (and boys?).
Poor Walt. Look what they did to your dream.

412 I always thought Biden performed like an animatronics figure when he talks to camera. A bad one at that.

414 Hi there! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which
blog platform are you using for this site? I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had problems with
hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for
another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

I suppose for now i'll settle for book-marking and adding your RSS feed to my Google account.
I look forward to brand new updates and will talk about this site with my
