Disney: Better, but not best

2024-11-20T21:51:24+02:00

Disney is looking healthier these days and the share price has responded positively. Aside from improvements in streaming, they've had two major box office hits in 2024 - is this the dawn of a new creative era at Disney, or will the old mistakes slip back in?

Disney: Proxy Wars

2024-04-10T10:46:52+02:00

Despite boasting 17 consecutive years of dividend increases, Emera has been an underperformer on the market relative to a peer like Next Era Energy, which we recently covered here on Magic Markets Premium. As we continue to operate in an environment of higher rates and a focus on yields, does Emera offer compelling value, or is this more likely to be a value trap?

As the earnings season in the US draws to a close, it's the perfect moment to reflect on two unrelated but undeniably interesting companies that have been on our radar. The ever-evolving nature of the markets teaches us that what made sense a year ago can be dramatically different today. In this week’s episode of Magic Markets, we’re diving into Disney and Yum! Brands to see how they've fared since our last discussion.

Magic Markets Ep123: Growth, Value and Five-Year Fun

2023-05-03T18:05:48+02:00

Growth vs. value is one of the most stereotypical debates in the market. There’s so much to learn from these two approaches, so we used the opportunity this week to discuss this topic and look at some of the core differences. This included real-world examples of various companies that we have covered in Magic Markets Premium as well.

Magic Markets Ep68: Burgers and fairy tales

2022-03-27T14:03:30+02:00

Burgers and fairy tales. These are the things that people like to invest in. No, really. In this episode of Magic Markets, we take a step back and discuss two investment themes that we find interesting. The first is the quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry, which commands premium valuations in markets across the world. There are global giants and regional powerhouses, with examples on the JSE as well as in international markets. We discuss the different types of models followed, along with concepts like franchise vs. corporate-owned models and the benefits of each strategy. We then move on to the art of [...]

In addition to Mickey, Goofy, Donald and a host of other timeless characters ranging from lions to genies, Disney owns Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars, ESPN, ABC, Fox and National Geographic. This makes Disney a multi-faceted business that had significant winners and losers through the pandemic. In addition to the incredible [...]
