I mean, can't the federal government make it illegal to not take this vaccine due to the circumstances at hand? I know the answer is probably yes and "it depends who is president next year".I'm not quite so optimistic. Vaccine might be approved by early 2021, but It could only have a slightly better than 50% efficacy, regular folks probably won't even have it available to them until end of 2021 (as high risk or high exposure people will get it first) and then there's the number of people who will refuse to take it (which polls show it's as high as 30% of people who won't even take it right away).
If I had to wager, won't be until at least some time in 2022 until things will be back to some form of "normal".
On the postive side for Disney, ESPN is thriving now with practically too many sports to show at once and the parks are at least going to have operated for the whole quarter by the time the next quarter comes around. They also have a ton of movies to still release, it's just about when and how (theaters or VOD) they come out. The cruise business is their only sector still basically 100% stagnant. Of course filming for TV shows is rough right now, which is going to hurt ABC and Disney+'s fall lineup.Disney missed Revenue estimates. Revenue came in at $11.78 billion vs. analysts estimate of $12.37 Billion.

The feds couldn't make it mandatory to get the shot but they can withhold services such as schools, DL, vehicle registration etc and it would hurt more not to get it. Kinda like the way childhood vaccination is done today.I mean, can't the federal government make it illegal to not take this vaccine due to the circumstances at hand?

Would "schools" include home schooling though? Because that's what a lot of people are going to be doing for the foreseeable future, anyway.The feds couldn't make it mandatory to get the shot but they can withhold services such as schools, DL, vehicle registration etc and it would hurt more not to get it.

Stock rises because people want to buy low-ish. They know eventually the company is going to bounce back, meaning this report is an outlier and things can only get better.Disney We aren't making as much money as before and have no way to really make money off our movies like before or theme parks...stocks rise
lol
What i joke, Stocks makes no sense Disney will not be making what it used to for over a year from now...why in god's name is the stock rising from this news?
If they announced ways they were going to make money off the movies they made already (not just mulan) and said we have Holiday theme park plans then sure but they don't no clue how anyone things this stock is worth buying today
The Company for the next quarter will sill be way down and an election is coming up...to me I would have no reason to buy it now. The leadership seems to have no real idea's to how to make money during this time. Though I guess if all it takes is beings company that years from now should turn a profit then I guess why do anything?Stock rises because people want to buy low-ish.

It's not a quarter to quarter investment, it's about the long term.The Company for the next quarter will sill be way down and an election is coming up...to me I would have no reason to buy it now.

Sure, but we have noooooo idea when they will be back to making record profits again.It's not a quarter to quarter investment, it's about the long term.
Exactly this - the doomers were calling for heavy negative EPS. The fact that they managed to come out positive is a very good sign. I bought what I could a few weeks ago and made a few dollars today.They also did far better then many thought. Many are buying because it wasn’t as bad as many said it would be.
tbh, the smart idea was to invest in Disney when they were down to $85/share.Sure, but we have noooooo idea when they will be back to making record profits again.
To me makes no sense, Amazon makes sense they are making hand over fist cash...Disney they aren't able to build new rides, hold events, put people on cruises, let people see movies that make them billions of dollars then buy merchandise of said movie. Also besides Mando they have nothing really filmed, so while yes next year might see a good amount of content they have are going to have some weaker years film wise coming up.
I would not invest in them now, but if people here think its a good idea go for it.
No, schools get funds based on student days. If fed funds are used to provide service they could be withheld unless you can provide proof of vaccination. Might go to the 9 but I think they would be on firm ground in a declared emergency. It may never be 100% but if we get 70% that may be enough like measles vaccinations.Would "schools" include home schooling though?
