Disney results:
Last week's big story was about tech, starting with Disney, a stock recommended here back in September at ±$80.
- Key financials: Linear networks revenue up 9%, Direct-to-consumer up 12%, Parks up 16%
- Direct-to-consumer still incurred a loss of $400 million
- Consumer products, content sales licensing, and ESPN performance discussed
- Overall, not a knockout result but not terrible; I remain a satisfied shareholder
Big move in streaming sports! ⚾️🏀🏈 Disney, Warner Bros., and Fox are joining forces to create the ultimate sports streaming app, merging ESPN, TNT, and Fox Sports (WSJ). ESPN alone was 18% of Disney's latest quarter revenue.$DIS $FOX $WBD pic.twitter.com/xSPBko0cMO

- Other segments discussed, including Reality Labs (MetaQuest)
- Net profit $14 billion, up 35%; stock surged 20%
- Mark Zuckerberg's dividend income from the declared 50-cent dividend discussed
- Positive sentiments about Meta's performance, particularly in comparison to other tech giants
- Canal+ made an offer for MultiChoice at 105 Rand per share
- Market reaction, initial excitement, and stock movement
- Simon's caution about potential risks and timing of the deal
- MultiChoice's response: Board concluded the offer significantly undervalues the group
- Canal+ continued to buy MultiChoice shares, now owning 35.1%
- Discussion on the mandatory offer threshold and potential scenarios
- Regulatory considerations: Foreign ownership rules and competition commissions
- The price of the mandatory offer must be equal to; (i) identical to, or where appropriate, similar to the highest consideration paid by the bidder for those acquisitions and (ii) accompanied by a cash consideration, at not less than the highest cash consideration paid if the shares that carry 5% or more of the voting rights were acquired for cash.
- Simon's conclusion: Canal+ likely to succeed, potential challenges, and market dynamics
