MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Walt Disney
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in The Walt Disney Company for these reasons:

  • The company slightly missed revenue expectations for the last quarter, reporting $25.25 billion against an estimate of $25.39 billion, which may raise concerns about future growth.
  • Despite a positive outlook, the current debt-to-equity ratio of 0.33 indicates that the company has a moderate level of debt, which could pose risks in a rising interest rate environment.
  • International tourism remains weak, which could impact revenue from parks and experiences, especially as global travel dynamics continue to evolve.
  • While the stock has shown resilience, the price-to-earnings ratio of 16.28 suggests that the stock may be overvalued compared to historical averages, which could deter some investors.
  • There is ongoing competition in the streaming market, which could affect Disney's market share and profitability in its Disney+ service, especially with the introduction of ad-supported models by competitors.
