Disney has shown excellent progression since the 1920’s putting it as a great buy at anytime. With Mickey Mouse being one of the largest children idols in the world there’s no way Disney could go wrong. Three Classic Fairy Tales is a new on stage show that will grab people’s attention all over the world. Also with C. S. Lewis’s novel series The Chronicles of Narnia starting to take off into an on screen adventure I believe that this will drive Disney ratings through the roof. A few more Disney movies include: High School Musical, Pirates of the Caribbean and National Treasure. With those behind your sails of profit you’ll be on the fast track to wealth. Disney is a fast moving steam ship, constantly expanding on a global scale, and there not running out of steam any time soon. “Today, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts operates or licenses 11 theme parks on three continents, along with 35 resort hotels, two luxury cruise ships and a wide variety of other entertainment offerings” Says Disney. So without further gilding of the lily, Invest and enjoy the magic of Disney!

I agree 100%. Disney is the "Steady-Eddy" of companies that no portfolio should be without. With its entertainment division making family friendly films of high caliber, I see Disney as a boom stock for many years to come.

No stock is a "great buy at any time". Every stock can get run up and overpriced, and market conditions change. The 13% that it's dropped in the past month is evidence of that. Revenues from the theme parks may well soon be evaporating due to travel prices, and those revenues are already priced into the stock. Just because someone makes a great product, doesn't mean it's a great stock buy.
