Disney’s stock has significantly declined, falling from a high of $123 per share in April to just $90 per share currently.
This drop follows the company’s controversial shift towards more politically charged content, which critics argue has alienated audiences and harmed its traditional family-friendly image.
Former Marvel Entertainment chairman Ike Perlmutter, a major Disney stakeholder and critic of the company’s direction, recently sold his entire stake valued at approximately $3 billion, anticipating further stock declines.
He has indicated that he may repurchase shares if the price falls to $65-$75. Despite the overall downturn, Pixar’s “Inside Out 2” has performed well at the box office, standing out as a non-political Disney release.
Perlmutter’s discontent with Disney’s recent strategy reflects a broader dissatisfaction among investors regarding the company’s focus on social issues over traditional content.
