DIS is a globally known international family entertainment and media enterprise. It owns and operates television and radio production, distribution, broadcasting, direct-to-consumer services, amusement parks, and hotels, as well as the ESPN sports network and related entities. DIS recently announced a new theme park in Abu Dhabi as well as an ad partnership with Amazon that aims to revolutionize ad targeting in the streaming age.

Financially, DIS’s second-quarter fiscal 2025 report reflected a 20% increase in adjusted per-share earnings from a year prior as well as a 32% jump in the key 18 to 49 demographic for ESPN prime time viewership. The company also owns the number one movie globally right now (Marvel’s Thunderbolts).

It’s no wonder DIS shares are up nearly 16% in a year – and they could rise more. MoneyFlows data shows how Big Money investors are betting heavily on the forward picture of the stock.
