Updated 5:05 p.m.: After an initial 3% move higher, Walt Disney (NYSEIS) shares turned slightly lower in after-hours trading following fiscal second-quarter earnings where the company missed profit and sales expectations, but posted better-than-expected growth from its Disney+ streaming service.

The stock had fallen to a new 52-week low of $104.79 a share during the regular market session, but is bounced back in after-hours trading action.

For the quarter, Disney (DIS) said revenue rose 23% from a year ago, to $19.25 billion. However, that total fell short of analysts' consensus estimates of $20.04 billion in sales.

Earnings, excluding one-time items, rose to $1.08 a share, from 79 cents a share a year ago. Net earnings fell to 26 cents a share from 50 cents a share in the first quarter of 2021.

Disney+ grew faster than expected in terms of viewers, though, adding about 8 million subscribers to reach 137.7 million, above expectations for 134.4 million.

ESPN+ rose to 22.3 million subscribers, compared to expectations of 22.5 million subscribers, while Hulu subscribers hit 45.6 million, or 1 million shy of forecasts. Hulu Plus Live TV reported 4.1 million subscribers compared to expectations of 4.4 million subscribers.

Altogether, Disney (DIS) streaming services now have a total of 205 direct-to-consumer subscribers, bringing it closer to Netflix's 221 million.

Revenue from Disney Parks, Experiences and Products rose 109.6%, to $6.7 billion, Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution revenue reached $13.6 billion, up 9% from a year ago.

With regards to operating income, Disney Parks, Experiences and Products had a profit of $1.76 billion, compared to a year-ago loss of $406 million loss. Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution saw it operating profit fall 32%, to $1.94 billion, down 32% from a year
They took a beating during the pandemic but this report they are down 1 %

Liberalis are starting to lose steam. The it's ok to teach kids about changing their sex BS in school is getting destroyed by parents. CRT which is BS is also losing steam. Liberal based BS at the theaters and TV is watched by no one.

Americans are fed up with their bullshit.

LMAO. Liberal Democrats and Republicans are literally getting their asses kicked in the primaries. My faith in the people of America is getting restored. Even a conservative Latina was voted in, in Texas, which was a strong hold for liberal democrats for 100 fucking years. I know that November will decide who actually wins, but the fact is, Liberals are going to be fucked. 75% of everyone in Wyoming hates Liz Cheney, she will be gone in Nov. for sure, as she should be. Now if we can just figure out a way to get the other swamp rats like Pelosi, Shumer, Nadler, etc.... out of office, maybe we can turn this shit around.

1. CRT is a college level study, and the only way it gets any traction in the public schools is because the local school board allows it.

2. Its a THEORY. In this case, about how inequalities can allow one group of people to use money and politics (one sided governance) to limit the opportunities of other groups.

The concept was proposed to create a conversation about how different groups interact and treat each other. An educational theoretical exercise. Needless to say, its been made political.

Ideally, this type of study is a social experiment, which means its open ended and has a shit ton of variables, so results are subject to interpretation. One of the major causes of inequalities, an easily measured variable is…………………………..MONEY. Yeah, No shit.

Its a tough conversation to have. It cant be a blame game. And it needs to be about the future, not the past. What can be done now, to move our society forward so everyone has an chance to improve their themselves and their children's opportunity.

It is the concept of this nation:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

I think you hit the nail on the head. It has more to do with those who have money and those who do not. Like you said, the founding principles are liberty and opportunity. For decades, opportunity was denied to blacks. Dwelling on this without looking to the future instead of the past will get us (and blacks) nowhere.

What is the solution? I really do not know. Poor people usually are in the doom loop where they have no idea how to get out of poverty because the upbringing was not there like it was for those who are not in poverty. Until we figure out how to stop the loop (which I think is impossible) we cannot fix poverty and inequality.

Better schools for the inner city and poor rural areas. That means paying the best money to outstanding educators. Make a commitment to provide the best instruction to the most challenged. Superintendents and principals get the best pay and spend the least amount of time with students. A CPA can do most of the BS paperwork, and money counting. Pay the people who are fighting the 3 meter war of education what they are worth, hire a money guy to do the budget

On a similar note, until we can fix elementary schools in the worst areas, there is no need to even consider the high schools. Too many arrive at high school without the basics of reading and Math, and therefore have no chance at the higher levels. Social promotion needs to hit the road!
