Broken out above
Price has closed above the channel. The fitted trend may no longer describe this stock.
Read from the last 18 months of history we hold: falling, drifting −8% a year. Price is above both fitted ceilings, so there is no line overhead to break — and no fitted resistance to price the target against either. What would overturn this: a close below US$79.55 — the floor of the channel being read — after which the trend, not the entry, is what was wrong.

About The Walt Disney Company

Its vast array of activities is organized into two primary divisions: Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution, and Disney Parks, Experiences and Products. Within its media and entertainment arm, Disney is actively engaged in developing and distributing both cinematic films and television series. This segment encompasses the management of well-known broadcast networks such as ABC, Disney, ESPN, Freeform, FX, Fox, National Geographic, and Star, as well as renowned film studios responsible for productions under banners like Walt Disney Pictures, Twentieth Century Studios, Marvel, Lucasfilm, Pixar, and Searchlight Pictures. The company also delivers content directly to consumers through its popular streaming platforms, including Disney+, Disney+ Hotstar, ESPN+, Hulu, and Star+. Further activities involve licensing its film and television content to external broadcasters and subscription video-on-demand services, overseeing theatrical releases, home entertainment distribution, and music distribution, staging and licensing live entertainment spectacles, and offering specialized post-production services via Industrial Light & Magic and Skywalker Sound.
