Highlights
The presenter is short shares of Walt Disney Co (DIS), stating that there is no reason for DIS to trade at a premium to media peers in a structurally challenged environment. He believes the media network will see pressures over the coming year, and that the movie business will also face challenges to comp on past hits. The presenter believes the multiple on DIS should compress down to trade more in line with comparable media companies at ~10 - 11x, which would mean a significant decline in share price.
