DISNEY SURPRISES Wall Street: Shocking Profits Leave Investors Hopeful

11 May 2025 — Disney’s latest earnings report blew past Wall Street’s predictions. Revenue hit $23.62 billion for the second quarter, up 7% from last year. Earnings per share jumped 20% to $1.45, showing Disney is still a powerhouse.

The company says strong theme park crowds and steady growth in its streaming business drove these results. Disney now aims for about $875 million in streaming profits next year — showing confidence even as the economy stays shaky.

There was little other financial news today besides Disney’s big reveal and regular market updates. As of May 10, 2025, things are quiet on the financial front.

DISNEY PROFITS Surge: Americans Flock to Parks Despite Hard Times

11 May 2025 — Disney posted a strong quarter, beating Wall Street’s expectations with $23.62 billion in revenue — a 7% jump from last year. Earnings per share rose 20% to $1.45, well above the predicted $1.20.

The company credits its U.S. theme parks for most of this growth. Even as families face higher prices and tough economic times, they keep visiting and spending at Disney parks. The streaming services also helped, with profits expected to hit $875 million in fiscal 2025.

Internationally, park attendance is steady but visitors are spending less — especially in China. Disney just announced its first Middle East resort in Abu Dhabi through a deal with Miral, showing CEO Bob Iger’s push for global growth and new ideas.

These results show Disney can still succeed when many American families are struggling — mainly because people keep coming back for the experiences at home and online that only Disney offers.;

FED’S Bold Move Stuns Wall Street: Trump’S Trade Fight Ignites Fear And Hope

08 May 2025 — Wall Street took a wild ride after the FEDERAL RESERVE made its latest move and President Trump doubled down on tariffs. Investors were left uneasy. Goldman Sachs warned the S&P 500 could drop even more if trade fights get worse. UBS also lowered its forecast, showing growing worry about where things are headed.

The S&P 500’s longest winning streak in twenty years came to an end as traders feared new tariffs could hurt economic growth and profits. Some industries, like media and film, are especially nervous about possible tariffs on foreign movies, which has sparked debate over American jobs and creative freedom.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent tried to calm everyone down by saying Trump’s policies — tariffs, tax cuts, and cutting red tape — are meant to help America in the long run, even if things feel shaky now. The White House says these steps will make U.S. businesses stronger against unfair competition from other countries.

As markets react to these changes, people are split on whether tough trade rules will help or hurt in the end. Many conservatives believe Trump is finally standing up for American workers who have been ignored for too long by global deals that put them last.;

UPS STOCKS Plummet: Amazon Partnership Slashed, Investors Shocked

31 January 2025 — United Parcel Service Inc. (UPS) shares have dropped sharply after announcing a major cut in its business dealings with Amazon.com Inc. UPS plans to reduce its low-margin Amazon business by half, surprising analysts and impacting the company’s revenue projections. Daniel Imbro from Stephens Inc. noted the unexpected nature of this rapid shift in strategy.

The company has projected $89 billion in revenue for 2025, falling short of analysts’ expectations of $94.9 billion, following a reported $91.1 billion for 2024. UPS is focusing on higher-margin sectors like healthcare, aiming for $20 billion in revenue from this segment by 2026 as it raises prices and implements surcharges to offset losses from Amazon’s reduced contribution.

Amazon accounted for 11.8% of UPS’s revenue last year, making the decision to slash this partnership significant amid weak demand recovery for parcel services this year. This strategic pivot highlights UPS’s efforts to stabilize its financial outlook by prioritizing more profitable ventures over volume-driven partnerships with lower margins like Amazon’s delivery services.;
