Portfolio Pulse from Chris Katje
The Walt Disney Company's (NYSE:DIS) stock performance has been impacted by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's actions and policies. DeSantis revoked Disney's autonomous privileges over its Orlando, Florida region and enacted a bill removing Disney's unique authorities. This has led to a series of lawsuits. An investment of $1,000 in Disney stock when DeSantis took office in 2019 would be worth $764.48 today, a decrease of 23.6%. In comparison, a $1,000 investment in the SPDR S&P 500 Global ETF Trust (NYSE:SPY) would have increased by 85.8% over the same period.
