Disney's strength has boosted confidence in the industry among some investors who hope Netflix and others will pick up growth if it considers offering more products, such as ad-supported options, as the inflation frenzy cools. CPI data in July came down from the peak, showing signs of easing.
Some argue that Netflix is a pioneer in the streaming industry, like Tesla in the EV sector, and should have strong momentum compared to its peers.

witty Llama_cin : C
J-Zil : $Netflix (NFLX.US)$ the pioneer
AmcApe1st : C, I’m currently bearish on the whole industry. They’re played out at the moment in my opinion. People are using them a lot less from my observations.
Numapennywell : Disney
70731067 : I won’t give either one a penny
JJ Hou : I have disney shares! Anyway many remarked that disney+ is gd!
71639729 : B, Disney is the best to build position in!
calm Axolotl_5738 : bearish on all streaming services because people seem to using them less, I am... anyways, the main reason imo, that Disney gained almost 200 million subs on 2 years while it took Netflix more than 5x that is bad cally because Disney is in of itself, a library of movies, so it's streaming basically unlocked a way to profit from their already massive collection of movies, stories, etc ... just my two cents.
