Fox Corp-A Stock Discussion

Despite a drop in share price and EPS, shareholders appear confident in the company's long-term prospects. However, the company's 5-year performance has led to a 2% annual loss for shareholders. Investors are advised to consider the company's business performance and market conditions before investing.

Analysts view the joint venture as a positive for Fox, lessening its exposure to Pay TV ecosystem pressures. Despite lukewarm stock reaction to the JV news, they see a good entry point at current valuations, suggesting the market might underestimate the JV's potential impact.

Despite Fox's higher forecast growth, it trades at a lower P/E, indicating skepticism among shareholders. Unobserved threats to earnings may be preventing the P/E ratio from matching the positive outlook, suggesting anticipated earnings instability.

Murdoch and Ciongoli have expressed enthusiasm over the appointment, with Murdoch highlighting Ciongoli's legal experience as an asset, while Ciongoli displayed eagerness to contribute to Fox's continued success in the dynamic media industry.
