Shortly after the opening bell, we will be selling 150 shares of Disney at roughly $115. Following Wednesday’s trade, Jim Cramer’s Charitable Trust will own 750 shares, decreasing its weighting to about 2.2% from about 2.7%. We’re letting go of some Disney shares ahead of its earnings report on Thursday before the opening bell. We’re also downgrading our rating to a 2. We’re not making a call on the upcoming results, but we would like to have more wiggle room in the position just in case the stock trades down when the numbers come out. Many analysts, in their previews of the quarter, have written positively about Disney ahead of earnings, despite noise around DTC cancellations stemming from the temporary suspension of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” On experiences, there’s been a lot of chatter about a struggling consumer, and yet the price of a Disney vacation has never been more expensive. Finally, we would rather err on the cautious side since management will provide guidance for fiscal year 2026. We anticipate some conservatism because they’ll want to give a forecast they know they’ll beat. From this sale, we will realize a loss of about 22% on stock purchased in February 2022.
