Disney4648, are you sure that Disney owns Fox news? I thought Fox was part of Rupert Murdoch's empire. I know that Disney owns ABC though.

Disney stock has gone up 60% since its low following 9/11, but it really isn't as impressive as it sounds. It fell to 15.50 back then and it is (finally) up to 24.95, but its high last June was about $35. It still has a lot of potential, I guess. I sure hope it keeps making you money! We DC members are certainly doing our part to help the stock rise.:D

Wow... I knew they bought FOX Family (now ABC Family), but I thought they bought it outright, and I didn't know any of FOX Sports or FOX News was included in the deal.

I am very happy that the stock went up but I am just about even.. but I really don't think I own the stock to make money.. I think I own it so I can tell everyone that I own a piece of Mickey Mouse... :) :) :)

iamagrump, that's exactly why I have been meaning to buy a share of the stock. I wouldn't expect to make money (considering the number of shares I could afford to purchase), but it sure would be fun to own a piece of Disney.:D I just wish that I made my purchase when the stock was priced at $15.50:(

Hey lopo

If you noticed, one of the banners is for oneshare.com. They sell individual shares of stock, nicely framed. They charge you the cost of one share of stock (Disney is currently about $24), plus the charge of the frame and a fee. If you click on the link below, you can buy one share of Disney, and get a free share of a company that they choose for you: Oneshare.com

You can buy the shares without a frame, which saves some money.

Lopo,

Trust me my shares were given to me as a gift from my mom and dad. I have a couple but not because I had the money to buy them. but I think that I might go to the site Mickey suggested and see what they have.

I was watching Fox News a few days ago after school and I noticed that they were talking about a company called : Vivendi Universal. The font of the logo was the same as the "Universal Orlando Font" and does any one know if this is the company that owns Universal and IOA?



thanks

Vivendi is US/IOA's parent company.
