Flashback:

In a note to a reader, not-ready-for-prime-time:

Everyone expected Bob Iger’s magic to turn the Magic Kingdom around. 
Instead, he does what all struggling companies do: cut costs (cancel projects and fire employees) and raise prices. 
No magic bullets. No big deals. No out-of-the-box thinking. No imagination from the darling of Wall Street. 
DIS+ continues to fall and loses subscribers. 
Shares: one year — 22% loss, though DIS is up 2% today.
