The company has out-earned rival film studios and may well be poised to crush Netflix.<\/em><\/strong><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Disney&#8217;s\u00a0<em>Avengers: Endgame<\/em>\u00a0ruled the box office\u00a0this weekend, torching all-time single-day, weekend and per-screen records on its way to well over $1 billion in global ticket sales. It was just the latest victory for Disney, which has boasted\u00a0the No. 1 grossing movie every year since 2012 and been the top grossing film\u00a0studio since 2016.<\/p>\n<p>The big picture:\u00a0Disney is on pace to take a 29.1% share of box office receipts in 2019, the largest percentage on record, according to data\u00a0from Nash Information Services.<\/p>\n<p>Some highlights of Disney&#8217;s success:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Since 1995, Disney movies have generated $36.9 billion in domestic box office revenue and accounted for 16.4% of total market share among movie studios.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To put that into perspective, Disney&#8217;s releases have earned more than the lowest four of the world&#8217;s top 10 movie studios combined during that time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Disney&#8217;s films have earned almost $2.5 billion more than No. 2 ranked Warner Bros., despite releasing 200 fewer movies. They have also out-earned No. 3 studio Sony by more than $9.5 billion, despite\u00a0releasing nearly 150 fewer films.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Why it matters to the market:\u00a0Disney&#8217;s stock has risen by around 30% so far this year, driven by a 10% gain after unveiling details of its\u00a0new $6.99 per month Disney+ streaming service in April.<\/p>\n<p>Wall Street is bullish on Disney&#8217;s future, with 70% of analysts holding a &#8220;buy&#8221; rating. While\u00a0investors have not necessarily soured on Netflix,\u00a0it&#8217;s clear that they view Disney as a major threat to the giant.<\/p>\n<p>Netflix stock has gained close to 40% this year, but has seen pullbacks coinciding with recent big gains from its rival.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore,\u00a0Disney&#8217;s box office cash grab may just be getting started. This year will also see the release of blockbusters such as\u00a0<em>Toy Story 4<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Frozen 2<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Spiderman: Far from Home<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Aladdin<\/em>,\u00a0<em>The Lion King,<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Star Wars: The Last Skywalker,<\/em>\u00a0to name just a few.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Disney&#8217;s stock has risen by around 30% already\u00a0this year.
