$DIS Hits Another New 52-Week Low

Just over a week after The Walt Disney Company’s stock ($DIS) closed at a nearly nine-year low, the stock tumbled again this morning, reaching another new 52-week low.

What’s Happening:

  • Today, September 1st, $DIS fell to another new intra-trading day 52-week low of $80.53.
  • That’s nearly $2 lower than the $82.47 it closed at on August 23rd — which marked its worst closing price since 2014.
  • The stock ended up closing at $81.64, which is the worst close since May 2014.
  • Meanwhile, Disney’s 52-week high stands at $118.18.
