The Walt Disney Co market value bounced by more than 4% in pre-market trading on November 9 in the wake of the latest quarterly report. Its share price jumped after a few months of stagnation near pandemic lows when many feared extended subscriber loss. This fear grew stronger on a recent wave of price increases against growing costs related to Hollywood strike and a mixed performance in business returns.  Q3 numbers revealed that there was a moderate contraction in both earnings and total revenues, but earnings fell below expectations.

The negative sentiment on stock markets is widening, as a stormy tide of U.S. Treasury yields near the 5% key waterfront pushed the investing crowd to reconsider its money allocation strategies. Fixed-income assets are gaining an advantage even against mega cap pillars like Apple and Google. As a result, continuous building on tech giants is becoming more risky than it used to be.

The Magnificent Seven, including Apple, Microsoft, Tesla, Nvidia, Amazon, Google-parent Alphabet and Meta, has been responsible for over 50% of all gains in the S&P 500 broad market indicator during the first half of 2023, according to Refinitive data. These mega caps were the most significant components of the rally, which is now fading. And it seems that many investors are trying to take shelter in these assets.  Tesla stocks serve as a good example of this type of attitude.
