As a DIS shareholder, I could not agree with you more.

Partnership of some kind, maybe, but outright purchase would be out of the question, IMO.

Regards,

I agree that Dis is not going to be sold,but Aol does have a market
cap of 79.5 billion compared to Dis of 68.9 billion.Yahoo by the
way has a market cap of 35.3 billion.You just can not predict what
kind of deals are on the table,I never thought Dis would buy ABC!,
and they probably wish they had not.

Neither AOL or YHOO has that kind of cash, and do you really think that DIS shareholders would accept hyperinflated stock (AOL or YHOO) as currency in return for their shares of DIS? Absolutely, no .....

Tech, I fully agree with you. I have owned Dis since 1972. I don't
think I like to have my shares purchased and paid for with AOL
or even worse, YAHOO((!!!!!!!??) shares. Now, if they pay me a premium of 30 to 40 percent, I accept the money and will go to a greener pasture.
