Apparently, Disney is looking to buy into Twenty-First Century Fox.

I'm always leery of announcements of more concentration in an industry, especially at this level... but this could be what Fox needs to stay relevant in the coming decades.

Yeah, I was thinking much the same thing.

But more and more I wish I'd not listened to that broker back in the 70s when he told me not to invest the thousand my Dad gave me to learn the marked in Disney, because it was... oh, what did he call it? A vanity stock? A glamour stock? Whatever. That thousand... well, it wouldn't have become a fortune, but it would still be quite a bit now.
