2024-02-12 10:15:00 ET
You have to go back 12 months -- to Feb. 9, 2023 -- to find the last time Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) shares traded as high as they are right now. A blowout fiscal first quarter on Wednesday afternoon got the stock moving, but as with any entertainment production, there were a lot of helping hands to put on a great show.

It would have to nearly double from here to take out its all-time high set in early 2021. Hitting a fresh 52-week high on Thursday is still important. Let's go over many of the reasons for its overdue breakout.
Let's start with the rearview mirror. It wasn't a perfect quarter for Disney, but a few things did go well for the media giant during the critical holiday quarter.
