3 Dates for Disney Investors to Circle in August, Including a Big Financial Update
Key Points Disney shares have risen 25% over the past year, well ahead of all of the market averages. The media giant reports fiscal third-quarter results on Wednesday. Analysts see low single-digit growth on both ends of the income statement. Disney has scored big at the box office in recent months by revisiting successful franchises. It's doing so again later this week. 10 stocks we like better than Walt Disney › Shares of Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) proved mortal last month, sliding 4% in July after hitting a new 52-week highs in each of the last three trading days in June. Can Disney get its groove back this summer? There will be plenty of potentially stock-moving moments in August. From a telltale financial update to an annual fan event, there are a few dates that Disney investors will want to keep an eye on in the month ahead. Let's take a closer look. Aug. 6 Disney will announce its fiscal third-quarter results on Wednesday morning. There's a lot riding on the fresh numbers, even if Wall Street pros aren't holding out for much. Analysts see revenue clocking in at $23.76 billion for the three months ending in June, less than 3% higher than where Disney landed a year earlier. The profit target is only marginally higher. The consensus estimate calls for Disney to earn $1.45 a share, a 4% increase. Now that Disney's streaming business has been profitable for more than a year, the year-over-year comparisons might not be as impressive. Thankfully, recent history is on the side of the bulls. Check out how Disney's bottom line has turned out over the past year relative to market expectations. Quarter EPS (estimate) EPS (actual) Surprise Q3 2024 $1.19 $1.39 16% Q4 2024 $1.11 $1.14 3% Q1 2025 $1.43 $1.76 23% Q2 2025 $1.21 $1.45 20% Data source: Yahoo! Finance. Disney has topped analyst projections every single time over the past year. The pixie dust on top is that three of those surprises have been double-digit percentage beats. The last two reports saw the House of Mouse exceeding forecasts by at least 20%. There might be reasons to be concerned this time around, though. Comcast, Disney's biggest attractions rival opened a brand new theme park in May, minutes from Disney World. Meanwhile, Disney's Lilo & Stitch live-action reboot became the first U.S. film to top $1 billion in worldwide receipts this year during the quarter, but Inside Out 2 fared even better as last year's biggest fiscal third-quarter release. The impact of a softening economy and trade war implications can also eat into Disney's results. However, until Disney shows signs of softening, investors can look to the stock's recent performance: Its 25% jump over the past year is almost double the market average. Aug. 8 Disney has been on top of the domestic box office the past two weekends with The Fantastic Four: First Steps. It's hoping to stay there next weekend. But if the well-reviewed Marvel entry can't score a three-peat, there's a good chance the crown can go to another Disney franchise, as Freakier Friday opens on Friday. The new films brings back Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan from the initial reboot that became a sleeper hit and cult classic 22 years ago. The new story goes one more notch up the family tree, and the same might happen for the film's chances as well. Freakier Friday should draw fans of the 2003 reboot as well as a potentially new younger audience. After a slow start at the local multiplex in 2025 with a few notable disappointments, Disney seems to be back in sync with moviegoers. Aug. 29 The biennial Destination D23 event comes to Disney World in the final weekend of the month. The three-day event isn't as prolific as last year's D23 Expo that takes place every other year, but it's a place for Disney fans to gather and catch presentations about the past and present, and, more importantly, to get glimpses of the future of the entertainment giant. This year's Destination D23 won't have the same fireworks that Disney fired off at last year's D23 Expo in Anaheim. Several new attractions and expansion plans were announced across its theme parks last summer. There could be some more details or fine tuning of timelines offered, but this will mostly serve as a way to get its fan base excited about the future of its content releases, theme park upgrades, and more. If you want to quantify the fervor of the Disney community, keep in mind that tickets for this three-day event start at $299 a person, going all the way up to $799. Oh, and the event has been sold out for weeks now. If you won't be there, you can be sure that social media, popular blogs, and even financial journos like Yours Truly will be around to keep you updated on anything notable that takes place.

Meet Ultra Skelly, the High-Tech Version of Home Depot's Viral Skeleton
The new 6'5'' version of Home Depot's viral skeleton has digital eyeballs, audio options, and a motion sensor. It's available to buy starting today. All products featured on WIRED are independently selected by our editors. However, we may receive compensation from retailers and/or from purchases of products through these links. I know you've seen Skelly at some point in the past five years. Maybe it was driving around your neighborhood during Halloween, or on a viral post about Halloween decorations. Maybe both! Maybe it's in your friend's yard year-round, wearing a Santa hat for Christmas and rocking 2025 glasses with a bottle of champagne for the new year. (Maybe that's just my friend's yard.) The popular 12-foot skeleton, aptly named Skelly, has become a Halloween classic (and a permanent yard mainstay for the Halloween elite) since it launched in 2020. This year, Home Depot is launching a few new items in its Halloween collection, including a brand-new, tech-powered Ultra Skelly ($279). Ultra Skelly is the souped-up tech edition of original Skelly, with customizable ribcage lights and eyes, four movements it can perform, preset and custom audio recordings it can repeat, a live audio option, and a motion sensor to activate it. It's shorter than the 12-foot icon, but 6 1/2 feet is nothing to scoff at, either. That just means Ultra Skelly can fit next to your front door and jump-scare your trick-or-treaters. Ultra Fun On the visual side, there's a light built into Ultra Skelly's mouth and chest, both of which have a full spectrum of color you can choose from in the newly revamped DecorPro SVI app (Android and iOs), which Home Depot launched last week. The most fun visual, though, is Skelly's new LCD eyes, which feature 18 different styles to choose from. There are options for both Halloween and holidays beyond, from skull and red human eyes to hearts, snowflakes, and birthday confetti. There are also a handful of non-holiday options, like blue, green, and brown eyes. As for the audio and animatronics, Ultra Skelly has four movements with its head, mouth, arm, and torso that you can control. This high-tech skeleton also comes with five preset audio recordings and the ability to record up to 30 seconds of your own audio, which you can manipulate with eerie voice modulation. There's a live audio mode too, if you wanted to speak through Ultra Skelly while sitting out of sight. The DecorPro SVI app works with Bluetooth, so you'll need to be within range to customize Ultra Skelly and use live audio. Ultra Skelly doesn't connect to Wi-Fi, so it's not technically smart, but it still packs plenty of futuristic fun for the holidays. Beyond Ultra Ultra Skelly isn't the only new addition to the skeleton family. There's a new version of Skelly's best friend: a 5-foot Sitting Skelly's Dog ($249) that will also have customizable eyes. The 7-foot standing version ($199) of the dog is back as well. This year, cat people will also be recognized with a new 5-foot Skelly's Cat ($199). The original 12-foot Skelly ($299) will return, and after a year of price raises across markets, it's nice to see it has actually stayed the same price. This regular Skelly also has customizable LCD eyes, albeit with only eight options. Ultra Skelly ($279) is actually the cheaper of the two Skelly options, even with all its cool features, but it is nearly half the size. All of these are available today on Home Depot's website and in the Home Depot app, along with the rest of Home Depot's Halloween collections. If you're looking for something else fun, don't miss the 15-foot haunted scarecrow ($399), 8-foot animated Wyvern ($399), and so much more. Happy Halloween, my fellow spooky friends.

Chappell Roan on 'The Subway,' Writing Through Heartbreak, and Loving Her Job Again
The triumph of Roan's Grammy-winning debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, has prompted much speculation about its follow-up, with fans scrutinizing her recent fixation on dragons, knights, and other medieval motifs and noting how the lyric video for 'The Giver' features a DVD menu that scrolls past tracks called 'To Be Yours' and 'Read & Make Out.' But 'the second project doesn't exist yet,' Roan clarifies. 'There is no album. There is no collection of songs.' She goes on: 'It took me five years to write the first one, and it's probably going to take at least five to write the next. I'm not that type of writer that can pump it out.' Nor does Roan see any creative value in churning out music under pressure. 'I don't think I make good music whenever I force myself to do anything,' she says. 'I see some comments sometimes, like, 'She's everywhere except that damn studio.' Even if I was in the studio 12 hours a day, every single day, that does not mean that you would get an album any faster.' And on that note: These days, Roan only goes on Instagram to post before swiftly deleting the app from her phone again. 'Socials harm the fuck out of me and my art,' she says. 'I'm not doing that to myself anymore.' She's excited to see how her project will develop without the internet's influence. 'I've never written an album where I don't have Instagram or anything,' she says. 'The album process is purely, only mine. No one on TikTok gets to see it.'
