Priceline.com Inc (PCLN), Marriott International Inc (MAR), The Walt Disney Company (DIS): Leisure Stocks That Will Help You Sleep at Night

Closing remarks

There is no doubt that The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) remains a great buy moving forward based on the fact that all segments of the company (and not just the parks) are just beginning to build momentum. Further upside for the segment can be expected based on the recent acquisition of Lucasfilm and the Star Wars brand, the MyMagic Plus initiative, and plans to build a 963 acre $3.66 billion resort in Shanghai. Groundbreaking was in 2011 with an opening expected in 2016, according to Wikipedia.

On another note, it is great to see that these leisure companies are reporting record business, as it gives a glimpse in to the positive and improving nature of the macro and micro economic environment.
