Why Disney Dragged on the Dow and Peloton Hit the Skids Thursday

Why Disney Dragged on the Dow and Peloton Hit the Skids Thursday

The Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) managed to buck the downward trend with a slight gain, but the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) was the big loser on the day, and the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) also gave up ground. Weighing the most on the Dow was Disney (NYSE: DIS), which fell sharply after reporting its latest financial results. The news for Peloton Interactive (NASDAQ: PTON) was arguably worse, as shareholders had to deal with yet another recall of its connected exercise equipment.
