Why Disney Shares Are Sliding Today

The Walt Disney Co DIS is trading lower Monday morning after Barclays analyst Kannan Venkateshwar downgraded the stock from an Overweight rating to an Equal-Weight rating and lowered the price target from $210 to $175.

The Barclays analyst cited the slowing growth of Disney+ as a reason for the downgrade. Venkateshwar believes it will be tough for Disney to meet its longer-term streaming subscription guidance.

The Barclays analyst warned of meaningful downside risk from current levels.

MoffettNathanson has a Neutral rating with $180 price target on The Walt Disney Co. Michael Nathanson warned of slowing growth for Disney+, while speaking on CNBC Monday morning.
