MARKET HISTORY
On This Day In 1930…
Walt Disney Studios reorganized as a corporation under the name Walt Disney Productions, a pivotal step that laid the foundation for what would become one of the most influential publicly traded companies in U.S. market history. The incorporation allowed Disney to better raise capital, protect intellectual property, and scale its operations during the early growth of animated film and merchandising. This transition ultimately set the stage for Disney’s eventual public listing and its evolution into a global media and entertainment powerhouse. The company’s market cap was less than $5 million at the time of its IPO, and now has a market cap of $200 billion.
