NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 15:25 ET — Market closed Walt Disney shares ended 0.9% lower in the final U.S. trading session of 2025 on Wednesday, before markets shut for New Year’s Day.

Disney stock falls on $10 million YouTube kids-privacy settlement as ‘Zootopia 2’ record fails to lift shares

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 15:30 ET — Regular session The Walt Disney Company’s shares fell on Wednesday after U.S. authorities said the entertainment group agreed to pay a $10 million civil penalty to resolve allegations tied to children’s privacy rules on YouTube.
