It doesn't seem right to pit Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) against Disney (NYSE: DIS) these days. The online retailing giant is at the top of its game, hitting another all-time high on Tuesday. It's the third most valuable company in the country by market cap. The House of Mouse hasn't been as fortunate. A few of its key businesses are currently inoperable, and the stock is trading well below the highs it set just before Thanksgiving of last year.
But the investing decision isn't just about buying the biggest company or the one that's running on all cylinders. The market's already pricing in the known fundamentals. Making the best call for your portfolio often boils down to which company you feel will do a better job of providing positive surprises in the future. Let's take a deeper dive into both companies to see where we're at on Amazon and Disney.
