Better Buy: Disney vs. Hilton
The travel industry is still reeling as the world struggles to recover from the pandemic and the resulting global economic crisis. If you're an investor in Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) or Hilton (NYSE: HLT), room service probably feels more like doom service these days.
Both companies posted brutal financial results last week, with red ink on the bottom line and steep double-digit dives on the top line. Disney and Hilton even suspended their dividend distributions earlier this year, a telltale sign that the new normal isn't going to be easy for either travel bellwether.
Given the recent lackluster performance, it's not a surprise to see both stocks trading lower year to date. Disney is down 9% in 2020; Hilton is checking in with a painful 22% drop. It may be hard to get excited about either investment in this climate, but these are still iconic travel brands that could bounce back sooner than you probably think. With Disney and Hilton both expected to return to profitability later this year, let's take a closer look to see which depressed stock is the better buy right now.
