Dow Jones News: Disney+ Attracts 10 Million Users; Apple Snags a Buy Rating
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) had eked out a 0.1% gain by 2:10 p.m. EST Wednesday, largely thanks to Disney (NYSE: DIS). One day after the launch of the Disney+ streaming service, Disney announced a massive haul of initial sign-ups.
Also up on Wednesday was Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), which received some positive analyst coverage and announced a new MacBook Pro.
Despite some technical issues during Tuesday's launch, Disney announced on Wednesday that its Disney+ streaming service had already attracted 10 million sign-ups. Disney offers users a 7-day free trial, so a sign-up isn't the same thing as a paying customer. But the huge tally is an indication that demand for Disney's content is strong.
