The last year was a tumultuous year for the US stock market. Every sector, including the otherwise popular, like technology and retail, was battered. So, the entertainment industry also had to go through a similar predicament in the equity market.

The slowing global economy, the Russia-Ukraine war, supply chain woes, high inflation, and the Fed Reserve’s aggressive monetary policies to curb it, affected the stock market adversely.

in 2023, the stock markets have experienced mixed sentiments and in this article, we will be looking at two US entertainment stocks, and see how they have dealt with the market conditions:
