AMC Entertainment shares hit rock bottom as Disney’s Wish disappoints

  • AMC Entertainment shares have tumbled this year
  • Disney’s latest film, Wish, fell short of expectations at the box office
  • Overall, the movie industry performed better than last year
  • AMC stock is on track for its worst year on record

Shares of AMC Entertainment have taken a hit this year, with the stock down 81% and on track for its worst year on record. The latest blow came from Disney’s film, Wish, which failed to meet expectations at the box office, landing third in the rankings. However, despite this setback, the overall movie industry performed better than last year, with domestic box office sales totaling $172 million over the holiday weekend. While AMC’s meme-stock status has made it more volatile, it will take more than the success of Taylor Swift’s concert movie to turn things around for the struggling theater chain.
