Walt Disney fell 9.8%, on track for its biggest percentage fall since November 2022, as a surprise profit in its streaming entertainment division was eclipsed by a drop in its traditional TV business and weaker box office. Despite Disney's drag, the three main U.S. stock indexes were trading at a more than three week high after a weaker-than-expected labor market report last week fueled bets that the U.S. central bank will cut rates.
