Ask a Fool: Is It Too Late for Lions Gate?

Updated

In the following video, Motley Fool analyst Rick Munarriz fields a question from a Fool reader curious about where to stand on Lions Gate and other entertainment companies, asking: "Which entertainment stock should I buy? Am I too late with buying Lions Gate? If so, what other company should I buy now?"

Lions Gate has more than doubled over the past year, and we're also seeing larger entertainment giants including Disney and Viacom hitting new highs. The gains are warranted. We're in the Golden Age of Streaming, where Netflix is paying top dollar for licensing rights on content, and any potential player in this field will probably have to overpay for content.

This bodes well for Lions Gate and its peers.


Now that's entertainment
It's easy to forget that Walt Disney is more than just the House of Mouse. True, Disney amusement parks around the world hosted more than 121 million guests in 2011. But from its vast catalog of characters to its monster collection of media networks, much of Disney's allure for investors lies in its diversity, and The Motley Fool's premium research report lays out the case for investing in Disney today. This report includes the key items investors must watch as well as the opportunities and threats the company faces going forward. So don't miss out -- simply click here now to claim your copy today.
