Alset AI Ventures Inc

Leading sports brand ESPN is launching a new direct-to-consumer streaming platform under the flagship ESPN brand. Here's a look at what this means for Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/streaming"> the streaming sector.</a>
What Happened: ESPN announced this week that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40946689/disney-faces-more-change-ahead-as-espn-dtc-launch-will-accelerate-cord-cutting-nba-"> its long-awaited DTC</a> streaming platform will debut in the fall with a $29.99 per month price point.
"We are providing everything ESPN has to offer directly to fans and all in one place," ESPN Chairman Jimmy Pitaro <a href="https://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/45126967/espn-direct-consumer-streaming-service-set-fall-launch">said</a>.
Pitaro said ESPN is the most "trusted, loved and recognized name in sports."
"Our straightforward approach to name and pricing will help fans cut through the clutter, and provide them compelling options to access all our content within the enhanced ESPN App."
Pitaro said the app will be "the ultimate sports destination."
ESPN announced that users can buy an annual subscription for $299 per year, saving on the monthly cost.
ESPN+, the company's already existing streaming platform, will continue to be offered for $11.99 per month or $119 per year. There is also bundling options with other Disney streaming platforms, including Disney+ and Hulu.
Consumers who subscribe to the new streaming app will get access to seven ESPN domestic linear networks, along with ESPN on ABC and other streaming options. The company said consumers will get access to over 47,000 live events a year, along with on-demand replays, studio shows and original programming.
Additional details about the service, including a launch date, will be announced this summer.

Why It's Important: The new streaming platform could be one of the final nails in the coffin for cable television, with live sports being one of the top reasons consumers have cable over streaming platforms.
Users will now be able to secure the ESPN and ESPN family of channels on their own outside of cable, a move that LightShed Partners analyst Rich Greenfield <a href="https://lightshedtmt.com/2025/05/14/espns-direct-to-consumer-trojan-horse/">said </a>could help Disney.
Greenfield predicted earlier this year that Disney would have two million ESPN DTC subscribers by the end of 2025.
"We feel even more confident after ESPN revealed their pricing and packaging yesterday," Greenfield said.
The analyst said the goal of launching the ESPN app direct-to-consumer could be to get existing ESPN subscribers to watch via the app instead of with a multichannel video programming distributor, or MVPD.
"If ESPN can drive MVPD and vMVPD subscribers to use the ESPN app instead of watching on Comcast, DirecTV, or YouTube TV, they will finally have a direct relationship with their viewers."
Greenfield said this would give Disney more options when it comes to targeting advertising and engaging with fans in other ways, such as through fantasy sports, merchandise and sports betting.
"We believe the best way to judge ESPN's DTC effort is not by DTC subscribers at year-end 2025 or 2026, but rather how many consumers are using the ESPN app in a year to watch ESPN and how much time spent occurs on the ESPN app."
The analyst said getting a "meaningful portion" to watch through the app would be a "big win for Disney."
"If not, the ESPN DTC launch will be a relatively minor event that helps offset the continued decline in multichannel video universe subscribers."
Greenfield highlighted in the recent note that Disney CEO Bob Iger previously called the launch of the ESPN DTC app the biggest development for the sports company since landing Monday Night Football rights in 2005.
DIS Price Action: Disney stock was up 1.35% to $112.94 at market close on Wednesday versus a 52-week trading range of $80.10 to $118.63. Disney stock is up 1.9% year-to-date in 2025 and up 7.25% over the past year.

<h2>The Core of Analyst Ratings: What Every Investor Should Know</h2>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.

Expert Outlook: Corteva Through The Eyes Of 10 Analysts

In the current market session, Kennametal Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMT#NYSE">KMT</a>) share price is at $21.68, after a 2.17% drop. Over the past month, the stock increased by 15.20%, but over the past year, it actually decreased by 16.65%. With good short-term performance like this, and questionable long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>Comparing Kennametal P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Kennametal has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 34.55 of the Machinery industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Tuesday was a bullish eye-opener for investors in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/technology-stocks" rel="noreferrer noopener">U.S. tech stocks</a>, as it&#8217;s becoming crystal clear that the AI Revolution has found its next major area of penetration: Saudi Arabia, Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives said.
Joining President Trump and his team of advisors on this key trip to the Middle East starting at the Saudi-U.S. Investment Forum he was joined by titans of the tech world including Nvidia Corp&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) Godfather of AI Jensen, Elon Musk, Amazon.Com Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Andy Jassy, Palantir Technologies Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) Alex Karp, Alphabet Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Ruth Porat, International Business Machines Corp&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>) Arvind Krishna, OpenAI&#8217;s Sam Altman, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) Lisa Su, among other prominent tech leaders.
The theme was clear in Riyadh: the AI Revolution is coming to the Saudi Kingdom, and Riyadh will be a major buyer of AI chips, software, autonomous robotics, and data centers over the next decade.

Coming off a major US and China trade deal this weekend in Switzerland, which was a &#8220;dream scenario&#8221; for the markets and bullish tech investors, the tone in Riyadh has been about the bright green light on the massive AI buildout in Saudi, and this could open up a vast opportunity and TAM for Nvidia, Palantir, Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Amazon, Alphabet, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and many other well-positioned chip/software names over the coming years.
Ives noted that the market opportunity in Saudi Arabia could add another $1 trillion to the broader global AI market in the coming years, and this dynamic is not being priced into the market and tech names.
Trump granted the Crown Prince&#8217;s new AI company, Humain (PIF AI subsidiary), a major strategic partnership with Nvidia in which Jensen &amp; Co. will sell 18,000 next-generation Blackwell chips in the first deployment to power a Saudi supercomputer.
Over the next five years, Saudi Arabia will construct major data centers to train and deploy the Kingdom&#8217;s sovereign AI models.
This technology innovation is part of Saudi Arabia&#8217;s Vision 2030 initiative to move away from dependence and focus on technology and other strategic initiatives.
This is all part of a regional focus in the Middle East on building out data centers and the AI Revolution, which will start to vault UAE, Saudi, and Qatar to the priority list for U.S. tech companies. It also speaks to this global game of high-stakes poker being played by the Trump Administration, as while China is getting restrictions from Nvidia&#8217;s older H20 chip slowing down the AI buildout in Beijing, on the contrary, Ives noted Saudi getting the best Nvidia next-generation chips with a red carpet rollout from the rest of the Big Tech world.
China is taking notice, which will add to the drama of the broader U.S.-China tariff talks over the coming months.
This Saudi development is a significant trend to focus on over the coming months. As per the analyst, the AI theme is a bullish indicator that further shows the U.S. tech&#8217;s lead in this fourth Industrial Revolution.
He stated that there is one chip fueling this generational spending: the Godfather of AI, Jensen and Nvidia. This will be just the beginning as tech players like the hyperscalers, Palantir, Tesla, and others see the game-changing AI market opportunity in the Middle East. Ives expects bigger AI deals on the horizon, Ives added.
