Markets were somewhat mixed as stocks entered a truncated trading week with Thanksgiving on the menu. The Nasdaq and S&P 500 were pushing lower, down 0.6% and 0.3%, respectively. The Dow Jones was the only major average with a slight gain, this comes with a lot of help from Disney.

The Mouse House was posting a gain or more than 7% early on Monday after it was announced that Disney’s board of directors had replaced CEO Bob Chapek with Bob Iger. Previously, Iger had served as Disney’s CEO with a fairly prosperous reign and now the board is hoping they can rekindle that magic.
