I have recently been trying my hand at the stock market and think I’ve come across a secret in investing. My hypothesis states: I Billy Simpson, under liberty, and justice for the rockets red glare, do declare that when highly anticipated movies are released, stock prices raise, accordingly, for those companies that own production studios. One company, whose stock may raise in the coming week due to “Men in Black 3” or “MIB3” being released this Friday, May 25, 2012, is the Sony Corporation (SNE).

Recently, Disney (DIS) released the epic money maker “The Avengers” and its stock went up accordingly. At close, 4/24/12, DIS stock was $42.18/ share and 17 days later it peaked at $45.56/ share. Check my math but that might just be an 8% increase in 17 days. Now,this may seem like a sure bet on any other major motion picture relaese, but you have to think about the movies success, anticipated release, and other contributing factors that may have led to the epic success of the DIS stock.

The Street, recently wrote an article entitled, ‘Sony Corporation Stock Downgraded (SNE)’, which discusses the stock being downgraded from hold to sell. In the same article it references that the net operating cash flow for SNE is, “still fairing well by exceeding its industry average cash flow growth rate of -71.16%” (www.thestreet.com). This news, does not mirror the same positive news surrounding DIS great quarterly report that was released in early MAY 2012, but I am confident that “MIB3″will parallel the success of, if not surpass “The Avengers” worldwide success. Will Smith reaches a far greater demographic range than a lot of other actors and I’m betting all his fans will go support his long awaited “MIB” addition.
“MIB3” is set to release May 25, 2012…visit the blog daily. We will compile and compare notes leading up to June 10, 2012.
