The financial industry has long been attempting to get to the bottom of what alpha is within financial advice. Someone pays a financial adviser X amount, does that person derive more in value from that advice than they pay out?

When thinking about nostalgia, youâd be hard pressed to find a company that evokes nostalgia more than Disney. For almost 100 years Disney has been entertaining people around the world with family friendly entertainment thatâs linked generations. Maybe youâve enjoyed their movies, had a favourite Disney character, owned any of their memorabilia, had the fortune to visit one of their theme parks as a child (or even as an adult), or just have an interest in their storied history. Many people feel a connection with Disney as it evokes warm memories for them.
But lately Disney hasn't been a great investment.

Andre and Serena didnât just get to be the best, they had to recognise shortcomings and weaknesses, and address them so they could reach their true potential.
