    [$$] CBS Shifts to Hunt for Next Chief Executive

    Former Walt Disney Co. Chief Operating Officer Tom Staggs has emerged as a top candidate to become CBS Corp.’s new chief executive, people familiar with the matter said, as the network tries to move past months of uncertainty and upheaval since the departure of Leslie Moonves over allegations of sexual harassment. The interest in Mr. Staggs has been informally conveyed to the executive, who left Disney in 2016 when it became clear he wouldn’t succeed Robert Iger as Disney’s chief executive, the people said. Other potential candidates for the CEO position include Hasbro Inc. CEO and CBS director Brian Goldner and Starz Chief Operating Officer Jeffrey Hirsch, a person close to the process said.

    NBC Chief Hints That Company May Unveil Netflix-Style Service

    Steve Burke, head of the Comcast Corp. division, suggested that the company might unveil an online TV service in 2019 -- though it’s hard to know how seriously to take a message written in the rhyming style of Dr. Seuss. Burke, who oversees the NBC network, cable channels such as USA, and the Universal theme parks and movie studio, has yet to announce a streaming product like those planned by rivals Walt Disney Co. and AT&T Inc.’s Warner Media next year. In his holiday note, Burke also lamented that Comcast lost out to Disney in a bidding war for 21st Century Fox’s entertainment assets.

    Fund investors would like to see their actively managed funds beat the market every year, but they've been left wanting for well over a decade. The lack of consistent outperformance on the part of large-cap active managers (the main contributors to the Ultimate Stock-Pickers concept) has been well documented by the S&P Indices Versus Active Funds (SPIVA) U.S. Scorecard. Other investment styles fared better, as 58.0% of large-cap value managers and 63.7% of large-cap growth managers outperformed their respective benchmarks.

    London-based media analytics firm Ampere Analysis reckons that the two giants will collectively end up spending $22 billion creating or buying entertainment content before this is even over. While certainly a big number, the biggest spend in the industry, in fact, current and prospective owners of Disney stock needn’t over-react. Rivals ranging from Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) to Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) to Comcast (NASDAQ:CMCSA) are all spending massive amounts on content, ultimately looking to generate even more revenue with it.
