NASDAQ.com has an article on Disneyland Paris. It closes with speculation that eventually Disney may buy the 60% stake in Disneyland Paris that it does not already own.
Just over 20 years ago, Disney rang in the debut of Euro Disney, its first theme park ever in Europe. Despite high hopes for the park, however, which was within a four-hour drive of 68 million people, it opened to an onslaught of mockery and disgust.
Today Disneyland Paris is a success from a visitor standpoint but having paid a pretty penny for the land, is still debt laden with losses of about $130 million in 2012 and $100 million last year.
