0835 ET - Three companies ailing from cord-cutting consumers have now posted two consecutive quarters of streaming profits. Disney reports its second-straight adjusted profit in its direct-to-consumer business, following up similar profitable quarters for Warner Bros. Discovery's Max and Paramount's Paramount+. Customers cancelling their cable-TV subscriptions have dented what has for years been a profit center for entertainment conglomerates. Comcast-owned Peacock is still yet to turn an adjusted profit. Netflix, meanwhile, has been notching billions in earnings for years. (ben.glickman@wsj.com; @benglickman)
