Sounds normal to me. He is going to retire in the next 5 years, so it is only logical to liquidate some shares and convert them into a more solid asset.

Considering Disney's stock just hit a 52 week high it's not a bad move at all.

Must be a good time to sell ...I was thinking a split may be coming soon
