Mouse House be rollin' in the green!!

With its fountain of magic constantly splashing the world with drops of greatness, the Walt Disney Co. has hit an all-time high in the stock department.

It's like going all the way to the top of Tower of Terror!!

Or as Reese Witherspoon and her family have experienced (above), the top of the crazy Splash Mountain hill!

Reaching an astounding $51.13 on Wednesday, the company has lifted shares 36% for 2012. This comes on the heels of last month's enormous 24% increase in its fiscal third-quarter profit.

Maybe taking Facebook public wasn't the best idea after all.

Since the initial public offering, the price of the company's stock has dropped dramatically. What started out as $38 a share is now just $27.24 (as of right now) and the company's worth has dropped by at least $25 billion!

Since Mark Zuckerberg's fortune is dependent on the stock's performance on the market, his worth has decreased by $5 billion. In fact, he's actually been knocked off of Bloomberg's list of top 40 billionaires worldwide.

Stock in the social network debuted at $38-per-share, but is now at $33.64 (and fluctuating as we speak).

What a bummer!

This probably isn't the best news for Mark Zuckerberg to wake up to on the Monday after his surprise wedding over the weekend. Hopefully he doesn't let business bring his mood down from one of the most joyous occasions of his life.

A New York judge tossed Howard Stern's lawsuit against SiriusXM Radio out of court last week, but the shock jock isn't backing down.

He has appealed the ruling and maintains the company screwed him out of "promised" stock awards after exceeding target subscribers.

Howard's team felt they were owed $300 million, but the judge said his contract's language “is inconsistent with any reading that the parties intended subscribers acquired by merger with XM to be considered” in awarding stock.

TWO BILLION DOLLARS IN TAXES?!?!?! WTF?!
