At this point in time there are just too many unknowns, and lack of meaningful data, for Comcast to make a final decision.
* So much depends on a vaccine, when it hits, and how effective it will be.
*Washington is presently unable to reach agreement on a stimulus package, quite opposite of the bi partisan $3 trillion agreement they quickly reached in the early spring.
What happens with those talks will have a lot to do with how the economy rebounds.
*There's an election in ninety some days. Lots of uncertainty until that happens.
*International tourism is dead everywhere. What happens in that sector all depends on vaccine development.
*All theme/amusement park attendance is probably at close to the worst case scenario. Tourists are visiting places like beaches and outdoor travel in big numbers. But they won't
visit destinations where they have to wear masks in the summer heat. Parks are in a damn if you do, damn if you don't, situation with masks. No matter what route they took, they'd get criticized,
or tourist visits withheld.
*Without any meaningful data, everything is just a best guess when theme park tourism will rebound. Most everything depends on factors that are beyond Comcast's control.
So, at this point in time, the best course is probably to cut costs and sit pat until more information is available. Executives can't make decisions without sufficient information, and there really isn't any
right now. When the dust clears, which will probably be in about 10 to 12 months, or maybe a bit longer, they'll have a better perspective available to determine what route to go.
