I find this statement hard to believe - to say the least. Not sure where you took your info from, but Disney isn't some firm that has recently hit the headlines. No matter what sources you quote from, the sort of info suggests that Disney has no assets at all.

It just means the market cap is higher, nothing else.

It means the stock is over-priced. In a rational world the investment decisions would be trivial.

Disney has no assets

One of the largest private land owners in Florida. Also land in Europe, Japan, California?

Intellectual property and brand value? Marvel. Merchandising rights for toys. Broadway shows.

Before Disney+, there was Disney channel

Disney is a juggernaut

“You just won the Super Bowl, what are you going to do next?!”

“I’m going to watch Netflix!”

And yet Netflix's offerings seem more slim than ever. I am scrolling past endless thumbnails of The Shape of Water and I can find nothing to watch.

To those downvoting parent please be aware that Netflix's offering varies a lot depending on geo-location. Not necessarily a Netflix only issue but still.

As anecdata, after the VPN ban, I am stuck with my local offering and last week I realized I can't watch "Groundhog Day", which exists on Netflix but not for my region... a film from 1993.

Many things can impact can impact how a company might be valued. Enterprise Value (EV) is a commonly used valuation metric that subtracts cash and adds debt to the market cap as calculated by share price. Netflix has an EV of $183b and Disney has an EV $228b. Then there’s other assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and ratios, trends, and speculation to go with that.

As an aside, I have been unable to register for disney+ in Germany. Both my and my partner's payment methods are always rejected with an unknown error. We tried 2 cards each, we even tried using paypal and even that still didn't work. After reaching out to their support on twitter we're still unable to register. The support chat implied that this is a common problem in Germany for some reason.
