BTIG initiates coverage on DreamWorks Animation (NASDAQ: DWA) with a Sell.

BTIG analyst says, "While DreamWorks is doing its best to maximize profitability in today’s movie business (focusing on family-friendly content, developing franchises that can be exploited across multiple business lines and leveraging premium 3D pricing to increase theatrical profits), the underlying economic realities of the film industry are pressuring profitability. Consumers simply are not as interested in owning movie content the way they were several years ago. Consumer spending on home entertainment purchases was down 5% in the first half of 2010 and we believe it worsened in Q3."
