While you can't invest directly in Pixar, you can buy shares in Disney, which acquired Pixar in 2006. Disney is listed on the New York Stock Exchange with stock code "DIS".
It's important to note that Disney isn't just the parent company for Pixar. You're effectively also buying into Disney Experiences (responsible for theme parks, cruises, etc.), Disney Entertainment (responsible for Disney+, The Disney Channel, etc.) as well as brands you might not have realised were owned by Disney, like ESPN and Searchlight Pictures. That means the movement of Disney's share price will be affected by more than just the fortunes of Pixar.

Alternative ways to invest in Pixar (Disney)
Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including Pixar (Disney)), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
Pixar (Disney) is a major part of the NYSE, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Is Pixar (Disney) under- or over-valued?
Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value. Check out the Pixar (Disney) P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the United States stock markets on average as of November 09, 2023 (20.44). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.
Pixar (Disney)'s "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.4547. A PEG ratio below 1 can be interpreted as meaning the shares are not overvalued given the current rate of growth.
