The Morrison Cone Conjecture is a fundamental conjecture in Algebraic Geometry on the geometry of the nef cone and the movable cone of a Calabi-Yau variety. We prove that if the Morrison Cone Conjecture holds for a smooth Calabi-Yau threefold Y, then it also holds for any smooth deformation of Y. We use this to prove new cases of the Morrison Cone Conjecture.
