For the past few days we have Pokemon GO in Romania, the game being released in 27 other countries on the planet, and this brought a lot of attention to those from Nintendo, but also to the Niantic company, the title being extremely popular in all the markets where it was released until now , the world being crazy about him.
Even though the game was released quickly in many markets, many people quickly found out that Pokemon GO is not working, the very high traffic generated by the users in the markets where it is available creating problems for those from Niantic, they failing in three days to return things to normal, as the world wants.
Although the launch Pokemon GO in various countries around the world it generated big problems for the infrastructures of Niantic and Nintendo, both companies had an extremely good evolution on the global stock markets, so that from the moment the title appeared, the share price of both companies continued to grow, along with the stock market capitalization .
According to analysts who followed the gradual launch of Pokemon GO, the price of Nintendo shares increased by 86% in the last few weeks, setting a value record for the last 8 years, this weekend bringing another 15 billion dollars for the stock market capitalization of the Japanese company, many people being surprised.
Pokemon GO is a new bubble on the Asian stock markets
Nintendo is taking full advantage of its popularity Pokemon GO, even though only 10% of the revenue generated by this title reaches his accounts, much less than what Niantic, Apple/Google, or the owners of the Pokemon franchise earn, but investors seem to care too little.
Shares of Nintendo jumped nearly 10 percent to a six-year high on Friday, extending their rally since the launch of Pokemon GO. Nintendo's shares rose to as much as 27,800 yen in early Tokyo trade, their highest level since mid-2010. At that price, the stock is up 86 percent from last Thursday, adding almost $15 billion to the company's market value.
Basically, Pokemon GO is a very big air bubble that inflated the value of the Nintendo company and certainly the accounts of many investors, but its growth will have a stop at some point, and then probably many people will lose a lot of money along the way that the share price will decrease.
Until then, Pokemon GO continues its rise, and what we have seen so far is only a small part of the hysteria that the game will generate around the world, because it has not yet been launched in Asian countries, where the world is really crazy after the whole series.
Japan, China, Korea and many other countries in the area do not have the game available yet, but after it is released, we will see even more people running after pokemon in the street, and Nintendo's stock price will definitely reach double the value of the one I had a few months ago.
