Jefferies: This Pokemon Go Shit is Just Getting Started

Jefferies is out with a bullish note today, exclaiming the virtues of Pokemon Go and how it will transcend ordinary stupid app store chicanery and morph into a money making machine, on pace to gross $2b over the next year. Basically, no one really knows how Nintendo will monetize this insanely popular app, segueing into new games and monetization schemes. But they have a huge winners on their hands and the stock is likely to continue trading up. Prior to this recent run, markets had priced the Pokemon Go app at zero, something Jefferies believes is inherently and overtly stupid.

The downside risk is some idiot mowing down a parking lots filled with elderly people, in search for a squirtle.

      God invented Google so you can look this shit up by yourself. Every kid and some idiot adults are playing this game. My wife and kids insisted I buy shares so I bought 200 yesterday. Rather lose money than listen to “I told you so.”

        This game is going to whip these fat kids into shape. It’ll do more in a summer than Michelle Obama did in 8 years. It’s genius.

          Yes, it’s brilliant. Kids do need to get off their butts and get exercise. Pokemon gets them to do that, in a way where they actually enjoy it and want to do it. Because they are getting outside and getting exercise through games played with their same well loved electronic devices that have become inseparable parts of their bionic bodies. The same devices they used to be sittin on the couch with, and turning into lard asses with.

          Revolutionary, really.
