Jumpin said: Well, Nintendo stocks increased another 75 trillion yen, and the company has surpassed Honda to become the #2 most valuable company in Japan. Only Toyota is ahead. This is the spot they held between 2007 and 2008 during the peak value years of the Wii and DS marketplaces. This is likely due to Nintendo utilizing it's library of games for SNES mini, growing success in the mobile market, growing brand recognition, and of course, speculation on massive Nintendo Switch market success. |
While Nintendo did overtake Honda in terms of market cap, they are not 2nd behind Toyota. There are still a number of companies ahead of Nintendo.
https://www.nikkei.com/markets/ranking/page/?bd=caphigh List of publicly traded Japanese companies by market capitalization: 01. Toyota - 22.62T yen 02. NTT - 10.86T yen 03. Softbank - 10.46T yen 04. Mitsubishi UFJ - 10.22T yen 05. NTT DocoMo - 10.08T yen 06. KDDI - 7.64T yen 07. Japan Tobacco - 7.37T yen 08. Keyence - 7.34T yen 09. Japan Post Bank - 6.28T yen 10. Nintendo - 6.24T yen 11. Honda - 6.16T yen 12. Sumitomo Mitsui FG - 6.12T yen 13. Japan Post - 5.88T yen 14. Canon - 5.28T yen 15. Sony - 5.18T yen
It's worth noting that Nintendo is a volatile stock with tremendous spikes and dips. You're not going to see it stabalize at these abnormally high prices.
