According to Bloomberg's David Ingles in Hong Kong, this is the best one-day move for the stock since 1983. 

Pokémon Go is a new app from Nintendo that uses your phone's GPS to create a augmented reality world you traverse to catch Pokémon. 

This has lead to weird things happening to people in the real world trying to catch characters in a fake one.

Also possibly illegal things.
