System1 is trading at $2.48, up 10.49%, after MapQuest reached the No. 1 U.S. navigation-app ranking.
- It also reached No. 8 among free apps, its highest position in 30 years; hundreds of thousands downloaded the apps, lifting usage to roughly 50 times normal levels.
- The surge followed MapQuest’s decision to retain familiar historical lake and gulf names while offering users a renaming tool.
- System1’s gain follows an 18.52% increase on August 31, despite broader technology and market weakness.
