Steve Jobs passed away in October 2011. Until his death, he had been the heart and soul of Apple’s innovation.
Today, 80,000 Apple employees continue onward in his absence. A huge question for many investors is whether the company can be successful without him. The current stock price would seem to indicate that the market does not. What do you think?
What role did Jobs play? How can Apple respond to his loss? Would you be willing to invest in Apple without his leadership? Why or why not?
