I wonder whether it was a strategic move to hold back on iphone 5 because of Steve's expected death which will greatly hurt the company stock. Perhaps they're holding it back and use the iphone 5 to kick up the stock again ... who knows.
R.I.P. to one of the greatest innovators of our time. to say he helped contribute to the shaping of modern media and technology is an understatement. my condolences to his family and the best of luck to apple for holding down the fort without steve.
NEWS react to stocks, not the other way around. Price has already been priced in, the moment STEVE announced OFFICIALLY leaving his CEO title. On the inside, everyone knew what was coming. It didn't take a genius to figure out what was going on. I suspect Steve DIED PRIOR to the SCHEDULED HYPED EVENT.
