As David M said, uncertainty scares investors. Protracted illness with no plan to deal with top management has all the indicators of future chaos.

Most of the time this punishment is irrational at first and then reality sets in later and the stock price comes back to some sort of rational price. I wish Steve Jobs the best. He really is the genius behind Apple. I believe the company could succeed without Jobs but it would never be quite as good at producing innovative products.

But it has done Apple well and pulled them out of extinction. But yes Jobs needs to be a spoke in the wheel not the whole wheel. Should be interesting how it all plays out.

Jobs has made himself the hub, and without him the wheels can't turn properly. It's time to reinvent the wheel; so that if the hub does pack up, there's still other things keeping the wheels in motion. Good point.
