[ValueWalk] Apple Inc. (AAPL) Plunges Due To Cook’s New Management Team

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock recorded a new three month low of $591 (at at the time of this writing), after opening at $594 per share, the first time the company has traded below the $600 mark in over two months. This came in the aftermath of CEO Tim Cook’s management shake up, with investors remaining skeptical of the current leadership outlook for the world’s most valuable company, by market cap.

Yowza. When was Apple's last share plunge and how bad was it?

I think this is par for most management shake ups in the industry though. It will be more telling in a month or two if investors are still shaky about it.

I think the absence of a new product launch for 5 months (assuming they drop another iPad in March) is really going to bring them down. I wouldn't be surprised if it dropped below $500 by then.

? They just refreshed their entire line of products except the Mac Pro line, which is due in January. To the iPad, they just refreshed the internals, so technically this would be the iPad 3s.

Basically what I am saying is what are you seeing that they need to upgrade after only a week or two in the next few months?

It fell 1.44% today. How is that a plunge.

Honestly does all news about Apple need to be sensationalistic?

The management changes were announced over the weekend, on Friday stocks were lower at one point than at the time this article was written...

The jerks that got the boot were an anchor dragging down the company's potential. So getting them out of there was a great move. However, the process made the remaining leadership look like fools, and not only because they failed act earlier to remove executive deadweight. The peak inside their HQ showed the world a picture of disharmony, petty squabbles, and egotistical gridlock.

Not just that, their customer loyalty went downhill as well.

However, negative press prompted by a perceived lack of recent innovation by Apple has meant we are starting to see some growth in the number of previously highly loyal consumers who are now reconsidering whether or not they will purchase a new iPhone for their next device.”
