Jobs Apple

It is reasonable to worry about Apple (Apple) after Steve Jobs (Steve Jobs).

He is an irreplaceable character, almost none.

Business community

People can achieve this level.


When Jobs resigned as chief executive on Wednesday,

Apple

The situation of the company is almost no better.

In the first 9 months of the current fiscal year, Apple's operating profit reached 31% (close to Microsoft's 39%), while revenue grew 78% (Microsoft's growth rate was 12%).


These achievements reflect a dazzling combination.

Apple has launched another excellent product in recent years.

Outsourcing played a key role.

Apple is expected to earn about $110 billion in revenue in the current fiscal year, most of which come from hardware, and its plant and equipment value is only about $7 billion.

At the same time, the brand's aura is not small, which enables apple to implement a high price strategy in a highly competitive market (by contrast, Microsoft is in favor of near monopoly).


Jobs is not the whole company.

But it is his personal characteristics that define Apple's style: making bold (and most correct) decisions, inspiring lower level loyalty and outstanding performance, and having a mind that expresses and foresees the public's longing.

You know, Jobs not only brought Macintosh computers, iPhone smartphones and iPad tablets, but also created an unprecedented successful Pixar Animation factory (Pixar Animation Studios).


The product cycle of smart phones and computers means

Steve Jobs

The magic will continue for a year or two, and his successor, Tim Cook, is highly regarded by Tim.

But even if it turns out that Cook is a great (or nearly great) leader, Apple may be close to some sort of enterprise maturity.

Even the most inspiring leaders can not eliminate competition (Google's open Android operating system has advantages over closed iPhone), and Apple's aura can seriously affect the profit margin of the company if it is slightly dimmed.

Before Jobs resigned, the Apple Corp's P / E ratio (calculated by earnings per share this year) only reached the market average.

Investors' caution is correct.
