Look at the whole market. NASDAQ is down 12.35, dow down 50.34. TEch sector is in a downfall though it has made some gains back up. I doubt there is anyother reason as to why APple is down.

Essam.: Stock not down due to Mr. Jobs's job - MacWorld writes Mr. J.'s "volunteer work" was a job done well : macworld.com:80/pages/december.97/News.4030.html Mr. J will come back from Hawaii rested and hopefully ready to add to the above accomplishments . Come on Steve take the job - remember mismanaged Fortune Systems ! My guess . The stock is under selling pressure and will remain as such until the (new) executive option plan is in place . If Mr. J takes the job , the Board majority owes its existence to him , and must be sensitive to his sacrficial sale of 1.5 mln shrs at 14 5/8 ths. Just a guess . Jim K.

<< There must be another reason. >> Last August I said that AAPL would be back to 17 by October. The reasoning was simple: there wasn't enough time for Jobs' changes to have an impact on the bottom line. This meant that the quarter sales figures would disappoint all those who bought on hype after the M$ announcement. Right now AAPL is trading at 16 3/4. When the market turmoil subsides the price will back up a little and stabilize around 17 1/2 or thereabouts....
