What I Found
Tim Cook stepping down does not automatically mean Apple is in trouble.
Everyone seems ready to treat Tim Cook stepping down as a crisis. I get why people react that way. Apple is one of the most watched companies in the world, and any leadership change at the top makes people nervous.
The quick answer: Tim Cook stepping back from day-to-day leadership is not necessarily bad news for Apple. If John Ternus becomes the next CEO, Apple may actually become more product-focused, which could be exactly what the company needs.
