Comment on Apple loses $34.9 billion in market cap

This would never have happened if Steve Jobs was alive.

You're right! The stock never crested above 400 while Jobs was alive, so the fact that it's fallen to 540 (and mostly recovered in after-hour sales) WOULD never have happened while he was alive.

Steve Jobs was an exceptional marketing guy, but even manipulating stock prices would have been out of his reach. I seriously doubt that Steve being alive or dead would have changed much.

I'm pretty sure assharif was being funny and/or a deliberate troll. But I'm not completely sure.
