Apple CEO Tim Cook is stepping down after significantly growing the company’s market value to $4.535 trillion. Hardware chief John Ternus will succeed him, marking a major leadership change for the world’s most valuable company. Despite strong recent financial results and a $100 billion buyback plan, investors face uncertainty as Apple’s growth story, especially in AI and new products, is seen as limited. The new CEO inherits complex geopolitical challenges and high expectations, with the stock currently reflecting little room for error in execution.
