Tim Cook, the native of Robertsdale, Ala. who took over Apple in the shadow of its legendary founder is clearly suited for the task. The New York Daily News reports:
Tim Cook has managed to fill Steve Job's big shoes. Since Cook became Apple's CEO, the company's total dollar market value of outstanding shares, or market capitalization, has increased by almost $350 billion. Apple's market cap is now just over $698 billion, which is twice the size it was in August 2011 when co-founder Steve Jobs resigned as CEO due to illness.
