Investment bank Piper Jaffray has told Apple investors that the company’s leadership would be required to disclose “in a timely fashion” any changes that would prevent CEO Steve Jobs from maintaining his role, according to AppleInsider.
“We believe Steve Jobs commands attention from investors given his high profile as founder of the company and his hands-on approach to Apple’s products,” analyst Gene Munster wrote in a note to clients. “As such, we believe that Apple’s board has a responsibility to disclose any changes that may impede him to continue to serve.”

I fail to understand how this post has any relevance whatsoever. It’s simply designed to spread FUD, in an attempt to convey the worst.
This is seems to be a pattern from Mr. Sellers.
