Why the time is not so right for Tim Cook’s entry?

I think Tim Cook is not entering the Apple at a right time. No matter how good he may be, he will never get the right credit for his efforts and performance. Apple’s stock almost rose five times in last three years and the current market price translates into the market capitalization of more than $350 billion for the company. Repetition of similar performance is almost impossible, even if Steve Jobs were to continue as CEO.

We all how Microsoft  has under performed the peers in last ten years and I won’t be surprised to see Apple also going through something like that and in this case Cook will be held responsible for average or below average performance of the stock even if he does everything Steve Jobs would have done under similar circumstances.
