One year after his liver transplant, Steve Jobs is back to his old self. While he still struggles with low weight as a result of health issues, insiders and analysts say he’s “invigorated,” and “fully operational” partially as a result of the iPad launch.
“Except for the fact that he’s lost a lot of weight, he’s the Steve Jobs of old,” said Tim Bajarin, who has followed Apple for more than two decades as founder of technology consulting firm Creative Strategies in Campbell, California told Bloomberg.
“At the visionary level, technology and design level, he seems to be working at the same level as he was before he was sick. If I was an investor, I’d be thrilled.”
Other signs that that 55-year-old Jobs is feeling fine: his personal replies to customer emails and a bumper crop of aquistitions of new companies by Apple.
“Steve Jobs is back and I think he’s invigorated because of the release of the iPad,” said Michael Yoshikami, who oversees about $1 billion, including Apple shares, as chief investment strategist for YCMNet Advisors in Walnut Creek, California. “He’s fully operational.”
