Apple Analysts Are Very Well Trained. Not One Asked About Jobs? Health.

Apple just finished its quarterly earnings call a day after announcing that CEO Steve Jobs is taking a medical leave of absence. Yet not one Wall Street analyst on the call asked a singel question about Jobs well-being or even when investors might expect to learn more about the situation. It is as if the analysts knew that no such questions would be answered so they didn't even try. The closest we got was Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster who asked, "How far out do you guys actually plan?" COO Tim Cook wouldn't even give him a straight answer to that one. Here is his response, from MG's notes (bolded parts mine for emphasis):
