7:42 am
in the shadow of giants. and as a result, i knew i was never going to have a product of my own to develop. >> you can see more of john blackstone's interview with ronald wayne tonight on "the cbs evening news" with jeff glor. i'm interested in knowing more. >> if he just kept ten shares even. >> i don't understand why he had to sell the whole thing. just keep a couple. they'll be worth $50 billion in a couple decades. anyway. >> cbs news business analyst jill schlesinger is with us. jill, good morning. >> good morning. >> 13-digit value mark. can they keep this up? >> well, i guess that they can keep it up for as long as the market is there. they've got great products. one thing that really has happened that's different under tim cook than his predecessor steve jobs. he has been a much more involved ceo with the financial management of this company. buying back shares.ingvian alsoy
