For Tim Cook it would be a good idea to take a closer look at this video...
Also under Tim Cook’s reign Apple has dominated the wearables market with a product that everybody dismissed in the beginning.

One of the reason why Steve never initiated Stock buy back and were sitting on big pile of cash were simple, he could bet on products that might or might not make money. ( He was never really sure ) They will have enough resources to weather the storm. He knew technology moves so fast that one single misstep will means 2 - 3 years behind.
As bad as Apple might seems today ( they aren't bad... we just thought it could be better ), it is still far better than it was in the 90s.
Steve Jobs essentially described what was later coined "The Innovator's Dilemma"[1], but in a more general way. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Innovator%27s_Dilemma
It is also worth mention a lot of people running the company properly know or read "The Innovator's Dilemma", but to actually understand and put things into action is a completely different things. Shareholders just don't like risk.

That said, I think Apple is sitting on top of another blockbuster, similar to the iPhone in terms of impact, if they know how to play it well.

Today, Apple earns 70b/year profit, is growing at 10% per year and is incredibly diversified. They could survive on any one of their businesses and in recent years grew two from nothing i.e. Services and Wearables into 1B+ businesses.
