Did Steve Jobs lose a Fortune last Week?

From Apple 2.0
Apple Selloff: How much did Steve lose?

From Macinstein
Steve Jobs has lost $214 million $220 million $1 billion since Macworld

(Shawn's Comment: Both web site are apparently published by people who have no clue how the stock market works. Jobs didn't lose a dime during last week's sell off - as he wasn't buying or selling stock at the time, he didn't lose or receive any money)

Meanwhile in USAToday...

Last week, USA Today had an article about how much Steve Jobs had made from his Apple stock, and options. It focused on the long term increase in the stock since his return. And USA Today also noted that these gains are purely on paper, and that he hasn't sold any stock lately.

It was the complete antithesis of the "Steve Jobs loses a bazillion" stories.

And just as incorrect.

And just as incorrect. "Paper" gains or loses are *completely* meaningless and no self respecting journalist even brings them up.
