[via WallStreet Journal]
Steve Jobs in a rare feat, opened up his health condition partially to the public. He disclosed that the reason for his weight loss was due to a hormonal imbalance. He stated that he has begun treatment for it and that the treatment was relatively simple and straightforward. His doctors have said that the path to gaining back his weight would take same time. They are anticipating Steve to regain his weight towards the end of spring.
Stock prices of Apple took a slight jump. As of this writing it’s trading at around $94.93 dollars, up by 4.5%. The market responded favorably to Steve’s disclosure.

Speculations have been made in the past and with this statement, other theories will arise. But personally, no matter what it is, I wish Steve Jobs the ideal of health and hope that he does see some of his weight come back.
