Did you watch the video or are you guessing based on the thumbnail? Because the video isn’t about apples profitability.

I watched the first minute or so, which was aboua their stock price relative to Microsoft. Profitability is a huge part of a company’s stock price.
I didn’t watch the rest because I’m not going to watch a 30 min video without a good reason to.

TL;DR: Under Jobs, Apple focused on engineering products and the profitability and stock price followed. Under Cook, Apple focuses on stock price and is massively cutting R&D/Engineering costs to the point they did not release anything really new for years. E.g. Siri that is unable to catch up to modern chatbots.
