Could Cook spin a more positive outlook for AAPL because of his yearly stock options vesting in August?


I wonder is it possible that Tim Cook could spin a more positive outlook for Apple, even if he knows better, because according to openinsider.com his yearly stock options vesting end of August (click this direct link to see). As you can see we're talking big money here for him at stake.

He obviously won't make any false statements but it's not difficult to spin a more rosy outlook. I also noticed Nike spinning a rather positive outlook during their earnings but investors didn't buy it and stock fell afterward regardless. Either way the conflict of interest in the case of Cook's yearly stock options vesting end of August is kinda troublesome. If Q3 earnings later this year disappoint investors would probably see an even bigger stock price drop than.
