Since the arrival of Donald Trump to power in the United States, not only the companies in the country have noticed many changes that affect their economy, but the rest of the planet, with tariffs and measures that make everyone alert to what can happen.
That is why, Apple, as far as possible, will try to content its president, investing more money in your countryalthough doing so in others is more profitable in the long run, so we will see what they have proposed, and how it will affect everyone.
Apple will invest a lot of money in your country
Apple has just announced that Invest 100,000 million more in the United Statesalready adding 600,000 million for the next few years. This comes just after Trump announced a 100 % tariff for imported chips, but with an exception, since if you factor or invest in the US, you pound, so that Apple's play can go well, within the problems that Trump can produce.
This investment is part of a new program called “American Manufacturing Program”, with which they seek to boost manufacturing in the country, thus avoiding conflicts. Among their key agreements are the one with Corning, where they are going to invest 2.5 billion so that all the glass of the iPhone and Apple Watch is done in a plant in Kentucky. In addition, they will open there a joint innovation center.
The news seems to favor the company, since Apple's shares rose 5 % after the announcement, and it seems that they continue to grow.
Meanwhile, that plan to move production to India, which was growing, is now in pause. It seems that Apple will adjust its strategy dodging tariffs and reinforcing local productionalthough, as we said, it is not the most profitable for them, but it is according to the new policies of the country, and what can come in the future, saving headaches later and not depending so much on other places.
In short, Apple is doing what it touches. If manufacturing in the US now avoids problems with tariffs and political tensions, because they do it, even if they get more expensive. It is not ideal for them, but it is the most practical. They prefer to ensure the terrain before getting into trouble. Stoping India for now is not a resignation, it is a pause while the panorama is clarified. This does not only save money, but to avoid scares and have more control. And if their actions go up, better than better. Apple moves file, and as always, it does it in its own way. Quiet, but with a firm step.
