During Trump’s last period, Cook raised a successful “charming aggression” that received a tariff exemption without demand for Trump to create iPhones in the United States, CNBC. ReportedAnd he is probably conditioning that Apple’s recent Billion 500 billion affiliation will lead to similar results, even if Apple never provides an American -made iPhone.
According to the CNBC, in 2017, Trump announced that Apple’s fellow Foxkin was making three “big beautiful plants” in the United States and claimed that he would be Apple plants. But pandemic diseases disrupted construction, and most of these projects were abandoned, a facility only helps to briefly make facial masks, not apple products. In 2019, Apple pledged to create a Texas factory that Trump visited. While Trump insisted that an American -made iPhone was on the horizon that Apple had transferred some business to the United States, the factory had pledged to submit only MacBook Pro.
According to the CNBC, Morgan Stanley’s analyst Eric Wooding suggested that Apple “could pledge some small volume production in the United States (Home Pod? Air Tag?)” “To get a discount instead of pledge to build iPhones in 2025.
Although it may seem like a test and a true game plan, for Coke, Apple’s logistics may never have been so complicated. However, analysts told Fortune that experienced logistics masterminds believe that flexibility is a priority, and that Cook has already shown that Trump’s actions can be assessed by storing iPhones through his factory in India and redirecting US -bound iPhones.
Bloomberg reports that Trump talks with China, Apple hopes an annual estimate of 35 million iPhones in India “can meet a large part of his needs in the United States.” Analysts said the move proves that when it comes to steering Apple through the chaos of trade war, kicks can be a man for this.
But to maintain global demand – selling more than 220 million iPhone annually – Apple will struggle to remove itself from China quickly, where there is a lot of skill to measure production that Apple says is not yet available in the United States. For example, CNBC noted that Foxkin hired 50,000 additional workers in its largest China plant last fall to make enough iPhones to meet demand during the latest launches of September.
Since Apple depends on China, Coke will need to stay on the table, looking for friendly terms from both sides to ensure that its business is not intact for years.
“Someone can imagine, if there is a tremendous bargain between us and China for the next or two years,” said Fredman, “Fredman said,” As soon as Tim Cook plays a mediating role. “
