Apple Faces 25% Tariff Threat From Trump If iPhones Are Not Built In The US
Apple Faces 25% Tariff Threat From Trump If iPhones Are Not Built In The US

President TRUMP escalated trade tensions with a warning to Apple via his Truth Social platform, threatening a 25% tariff on iPhones sold in the U.S. unless production shifts stateside. The tech giant’s shares (AAPL) slid 3.26% in pre-market trading following the remarks, reflecting investor unease over renewed trade policy volatility.
Apple’s pivot to Indian manufacturing—a strategic response to earlier tariffs on Chinese goods—now faces fresh uncertainty. The company has yet to address the latest ultimatum, leaving markets to speculate on potential supply chain disruptions. Trump’s tariff-first approach, a hallmark of his initial presidency, continues to reshape global trade alliances as nations recalibrate to his economic vision.
