Here we go again with Trump tweeting out policy while he’s on the john.
Of course you’re right. Of course it won’t make any long-term impacts. He’s just spouting it off.
Just but when there’s a discount in the market and ride it back when he eventually reaches a deal.

I remember getting downvoted to oblivion for pointing out how making Apple move from one shite hole to another shite hole didn't do much of anything, regardless of the new shite hole being US friendly.

Doesn’t bother me, my phone is a Huawei.

no, what will happen is tariffs on the incoming COST will generate money for the Gov. Apple will have to decide how much they want to pass off the higher material costs in the consumer price. Apple profits will dip a little and they will make that up in the bottom line by reducing their spend in places like China.

Its odd, you know so much about this subject. Yet in my 25 year plus career in import of micro and nano tech from China. I've never come across you.
That $1200 iPhone 16 pro made in Shenzhen by Foxconn. Yeah, the cost to produce that device is roughly $400. Apple will pay the tariff and keep moving. Or they'll create an assembly only facility in the US.

there is no affordable phone made in the USA. that’s a joke. the tariffs would need to be like 400% to make it cost neutral. $5k iphone
