Apple to invest $600 billion in US over 4 years, exceeding original plan by $100 billion.

Apple Inc. (AAPL) has announced a significant increase in its investment commitment to the United States, raising its total investment to $600 billion over the next four years. This announcement comes ahead of an Oval Office event where Apple CEO Tim Cook will join President Donald Trump to unveil the updated plans [1].

The new commitment, which exceeds the previous commitment of $500 billion made in February, includes the launch of the American Manufacturing Program (AMP). This program aims to bring more of Apple's supply chain and advanced manufacturing operations to the U.S. [2].

The AMP will support the expansion of Apple's manufacturing facilities across various states, including Arizona, California, Iowa, Kentucky, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Texas, and Utah. This initiative is expected to create thousands of new jobs, with a focus on research and development, silicon engineering, software development, and AI and machine learning [2].

The first AMP partners include Corning, Coherent, GlobalWafers America (GWA), Applied Materials, Texas Instruments (TI), Samsung, GlobalFoundries, Amkor, and Broadcom. These partnerships will help establish a comprehensive end-to-end silicon supply chain in the U.S., producing more than 19 billion chips for Apple products in 2025 [2].

Apple's increased commitment to the U.S. follows a period of mixed relations with President Trump, who has previously pushed for Apple to assemble its iPhones in the U.S. rather than in China or India. Despite the political backdrop, Apple has emphasized its dedication to optimizing its supply chain and increasing its U.S. presence [1].

The stock market reacted positively to the news, with Apple shares climbing 5% ahead of the announcement. This move underscores investors' confidence in Apple's strategic decision to enhance its domestic operations and align with the administration's economic policies [1].
