Apple invests $100B in US manufacturing, boosting American production and resilience.
Apple Inc. is set to announce a significant investment in U.S. manufacturing, pledging an additional $100 billion to bring more of its production to the United States. This announcement, expected to be made on Wednesday, will bring Apple's total planned U.S. investments over the next four years to $600 billion [1].
The new investment, which focuses on producing critical components domestically, is part of Apple's broader strategy to increase its manufacturing presence in the United States. This move is seen as a significant boost to the U.S. economy and a sign of Apple's commitment to domestic manufacturing [2].
The White House has been actively promoting this investment, with National Economic Council director Kevin Hassett stating that companies are "moving here in droves," securing trillions of dollars in commitments to build new factories in the U.S. [3]. President Trump and Apple CEO Tim Cook are expected to attend the event announcing the investment.
This latest investment from Apple is part of a broader trend of companies increasing their U.S. presence under the Trump administration. Earlier this year, Trump announced a $100 billion investment in artificial intelligence data centers from Oracle Corp., SoftBank Group Corp., and OpenAI Inc., with a goal of increasing the total to at least $500 billion [2]. The president has also ramped up partnerships with key players in the chip industry, with Nvidia Corp. planning to produce as much as half a trillion dollars’ worth of AI infrastructure in the U.S. over the next four years [2].
The Trump administration has made securing investments a key part of negotiating with other countries on geopolitical issues. Part of the U.S.'s deal with the European Union included an agreement from the EU to purchase $750 billion in American energy products and invest $600 billion in the U.S., while the president’s deal with Japan includes the creation of a $550 billion fund to make investments in the U.S. [2].
