  • How Apple stockpiled iPhones to avoid tariffs and keep prices low for a while

    Very simple in concept: return production to the U.S., although hasn't been done for years. Remember the Fremont plant…
    It’s funny, anti-tariffs are all complaining and crying about high prices, dude open your brains, America had been ripped off for a long long time and we keep borrowing..we’re sinking fast. If Apple has to raise prices so be it. Will still gonna buy them.

  • iPhone 17 Pro predicted to cost over $2000 because of Trump tariffs

    The most likely scenario remains that China lowers tariffs on US goods and our reciprocal tariffs automatically adjust.  

    Why all of these articles fail to mention how reciprocal tariffs work baffles me. 
    Because they don't work the way Trump said that they do, or the way that you think that they do. The president's folks invented a forumula that has nothing to do with tariffs applied by countries importing US goods. The 54% tariff that China has responded to, was made by dividing a given country's trade deficit by its exports to the US. Then the resulting figure was divided in half.

    There was also a baseline 10% that was applied everywhere. This isn't reciprocal. This is just pulled out of Trump's advisor's asses.


    So. Tell me how that's supposed to work, since China increased tariffs on goods imported from the US this morning?



    I don’t know so you tell me, you seem like an expert, so when did the new tariffs started??

  • Apple will take a $33 billion hit to its bottom line because of Trump tariffs

    chasm said:
    Without getting political, I think it is easy to look back on history and see what high tariffs and trade wars caused by tariffs have done in terms of damage to the instigators. This is a bad time to be an American consumer.
    While we continually swallowed in debt, it seems like no one is interested in mentioning that, sooner or later no more Apple or America for all of us. Think about that, I don’t care if I pay $5000 for new iPhone.
