Trump Advisor Peter Navarro Reportedly Accuses Apple CEO Of Delaying ...
- On Monday, Peter Navarro, a former Trump trade advisor, publicly criticized Apple CEO Tim Cook for delaying the shift of iPhone manufacturing out of China.
- This criticism follows ongoing Trump administration pressure since the first term to reshore production and increase American jobs amid tariff threats of 25%.
- Navarro described the ongoing delays as a protracted and frustrating saga in Silicon Valley and expressed disbelief that Apple cannot manufacture iPhones outside China using modern production methods and AI advancements.
- Apple’s stock dropped 1.69% that day, while analysts have suggested that producing an iPhone entirely in the United States might push its price to around $3,500, intensifying discussions about the practicality of full domestic manufacturing.
- This ongoing dispute suggests significant challenges remain in shifting Apple's production, with Apple investing $500 billion in U.S. projects but still primarily manufacturing iPhones overseas.
