The comprehensive use of the factory will replace the production of the United States and create the “new gold era for the country’s economy.”
But a movement behind that promise is hidden, which threatens to shake the foundations of the global technology industry. Most of the industrial companies in the United States, such as Apple or Nvidia, often depend on countries used to produce their devices, combine its components or maintain the cost of controlled.
What are the new charges of Trump
In 20 minutes we will tell you to live innovations in this caseBut the key keys you need to know include one of this activity Base fee of 10% For all imports, with high specific rates to some countries: 32% Taiwan – existing semiconductors – 46% To Vietnam and 26% As far as India is concerned, among other things. China’s case is still dangerous because new taxes 34% They add up to 20% of the prevailing rates.
This action is seen as a direct attack against the Asian companyTrump accused it of “stealing American technology and industry.”
India is somewhat struggling, with a small line, 26%, which may strengthen Its position as a new production center for companies like Apple or Google.
What impacts Trump fees in the technology world?
Trump’s decision did not reflect on big technical activities. Companies such as Apple, Amazon and Nvidia experienced a fall after this announcement, reflecting the market concern.
This is not surprising: Gubertino company, for example, It often depends on production in China Most of its iPhone’s zombie in Chinese factories administered by Form Foxkan and Vietnam may increase its functional costs. This, inappropriate, can have an impact on user pockets.
According to industrial data, Foxconn adds more than 50 million iPhone a yearThe device that considers more than half of Apple’s global income. Kubertino’s company began to divert a part of its production towards India and Vietnam, moving the product of products such as iPad, Apple Watch or Airbots. But Trump’s announcement is likely to accelerate these plans.
Trump has also eliminated the “minimis” exemptionThis allowed products worth less than $ 800 to import from China or Hong Kong without paying fees. This change directly affects the operating system model like Tem, Sheen, Ebay, Edsy or AmazonIt used the financial vacuum to provide the most competitive prices.

What technical products are more expensive for Trump’s fees?
The above -mentioned apple and its iPhone or its iPhone or Amazon, Temu or Sheen’s products, except the impact of the shopping basket, sounds like a case and collected itself for financial periods: One of the new Nintendo switch 2.

Graphics card manufacturers such as Nvidia or AMT, and pre -assummit equipment already alerted the immediate price increase that affects the final user.
But aluminum is a beginning. List Materials Includes other components affected by new charges Rare earthOvarian LithiumOvarian CobaltOvarian Silicon Oh Steel.

Battle war with global consequences
Warning beyond direct impact on companies, economists and researchers Great economic hazards. The results of Trump may increase Global inflationPrevent access Technology More slowly Novelty. Also, in the middle of the middle period, more fragment Global economy.
That is: what are the experts predicted, we are going to see Common and impressive rise in pricesIn the technology sector and almost all economic areas.
