Apple is again worth $3 trillion, thanks to President Trump’s tariff exemptions
The world’s most valuable company, Apple, can again boast a market cap of above $3 trillion after President Trump exempted tariffs on its best-selling products, the iPhone.
Apple shares closed 2.2% higher on Monday, bringing its market value to $3.042 trillion. On Friday, the market cap was $2.976 trillion by the close of trading.
Late Friday, the Trump administration said technology goods like smartphones and PCs were going to be exempted from tariffs on China.
The rollercoaster is just on a flat straightaway right now. The ride is not over. Most fun to come!
President Trump remarked on Sunday via Truth Social about his latest tariff moves:
NOBODY is getting “off the hook” for the unfair Trade Balances, and Non Monetary Tariff Barriers, that other Countries have used against us, especially not China which, by far, treats us the worst! There was no Tariff “exception” announced on Friday. These products are subject to the existing 20% Fentanyl Tariffs, and they are just moving to a different Tariff “bucket.” The Fake News knows this, but refuses to report it. We are taking a look at Semiconductors and the WHOLE ELECTRONICS SUPPLY CHAIN in the upcoming National Security Tariff Investigations. What has been exposed is that we need to make products in the United States, and that we will not be held hostage by other Countries, especially hostile trading Nations like China, which will do everything within its power to disrespect the American People. We also cannot let them continue to abuse us on Trade, like they have for decades, THOSE DAYS ARE OVER! The Golden Age of America, which includes the upcoming Tax and Regulation Cuts, a substantial amount of which was just approved by the House and Senate, will mean more and better paying Jobs, making products in our Nation, and treating other Countries, in particular China, the same way they have treated us. The bottom line is that our Country will be bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. We will, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
