US President Donald Trump expressed his gratitude to Apple CEO Tim Cook after the company announced plans to invest £395.82 billion ($500 billion) in the United States, creating 20,000 new jobs. The move could strengthen Apple's standing with Trump's 'America First' agenda and potentially help the company avoid tariffs. While one analyst viewed it as a strategic decision, another dismissed it as unrealistic.
Trump was quick to celebrate Apple's announcement, posting on Truth Social that the investment demonstrated the company's 'faith in what we are doing.' The tech giant plans to roll out the investment over the next four years.
