So bold -- so brave...

The moves Tim will make to "avoid tariffs and taxes worldwide"
So inspiring..

/s

I know you are being sarcastic, but it is also undeniable that Tim Cook’s ability to optimize supply chains and straddle the relationships between the governments of United States and China has been his strongest attribute as CEO thus far.

If there’s ever been a better time to demonstrate that he deserves every dollar of his paycheck, now will be the time to show it.

And see it over the coming weeks and months, I believe we shall.
 
The headline “Apple Airlifted Premium Devices to US to Beat Tariff Deadline” reveals who truly bears the cost of Trump’s tariffs, doesn’t it? The customs tax is paid by the importer at the border, not at the port of departure. Additionally, the port of departure may impose an export tax if that country chooses, which would also impact the US consumer.
 
And Mr. Trump just cancelled the tariffs for Smartphones and other electronic devices - including China. So far for a logic strategy… Others call it chaos.

Guess why: These gadgets could not be sold in the U.S. anymore at that price
