As it trends.
As Trump’s economic policies and Wall Street volatility continue, more CEOs are speaking out about the impact of tariffs on their companies.
In a recent interview, Apple CEO Tim Cook revealed that Trump’s 145% tariff on Chinese imports could add $900 million to Apple’s costs in Q2 2025, disrupting supply chains and forcing Apple to shift production to India and Vietnam.
As more Americans grapple with the economic consequences of Trump’s presidency, speculation is growing that, if tariffs persist, iPhone prices could skyrocket to $4,000 per unit.
However, analysts argue that Apple is unlikely to pass the full cost onto consumers. Instead, the company may absorb some losses or adjust pricing strategies to remain competitive in the tech market.
With uncertainty looming, Apple faces tough decisions: Will consumers bear the brunt of these tariffs, or will iPhones truly hit the $4,000 mark?
Some economists say time will tell.
