“It’s tough for Apple to pay tariffs if they’re competing with a very good company that’s not. I said, ‘How good a competitor?’ He said they are a very good competitor. So Samsung is not paying tariffs because they’re based in a different location, mostly South Korea but they’re based in South Korea. And I thought he made a very compelling argument, so I’m thinking about it.”
If they are hurting Chinese but tariffs. they are also hurting their own companies. Most of the products of apple are coming from china. After 15 December there will be 10% tax on the electric products. So be ready to pay 10% extra on apple products.
