On April 5, U.S. President Trump announced the "reciprocal tariff" plan, causing Apple Inc.'s stock price to suffer a sharp decline for two consecutive trading days, resulting in a significant reduction in market capitalization. According to estimates from investment bank Morgan Stanley, the tariffs imposed on China will lead to an annual increase of approximately $8.5 billion in costs for Apple. Reuters cited analysts saying that if Apple passes the entire tariff cost onto consumers, the retail price of the iPhone 16 Pro Max in the U.S. will rise from the current $1,599 to $2,300 (about 16,750 yuan). During Trump's first term, Apple began pushing for supply chain diversification, but the Trump administration's plan to impose high "reciprocal tariffs" on Southeast Asian countries will undoubtedly deal a heavy blow to Apple’s supply chain.
