The Taiwanese supplier of ApplePegatron, has warned that stores in the United States could face «empty shelves»In the next two months due to the uncertainty generated by the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration.
This can suppose a problem, not only for residents in this country, but globally, since Apple remember that it is based in the United States, and its greatest profits and sales come from there, so they could face a difficult and dangerous situation.
Lack of stock in the Apple Store for summer
Although everything could change, due to Trump's tariffs and their latest decisions, if there are no news in the coming months, Apple suppliers warn that there is likely to have a stock problem in certain productsand that we talk about no important presentations nearby, and that the iPhone 17 will not leave until September.
Th Tung, president of Pequeatron, commented that the constant changes in tariffs are generating a lot of confusion among retailers in the US, which has complicated decision -making in the supply chain.
Although some tariffs aimed at countries where Pequeatron have manufacturing bases, such as Vietnam, Indonesia and India, still recently paused, still a 10% tax remains in force On almost all imported goods to the USA Tung emphasized that Pequeatron will not modify his long -term manufacturing plans based on short -term tariff fluctuations, which can give some hope that all this does not end up producing.
For now we will have to wait, and everything could be solved before it occurs, however, it is an option, because the prices, with those taxes, would not be the same, and Apple would only have two options, or assume losses, or have an impact on users, something that looks very bad, since raising the price of a product months after launching it is not something that people are approved.
From Trump's first mandate, Apple has been moving part of its production outside of Chinaand lately it has accelerated its plans to establish a solid manufacturing base of the iPhone in India, with the idea of starting there devices for the US market from the end of 2026, although knowing Donald Trump, he could even load everything applying tariffs similar to all Asia and forcing Apple and other companies to build and produce in his own country, something that the company of Tim Cook has considered the company moment, and that would need at least a decade for it.
In Spain a lack of stock is not expected, although everything could have an impact, so we will be aware of the next news, as well as the results of the company, which occur this week, and they could give us indications of whether there will be price increases, lack of stock, etc. And you, what do you think of all this? Do you think Trump is throwing stones on his own country? Leave us a comment with your opinion.
