Published On Feb 24, 2025, 7:25 AM

Apple has announced a significant investment plan of $500 billion over the next four years in the United States, which includes the creation of 20,000 jobs and the establishment of a new facility in Houston for manufacturing artificial intelligence servers. This move follows a meeting between Apple's CEO Tim Cook and President Trump and aims to bolster U.S. manufacturing in response to tariffs. While Apple will still largely produce its main products overseas, this investment indicates a strategic shift towards increasing domestic capabilities, particularly in AI-related infrastructure.
