Trump says Apple CEO to make large investment in US
US PRESIDENT-ELECT Donald Trump said on Sunday he spoke with Apple CEO Tim Cook.
“He said they’re going to make a massive investment in the United States because of our big election win,” Trump said at a rally ahead of his inauguration on Monday.
The Cupertino, California-based company did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Apple said in 2021 that it has plans to commit US$430 billion in US investments and add 20,000 new jobs across the country over a five-year period. REUTERS
