"These servers will help power Private Cloud Compute and Apple Intelligence, as part of our $600 billion U.S. commitment," Cook wrote. ## **Trump's Push For Onshore Production** Originally slated to open in 2026, Apple's 250,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Houston is now ahead of schedule. The move follows Trump's intensified efforts to bring high-tech production to U.S. soil. Trump has been pushing Apple to assemble its iPhones in the U.S. However, Cook has maintained that full-scale iPhone assembly would remain overseas for now. ## **Apple Balances US Push And China Strategy** Even as Apple accelerates its U.S. production, China remains a key growth market. Earlier this month, Cook traveled to China, pledging to "increase investment" in the country. During his visit, he met with **Li Lecheng**, China's Minister of Industry and Information Technology, who promised to create a favorable environment for global tech firms like Apple. China remains a critical market for Apple, functioning as both a major manufacturing base and contributing roughly 17% to the company's annual revenue. According to Counterpoint Research, Apple's **iPhone 17** series has outperformed the **iPhone 16** lineup by 14% in the first 10 days of sales across China and the U.S. The base model has been a standout driver, with sales nearly doubling in China thanks to upgraded features and competitive pricing. **Price Action:** Apple shares rose 0.44% to close at $259.58 on Thursday, bringing its year-to-date gain to 6.45%, according to Benzinga Pro. **Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings** rank Apple in the 75th percentile for Quality, highlighting robust long-term fundamentals and strong investor confidence.
