Apple Stock Plunged on Tariff News, But It's Proving to Be Unstoppable in Another Lucrative Area
Shares of Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) are currently 26% below their peak from December last year (as of April 10), a drop that has been spurred by ongoing tariff announcements. As of this writing, there is a huge 145% tariff that's implemented on goods leaving China for the U.S. If this remains in place, it could harm Apple, because 80% of its production is still based in China, according to estimates from Evercore. If the increased costs are eaten by Apple, on the other hand, its profitability will definitely take a hit.
