Apple will announce a $ 100 billion domestic promise on Wednesday that it will focus on bringing more manufacturing to the United States, a White House authority said.
The promise would be a new financial commitment, authority said under the usual anonymity condition. This occurs at a time when President Donald Trump seeks an aggressive agenda of tariffs and commerce to bring part of the production back to the United States.
Apple said in February it would spend $ 500 billion on US investments over the next four years, which will include a giant factory in Texas for artificial intelligence servers, as well as adding about 20,000 research and development jobs across the country.

Apple did not immediately respond to requests for comments.
Trump rates cost Apple $ 800 million in the quarter ended in June and encouraged some customers to buy iPhones in late this year’s spring. Apple has changed the production of products for the United States, looking for iPhones in India and other products, such as Macs and Apple Watches in Vietnam.
Final rates that many Apple products could face remain flow, and many of their products are currently exempt.
