The technological industry may not be immune to new prices, according to the American secretary for trade Howard Luxe.
The Trump administration announced on Friday evening that consumer electronics such as laptops and smartphones would be exempt from the prices that it revealed earlier this month. (While Trump delayed many of these prices This week, he left a reference rate of 10% in place and also allowed an additional 125% rate on Chinese products.)
Exemptions reports noted that technological products could still be affected by the targeted prices to come, with semiconductors being in particular a meticulous examination.
Lunick did it more explicit Sunday morning for an interview With the program ABC “this week”, saying that Trump manufactures these products “exempt from reciprocal prices” but include them in “the prices of semiconductors, which are probably arriving in a month or two”.
“All of these products will go under semiconductors, and they will have a special type of price to ensure that these products are relocated,” said Lunick. “We must have semiconductors, we must have fleas and we must have flat panels – we must have these things in America manufactured.”
Pressed if the prices will mean higher prices for American consumers, Lunick said: “I don’t think so”, and once again stressed: “I think the idea is that we can make in America.” (Others said Vision of Lutnick that “the army of millions and millions of human beings screwing in small screws to make iPhones, this kind of thing will come to America”, is a fantasy.)
Trump himself was Asked about the prices of semiconductors This weekend, and he said, “I’m going to give you this answer on Monday.”
