Trump's 100% tariff likely to shift more Taiwan's semiconductor industry to US - The Economic Times
Economic Times

Medial
Former President Trump’s proposed 100% tariff on semiconductor imports may catalyze a shift in Taiwan’s chip production to the U.S., impacting costs and consumer prices. While TSMC, the leading contract chipmaker, might sidestep these tariffs due to substantial U.S. investments, others may face challenges. This policy combines tax incentives for U.S. production with punitive tariffs on imports, potentially altering global semiconductor landscape and prompting more Taiwanese investments in the U.S.

India's shrimp exports, a vital component of its seafood sector, have a significant market in the US, making this tariff particularly impactful. The tariff also influences Indian textile exports to the US.

President Trump's tariff changes have impacted India's trade negotiations with the U.S. Despite facing a 26% tariff, India initially saw an opportunity due to higher tariffs on China and other Asian countries.

Trump's suggestion for Apple to produce in the U.S. adds uncertainty, yet Indian officials believe this may be a bargaining tactic rather than a definitive threat to their growing manufacturing edge.
