Trump says he will impose 100% tariffs on semiconductors and computer chips
President Donald Trump said he plans to impose 100% tariffs on computer chips and semiconductors, with an exception for companies that have committed to building in the United States."We'll be putting a tariff, approximately 100%, on chips and semiconductors," Trump said at an Oval Office event on Aug. 6 with Apple CEO Tim Cook, who was visiting the White House to announce plans for an additional $100 billion in investment in the U.S. Trump said companies, such as Apple, that have committed to building in the United States would be spared from the tariffs. He did not provide details on when the tariffs would go into effect. "If you're building in the United States of America, there's no charge. Even though you're building and you're not producing yet in terms of the big numbers of jobs… there will be no charge.' The tariffs on computer chips and semiconductors could raise prices on goods such as personal computers, smartphones, electric vehicles, and video game April, Nvidia announced plans to manufacture its AI supercomputers entirely in the United States for the first time, committing to building its advanced chips in Arizona and AI supercomputers in Texas. The White House hailed Nvidia's decision as "the Trump Effect in action.""Onshoring these industries is good for the American worker, good for the American economy, and good for American national security," the White House said in a statement while announcing Nvidia's plans. Trump has currently placed tariffs on various sectors, including 50% on steel, aluminum, and copper, and 25% on imported automobiles. Dozens of countries are also facing country-specific tariffs first announced on April 2, dubbed as Liberation Day by Trump.

Rio Tinto approves US$180 million Norman Creek project, securing long-term future for Amrun bauxite operations on Queensland's Cape York Peninsula
MELBOURNE, Australia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rio Tinto has approved investment of US$180 million and commenced work on the Norman Creek access project at the world-class Amrun bauxite mine on Queensland's Cape York Peninsula. The Norman Creek access project will enable mining of the Norman Creek region of Amrun, which holds approximately half of the currently declared Amrun Ore Reserves of 978 million tonnes. [1] Construction is underway on key infrastructure, including a 19-kilometre haul road, camp accommodation and a communications tower. First production from Norman Creek is targeted for 2027, with full construction completed in 2028. Rio Tinto Pacific Operations Aluminium Managing Director Armando Torres said: 'Norman Creek is another important step in securing the long-term future of our Weipa operations, and the benefits that mining brings to communities in the region, Queensland, and the nation. 'It will maintain jobs in the region through to at least the middle of this century, ensuring continuity for our people and the Weipa community. 'The decision to approve Norman Creek reflects the quality of Western Cape York's world-class bauxite deposits, combined with the strong operational improvements our people are making at Amrun that are bolstering our confidence to invest for the long-term.' In addition to the Norman Creek project, Rio Tinto recently announced it had started early works and a final feasibility study on the Kangwinan project, which includes early works and final engineering studies to increase production capacity at the Amrun bauxite mine. If approved, Kangwinan would increase annual bauxite production capacity from Rio Tinto's Weipa Southern operations, by up to 20 million tonnes, in addition to the current 23 million tonnes, and expand export capacity through the Amrun port. The project was named Kangwinan at the request of Traditional Owners, the Wik Waya people. Production from the Kangwinan project would replace output from the Andoom mine on Cape York and the Gove mine in the Northern Territory, which are both expected to close toward the end of the current decade. First output from the Kangwinan project could be as early as 2029. The Norman Creek investment is expected to be classified as replacement capital and has been factored into the Group's capital guidance. [1] These Ore Reserves were reported in accordance with the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves, 2012 Edition (JORC Code) and the ASX Listing Rules in a release to the ASX dated 19 February 2025 titled 'Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves updates: supporting information and Table 1 checklists' (Table 1 release) which is available at The Amrun Ore Reserves comprise 466 Mt of Proved Ore Reserves @ 54.6% Al 2 O 3 and 8.8% SiO 2 and 512 Mt of Probable Ore Reserves @ 54.3% Al 2 O 3 and 9.1% SiO 2 for a total of 978 Mt @ 54.4% Al 2 O 3 and 9.0% SiO 2. The Competent Person responsible for the information in the Table 1 release that relates to Amrun Ore Reserves is William Saba who is a Member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (MAusIMM). Rio Tinto confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the Table 1 release, that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the 2024 Annual Report continue to apply and have not materially changed, and that the form and context in which the Competent Person's findings are presented have not been materially modified. Ore Reserves are reported on a 100% basis

Tim Cook just got what he wanted
Tim Cook gifted President Donald Trump an American-made glass engraving at the White House today — but it was the Apple CEO who walked away with the real prize. On Wednesday, Cook presented Trump with an inscribed piece of Apple -produced glass made in Kentucky that sits upon a 24k gold base made in Utah to celebrate the tech giant's "American Manufacturing Program." "This glass comes off the Corning line, engraved for President Trump," Cook told reporters during a ceremony in the Oval Office. "It is a unique unit of one." Cook and Apple aren't walking away empty-handed. Companies that "are building in the United States," like Apple, won't be subject to a forthcoming 100% tariff on imports of semiconductors and chips, Trump said. "The good news for companies like Apple is if you're building in the United States or have committed to build, without question, in the United States, there will be no charge," Trump said. Cook said the gift was designed by a former US Marine Corps. Corporal who now works for Apple. Cook's signature is also etched into the gift. Apple announced that it is adding an additional $100 billion to its existing pledge to spend $500 billion in the US over the next four years. As part of its investment, Cook said that soon, 100% of all cover glass for all iPhones and Apple Watches will be manufactured in the US. It is still a far cry from Trump's hope of a made-in-the-USA iPhone. When a reporter pressed Cook on the possibility of an American-made iPhone, Trump echoed Cook's view that Apple already makes many of the popular smartphone's components in the US. "We've been talking about it, and the whole thing is set up in other places, and it's been there for a long time, so in terms of the cost and all," Trump said. "But I think we may incentivize him enough that one day he'll be bringing that." While it's a win for Cook, Apple isn't fully in the clear from the impact of Trump's tariffs. It remains uncertain if the tech giant will be subject to the president's stiffer tariffs on India, which are aimed at punishing the nation for continuing to buy Russian oil. Cook said during Apple's recent earnings call that the company's financial hit from tariffs last quarter was $800 million. Apple said those costs are likely to balloon to $1.1 billion in the September quarter. The Apple CEO has come bearing gifts before. In Trump's final financial disclosure before leaving the White House in 2021, the president reported receiving a $5,999 MacBook Pro computer. It's also not the first time Cook's savvy relationship-building skills have earned the president's praise. In 2019, Trump said Cook was the only tech executive who calls him directly, and the Apple CEO successfully landed carve-outs for some of Apple's products during the tariffs implemented during Trump's first term.
