		</div><p>Apple has announced it will invest more than $500 billion (€477 billion) in the United States over the next four years, including plans to hire 20,000 people and build a new server factory in Texas.</p>
<p>The move comes just days after President Donald Trump said Apple chief executive Tim Cook promised him that the tech giant’s manufacturing would shift from Mexico to the US.</p>
<p>Mr Trump noted the company was doing so to avoid paying tariffs.</p>
<p>That pledge, coupled with Monday’s investment commitment, came as Mr Trump continues to threaten to impose tariffs that could drive up the cost of iPhones made in China.</p>
<p>“We are bullish on the future of American innovation, and we’re proud to build on our long-standing US investments with this 500 billion dollar commitment to our country’s future,” Mr Cook said in a company blog post.</p>
<p>Apple outlined several concrete moves in its announcement, the most significant of which is the construction of a new factory in Houston — slated to open in 2026 — that will produce servers to power Apple Intelligence, its suite of AI features.</p>
<p>The company claims this factory will create “thousands of jobs”.</p>
<p>The announcement is similar to one Apple made in early 2018 — during the first Trump administration — that promised to create 20,000 new jobs as part of a 350 billion dollar spend in the US.</p>
<p>Mr Trump was also mulling a tariff then that could have affected iPhones at the time, but he did not end up targeting those devices during his first administration.</p>
