Apple Shares Drop Amid Possible Antitrust Investigation in China
Beijing increases pressure on U.S. tech companies
China’s antitrust regulator is considering an investigation into Apple’s business practices, including fees charged to app developers, Bloomberg reports.
This move could escalate trade tensions between China and the U.S., causing concern among investors.
How Did This Affect Apple’s Stock?
Following the news, Apple shares dropped 2.5% in pre-market trading, after closing 2.1% higher on Tuesday.
Investors fear that a potential investigation could lead to new restrictions on Apple in China, one of its most important markets.
Why Is China Increasing Pressure?
Beijing has already resumed antitrust probes into Google and Nvidia and is considering a new investigation into Intel.
Analysts suggest that these actions are part of China’s broader strategy to gain leverage in trade negotiations with U.S. President Donald Trump, who recently imposed new tariffs on Chinese imports.
What’s Next?
If the investigation moves forward, it could impact Apple’s sales in China and further strain U.S.-China trade relations.
The key question remains: Will China limit its focus to Apple, or will it expand pressure on other American companies?
