Some of that has to be offset by shipping, importing fees, etc. But I do think the end goal is to get Apple/Nvidia/etc back on US soil manufacturing wise.

>shipping, importing fees
Don't these chips still need to be sent to China for assembly by Foxconn? If anything this will increase costs even more and seems like import fees could potentially be even higher due to the current US-China trade war. Unless there is a plan to assemble everything in the US/Mexico as well. But then the costs would be way higher to assemble outside of China: certainly in US but probably also in Mexico, and I don't think they have any factories there.
