Oh man, so Samsung’s about to drop a big one in the US, all thanks to Trump and his trade talks. Remember when he was all chatty with South Korea over some trade thing? Yeah, that’s when this whole Samsung deal popped up.
Okay, pause—Samsung’s like, up next to throw piles of cash into the US, maybe building some huge plant there. You got Trump playing chess with India, Japan, and yeah, South Korea, too. The plan? Get these massive foreign companies to dump money here. I mean, Apple’s done it, and SoftBank’s done it, and now, guess who’s in line? Samsung. Trump spilled the beans, sorta.
I swear he said something like: “Samsung’s building big stuff here ’cause of the tariffs!” Like, did they announce it, or did he just wake up with the vibe? Anyway, the point was that Trump thinks his tariffs are pushing these companies to go big in the US.
So, Samsung’s gearing up to expand their places in, uh, Austin and Texas. Wait, Austin is in Texas. See what I mean? Anyway—10,000 jobs are on the table. They’ve got this project in Taylor, Texas, which is on track to crank out some next-gen tech by 2027. Big tech names like NVIDIA are apparently excited about this, and I’m not even sure why I know that.
Got to share, I stumbled on this random picture online, and it’s basically showing Samsung doing a mega upgrade of their Taylor spot for like $37 billion. They cut back a bit due to some policy stuff, but still, it’s a lot.
Right, they’re also thinking about moving TV and appliance production elsewhere, maybe to dodge some of these tariffs. So, any grand announcements might hitch a ride with Trump’s next trade chat with South Korea—who knows, maybe next week?
Alright, I’ve rambled enough, but hey, Samsung’s moves in the US are gonna be huge. Let’s see where this goes.
