April 8, Fineko/abc.az. Since the beginning of Donald Trump's presidency, total volume of investment commitments by private and foreign companies willing to invest in the U.S. economy has reached $1.9 trillion, ABC.AZ reports, referring to the Financial Times.

The article highlights that the largest announced investments include $500 billion from Apple, $100 billion each from telecommunications holding company SoftBank and semiconductor manufacturer TSMC.

According to Theresa Fortan, a professor at Dartmouth College, a significant part of these investments has been threatened by the escalating tariff conflict between the U.S. and a range of key trading partners, including China, India, the European Union and South Korea. Some analysts, on the contrary, believe that the protectionist policy of the U.S. may accelerate the transfer of production to the country.
