据知情人士透露，苹果(AAPL.US)正在游说印度政府修改其所得税法，以确保其向合作制造商提供的高 端iPhone生产设备的所有权免于被征税。知情人士指出，这一税务问题已成为苹果未来在印扩张的一个 障碍。 此举正值苹果加速布局印度、寻求实现中国以外供应链多元化的关键时期。市场研究机构Counterpoint 的数据显示，自2022年以来，iPhone在印度市场的份额已翻倍至8%。尽管中国仍占据全球iPhone出货量 的75%，但印度的占比同期增长三倍，达到25%。 作为全球第二大移动市场，印度对苹果具有重要战略意义。目前，苹果的合约制造商富士康与塔塔集团 已投资数十亿美元，在印开设了5家工厂。但在这些投资中，有相当一部分用于采购昂贵的iPhone组装 设备。 税务专家表示，印度1961年颁布的税法对外国企业在印设备所有权有明确规定，若苹果不推动印度政府 修改该法规，同时调整自身业务模式，可能将面临数十亿美元的额外税负。 在供应链布局成熟的中国，苹果的操作模式完全不同。苹果负责采购iPhone生产设备并交付给合约制造 商，即便设备所有权归苹果所有，也无需为此缴税。 但印度的情况截然相反。一位印度政府高级官员及两 ...

目前，苹果仍在中国生产其大部分智能手机，但受到美国关税等因素影响，该公司正加快脚步，通过与 塔塔电子和富士康等代工厂商合作，加快在印度建立产能。 市场研究机构Counterpoint Research联合创始人兼副总裁尼尔·沙阿(Neil Shah)称，目前富士康仍占据印 度iPhone总出货量的三分之二，塔塔电子负责剩余三分之一。但他预计，随着塔塔电子制造规模的扩 大，这一市场份额格局可能很快发生改变。 凤凰网科技讯 北京时间10月14日，据CNBC报道，尽管苹果公司一直希望尽快在印度扩大iPhone生产， 但是印度目前的制造能力难以跟上，而且建立本土供应商生态系统也是一个漫长的过程，需要耗费数年 时间。 于是，苹果印度本土代工商开始采用收购策略来扩大制造能力。两位知情人士称，印度塔塔集团旗下负 责iPhone生产的塔塔电子，已经以接近1亿美元的价格收购了中国iPhone供应商江苏杰士德精密工业的 印度业务。据知情人士透露，这笔交易已于今年8月完成，汇丰银行和印度HDFC银行担任交易顾问。 杰士德精密自2008年以来一直是苹果的供应商。该公司向全球最大苹果产品组装商富士康提供工业设 备，例如用于精密切割和制 ...

来源：BT财经数据通 美国中西部农田里，金黄的大豆即将迎来收获。然而，与丰收景象形成鲜明对比的是，当地豆农脸上难掩焦虑。 美国大豆协会发出警告：自2025年5月以来，中国——这个曾经最大的买家，再也没有从美国采购一粒大豆。这一突如其来的"断单"让美国大豆市 场陷入困境，库存满仓、价格下跌，农民面临"丰产不丰收"的窘境。为何中国的大豆消费能力如此之强，以至于其采购动向足以牵动全球农业市 场的神经？ 要理解中国大豆消费的"巨无霸"地位，要看中国的强大消费能力，并非源于对大豆本身的直接食用，而是源于其作为现代食品工业和畜牧业基石 的不可替代作用。 中国是全球最大的大豆消费国和进口国。尽管2025年5月后中国暂停从美国采购，但这并不意味着中国减少了大豆消费。恰恰相反，数据显示，中 国每年的大豆消费量超过1.2亿吨，而国内产量仅约2000万吨，这意味着超过80%的大豆依赖进口。如此巨大的缺口，使得中国在全球大豆贸易中 占据绝对主导地位。 在2024年，中国从美国进口了价值126.4亿美元的大豆，占美国大豆出口总额的一半以上。这一数字直观地说明了中国市场对美国农业的"命脉"作 用。中国不仅是美国大豆的最大买家，也是巴西、 ...

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the implications of China's new export controls on rare earth elements, particularly in the semiconductor industry, highlighting the potential risks and adjustments that companies may need to make in response to these regulations [2][3]. Group 1: Impact on Semiconductor Industry - The new export controls from China are the strictest to date, targeting rare earth minerals essential for semiconductor production, such as precision lasers and magnets [2]. - China dominates the global supply of rare earth elements, with over 90% of the mining and processing of critical elements like dysprosium, terbium, and gadolinium occurring within its borders [2]. - Companies like ASML, a leading supplier of chip lithography machines, are assessing the potential disruptions, as their machines rely on rare earth magnets, which could lead to price increases if supply is restricted [2][3]. Group 2: Broader Implications - Rare earth elements are crucial not only for semiconductors but also for electric vehicles, wind power, and defense sectors, indicating a widespread impact across various industries [3]. - Major chip manufacturers, including Intel, TSMC, and Samsung, rely on ASML's equipment, and any disruption in rare earth supply could affect the entire value chain from chemicals to tool manufacturing [3]. - The U.S. government is reviewing the implications of these new regulations, which were implemented suddenly to control global technology supply, prompting companies to reassess their dependencies on Chinese rare earths [3].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China, particularly focusing on the implications of new tariffs and export controls on the energy storage battery market, which could significantly increase costs and impact supply chains [2][4][14]. Group 1: Tariff Implications - Starting November 1, the U.S. will impose a 100% tariff on China, with total tariffs on energy storage batteries potentially exceeding 158.4% by January 2026 due to existing tariffs [2][4]. - The new tariff policy could lead to an estimated $500 million in tariff costs for energy storage projects if implemented [10].
