Link: Apple no longer dominates global supply chains.

Artificial intelligence companies are aggressively purchasing components like chips and specialized glass fiber, challenging Apple's dominant position.

These companies now often outbid Apple, disrupting the market dynamics.

Suppliers who once prioritized Apple's needs are using this shift to demand higher prices from the tech giant.

This change is giving component suppliers new leverage in negotiations.

As a result, Apple may face increased costs and supply chain challenges.

The evolving competitive landscape is compelling Apple to adapt its strategies. #
