President Donald Trump and China's President Xi Jinping make joint statements at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, Nov. 9, 2017.

President Donald Trump said he could place a 10% tariff on iPhones and laptops imported from China, in an interview with the Wall Street Journal (https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-expects-to-move-ahead-with-boost-on-china-tariffs-1543266545?mod=breakingnews) published Monday. He also said it's "highly unlikely" that he would delay an increase in tariffs just four days before a summit with Chinese President Xi.
Apple (https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/?symbol=AAPL) stock was down nearly 2 percent in after-hours trading.
Trump said he expects he will increase tariffs on $200 billion of Chinese goods to 25%.
