    Buying stuff from the US? That’ll most likely return though at slightly reduced numbers because it doesn’t hurt to have multiple suppliers.

    Investing in US facilities? Depends: Distribution for consumption, sure, minimal risk so long as the economy is doing ok there’s a large consumer market to access.

    Manufacturing facilities? Much more risky and less likely to return.

      The erratic behavior of the president is seen as a risk from a business standpoint.

      Imagine you need capital to build a factory plant in the US but it’s unclear if this is going to work out. After the thing with Hyundai, no one is going to greenlight this anymore.

      The trust may return after Trump but maybe the next right winger is going to be isolationist too. Was this tariff thing part project 25? It’s so dumb from an econ standpoint, where is this even coming from?
