Anyone else find it odd that all these headlines states only how much these companies are going to spend on manufacturing, but none of them say what they're actually going to be making?
Is it really that odd? Its a way for companies to prevent getting hit by a Trump tweet that deplores them for not hiring enough Americans. So now, everyone wants to portray any US investment they make, any US workers they hire, loudly and with big but vague/unspecific numbers.
Exactly this, which is also why every single automaker now publicly announces their retooling costs and shift changes for new model years. "We're spending $4B to improve manufacturing and hiring 10,000 workers" is a politically friendly headline even if you've done the same thing every year for the past few decades.
