> prod outage

Depends on if the outage impacts the entire industry/sector or just his company. If the former, it's relatively fine because stock performance is going to be similar to competitors and investors won't be asking too many questions. Might be some wailing and gnashing of teeth but not too much action in the form of spending money on the problem.

I don't think many companies in my estimation took too many lessons from the COVID supply chain crises. If they did, the lesson was to simply outwait things. Everyone was having similar problems and you didn't be the single one of your sector to have re-shored production at triple the expense while your competitors simply spun back up once the Chinese factories got back on-line.

If it was such a compelling thing that was already happening we'd be seeing a lot more 'low value base component' manufacturing coming back, such as electronic components like resistors. So far from my basic understanding of the subject it's all the stuff quite high up the value chain instead. At best some things got near-sourced or moved around, with the raw inputs seemingly still coming from China in the end either way.

It would certainly be interesting to find some actual data here though.
