<div>Paul, could it be the other way round... that China's power is being underestimated?</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Consider the following "cards" that China has yet to play:</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>1. Apple: a sitting duck that doesn't seem to have a "plan B" for its factories. Numerous other US manufacturers (e.g. shoe/apparel industry) are in the same boat.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>2. US has materially significant reliance on China for supply of rare earth elements (essential for its tech and defense manufacturing industries). Currently, only China can meet US demand.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>3. As a net exporter, china can artificially devalue its currency to offset the impact of US trade sanctions/concessions.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>4. China also holds a significant amount of US bonds that it can fire-dump to try trigger an economic crisis in the US. Might backfire on China though.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>5. It can also dump dollars and switch to barter / other currencies, weakening USD hegemony (e.g. in global commodities markets).</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>6. European manufacturers / brands / traders might not see this as their fight so could pressure their US allied governments to chart their own paths. Example being UK's 5G quagmire. Italy and Germany as well..</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>7. China is a Military power (with nukes) - so the US - and (especially) its European allies - will think twice, or thrice, before leveraging military options.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>8. China could come down hard on us national champions, like Boeing.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>I think China is exercising tactical restraint and playing for time as US gets into election mode.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>If there was ever an incentive for a state actor to hack the US election and put a more "moderate" person in office, China has plenty of it right now. So does Russia - after the sanctions. Interesting times ahead in the cyber realm.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>On relocating factories, it's not that easy (except for low-tech industries). Tech manufacturing relies on supply chain ecosystems, complex tooling and specialized labor that takes time to develop in a sustainable way. By optimizing their supply chain, US manufacturers inadvertently put all their eggs in one basket instead of developing strategic resilience by setting up distributed factories in the global south - especially in Africa.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Hard to blame them though... I don't think anyone could have imagined the present day scenario as a plausible risk! The business case for geographical redundancy just didn't exist. But it does now.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>You can be sure that governments, investors and corporations are following these events very closely and learning fast.. and so it is likely that there will be major global production/supply chain adaptations as global actors implement smart geopolitical risk management strategies.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Africa stands to gain massively ("kuangukia") - especially countries that can quickly get their act together (control corruption, reduce nepotism and build the right strategic teams to tap into these new opportunities via win-win models).</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Good day,</div><div>Patrick.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Patrick A.
