Think again.

So what? Does one data point make the case for a sustained long term trend?

It's a single data point because I'm not going to do your research for you.

It's something that happened recently and was mentioned on HN, that's why I provided the courtesy of posting that for you.

Yes, nor am I going to do your research either. The fallacy of the data point is still a thing.

I can tell you that Caterpillar has planned to move almost all production out of China with the majority coming back to the US. They're even spinning up casting plants that have been shuttered for over a decade because of this.
