As I said, your logic to my original post was inane, for the reason I gave. Your logic this time round in contrast is at least understandable in that if it is true that the US cannot shift the supply chain back, then what I said would be wrong.
But the US can shift its supply chain back onshore if it wants. This would be entirely within its power to do so. The problem for the US is that by doing so it will end up with a closed economy because it will be producing poor quality expensive products that are uncompetitive against products produced elsewhere in the world so no other countries will buy its goods. Only Americans would buy made in America because they have no other choice as their government charges punitive tariffs on all imports.
It seems obvious that this would be a stupid thing to do in fact anyone who studied economics can tell you this. But it is gradually happening in the US, and you can see this most clearly in the clean energy and EV sectors. In the EV space for instance it is increasingly clear that America is heading to a future where only cars manufactured in the US will be driven. And these cars will be more expensive and lower quality than what is made overseas. And no one outside the US will buy these cars. The trade off is that these cars will be made in America and hence provide jobs to Americans. A fair trade off? Everyone should decide for themselves. But it is very much in the US government' s ability to effect.

I don' t understand your so-called logic.
Regarding the topic of shift supply chain back ,what I' m talking about is Ability, not change.
It has not enough ability and inability to do it.

Your logic that if something could have happened it would already have done so is inane. If it were true then nothing would ever change.

There seems to be no correlation.If US could do this,it would have done it long ago.

Their strategy of buying more logistics properties in south east asia is short sighted I think. The US irrespective of whoever wins the election (but especially Trump) is going to be raising tariffs on everyone including ASEAN in order to shift supply chains back home. MLT should be focusing on buying more US logistics properties instead.
Ascending triangle pattern?
