52. Top of Mind: Why are US companies bringing manufacturing back to America? Part 1

The past few years have completely upended the global supply chain. This, along with many other factors, is causing more and more companies to bring manufacturing back to America. But is this a short-term trend, or a fundamental shift in manufacturing? In this episode, Bob Fraser and Ben Fraser take a look at some of the factors that are driving businesses to repatriate their production and offer insights on why America is once again becoming a viable place to manufacture goods. They also explore the key benefits and opportunities and discuss how investors can take advantage of the growing trend.
