17 Billion on supply chain sounds like BS.
All the material comes from offshore, so why spend the money to ship it all here then manufacture and assemble unless labor for that is about to ve cheaper in the US.
Im not sure I understand. Are you saying they take say a chip made on a 20nm process and somehow turn that chip into a 7nm chip?
Also, remanufacturing is still costly and much cheaper to be done elsewhere.
Semiconductor Company's have Teams that do nothing but convert existing designs that are popular/useful from one nm process to the next smaller nm process, so that that design can be made in an upgraded facility. Then remodel the old nm facility to what ever the next gen process is.
