“Global supply chain disruptions have exposed the nation’s reliance upon foreign goods and resulted in renewed calls for more goods made in America. When it comes to this year’s infamous computer chip shortage, those calls are already being answered. Texas Instruments and Samsung have both announced plans to develop chip-making plants in Texas, with Intel planning a new chip factory in Arizona. While this is positive news for America’s manufacturing industry, a new industrial revolution is still highly unlikely. Unfortunately, production costs are significantly higher in the U.S. compared to its trading partners, primarily in Asia. For example, in October, export prices (representing domestically made goods) were up 18% annually, compared to a 10.7% increase in import prices (St. Louis Federal Reserve). Nonetheless, the development of new factories will have a positive impact on local industrial real estate markets.” -Adam Abushagur
