China manufacturers the chip of tesla
Tesla is sppeding to dominating the car industry
but it may have reached a bit of a roadblock increased tariffs cause economic harm to tesla through the increase of costs and impact of profitability due to the complexity of the model 3 car computer and the demanding timelines necessary for tesla's exponential growth tesla is unable to find another manufacturer to meet our requirements tesla has filed a lawsuit against the trump administration why well key components the company uses namely the computer chips are made in china and as luck would have it these parts are subject to 25 tariffs as part of trump's tough on china strategy elon musk says it's a car crash and the tariffs are arbitrary capricious and an abuse of discretion probably not what a president wants to hear from one of his country's greatest minds who he's fangirled over in the past he's one of our great geniuses and we have to protect our genius and with musk facing losses probably not what trump had in mind when he promised to make america great again i'm protecting our workers on protecting our companies the trade war hurts them doesn't hurt us with a hole in his pocket now musk is asking for a refund with interest of course on all the tax he's already had to pay and tesla's not the only company spinning out other big hitters like mercedes ford and volvo have also decided to sue trump and co the irony of all this is that while these tariffs are quite literally driving away business for americans and europeans for beijing they've been a road to diversification and increased profit the trade friction between china and the us puts pressure on companies whose main market is the us although the value of exports to the us has decreased companies have been exploring multiple markets the result is remarkable and has enlarged the non-us market while the u.s market for chinese products has shrunk so china's overall exports keep growing bitter words no doubt for president trump who four years ago said the cards were in american hands we have the cards don't forget we're like the piggy bank that's being robbed we can't continue to allow china to rape our country and that's what they're doing it's the greatest theft in the history of the world well four years on the u.s trade deficit with china is almost 10 percent more than when trump said those words and four years on it looks like it's now tester and co who are the ones looking into their banks and seeing empty words not those gold coins they were promised you.
