The U.S. is Reshoring Chips — But It's Still Missing the Board Designers
What happened
The U.S. government has allocated tens of billions of dollars to reshore chip manufacturing, but a shortage of PCB designers is emerging as a critical bottleneck. This structural supply constraint may limit the efficiency of new domestic production capacity. Traders should monitor this for potential delays in capacity ramp-up.
