Even China doesn't compete on labor costs anymore, otherwise SEA or India would be the world factory now
A surprising amount of cheap clothing manufacturing has moved from China to SEA (South East Asia) and Bangladesh. China is having trouble finding enough cheap labor for their sweatshop sewing machines. I'm not sure why India isn't picking it up, but Bangladesh is the cheapest factory floor for large amounts of horrid shit-tier clothing.

Thailand has picked up a lot of mainstream clothing manufacturing, of decent-enough quality, especially bras and underwear for some reason. Cambodia is gaining steam, and I've heard Laos is next. I still haven't seen any clothes labeled Vietnam.
 
Liberation day might be Trump's most out of touch retarded decision yet. He is going to unite the entire world against America at a time when America can't afford that.

Strategic autonomy is one thing, The mainstream of America was already investing in that. Biden and his chips act and made in America economic plan. He is desperately trying to recreate a fantasy where America is the only show in town when that just isn't true anymore.

If your a random country IDK Norway, why should you work with America over China ? What does America offer you that you can't get anywhere else ?
Your entire argument is basically “people don’t like it when you tell them to stop stealing from you, so you shouldn’t stop them from stealing
 
What happened to all the Project 2025 sperging?
The anti project 2025 people basically split into two factions. Trannies screeching about tranny genocide and boomer types screeching about muh tarrifs and muh big line go down.

Right now the boomers are louder but it's anyone's game at the top of the ninth.

Are we really shocked that a country know for Ladyboys, sex tourism, and cities named Bang Cock and Fuck It is good at making underwear? I feel for Thailand, but they've done it to themselves.
 
Time in the market always beats timing the market
Absolutely. You don't have blackmail material on pedo CEOs, so you won't get hot stock tips. Don't be a sucker and short term trade.

If you need your money out of the market in the next couple years, buy FDIC-insured CDs with terms of 3 yrs or less. Otherwise, stick money in broadly diversified index funds and forget about it. Vanguard bros, check in.
I’m too scared to see how down I am.
Don't even bother looking. It doesn't matter. I'm buying more S&P 500 this week and I don't give a flying fuck what it does for the next year.

Buy and hold, think long term. You're never going to beat the Wall Street big boys in the shorter term because you don't have their (incredibly corrupt) connections. So invest in highly diversified low-cost funds and forget about it.

I have, but I've seen bras from French companies made in Tunisia, though that was also a French colony. I wouldn't be surprised to see more clothes manufacturing in Indonesia.

Buy and hold, think long term.
You can stay retarded longer than they can stay solvent.
