  > The factory investment charts speak for themselves. Except it doesn't. Factory building isn't the only metric for progress of reshoring manufacturing and graphs do not interpret themselves. In that chart the overall trend of factory building investment remains elevated through the Trump administration over the previous administration even though the fervor of the shale revolution and the subsequent reshoring was cooling off. Why? The factors that I previously mentioned.
