Trump: Move to the US to avoid tariffs.

Tech companies: India it is!

[–] turnip@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago

Which has the highest tariffs.

They literally have manufacturing facilities in the US as well due to the IBM acquisition. This article seems to gloss over the reality of them being globally diverse for a while.

HP and Dell manufacture more in PRC.

Yeah, there’s no evidence that this is because of tariffs. Companies don’t make big moves like this after only a week of changes.

What will happen is that the Chinese government will just take over manufacturing and plants and continue to make the same products under a Chinese name, the same way Russia rebranded a lot of companies that left then when the war started.

under a Chinese name

Lenovo is already a Chinese company. They're just moving production for US bound products somewhere else. I guarantee most of their production will still be in China.
