Love to read this article. Thank you so much for sharing this post with us, It’s great 🙂
The Shock is in the Details
Thank you for the article and the reference to the AU data. A simple review of the data is shocking enough. However, even more information can be gleaned from looking a little deeper. Take Volvo Cars for instance, its owned by Ford. One might expect a higher percentage of USA made components would be used; however, 2 is the highest rating given for Volvo (XC90 Excellence). Look a little deeper you find that Volvo Cars is actually majority owned by Geely Holding Group, a Chinese multinational. Thank god the Corvette stilles rates an 80. Thanks again.
