That fueled a strict backlash from those countries and many companies like Microsoft and Oracle that worried that that system would hurt their business. Our reporting indicates that the Trump administration is considering getting rid of that tiered system in favor of a series of bilateral country-by-country agreements and will now go about negotiating those.

They're all driven by these globally interconnected supply chains that have developed over many, many years and decades. So trying to unwind them in a short period of time just isn't feasible. In many cases, there are labor shortages and high-skilled labor shortages. So getting the talent that you need to do this type of work is often difficult.

very difficult, whether you're looking in the tech sector, healthcare, other industries. And we're really dependent still on countries like China for so many raw materials and chemicals and basic things like screws. So even though the president says this is going to boost U.S. manufacturing and create all these jobs, there are a lot of reasons why that might not be the case in the short term.

Das ist die enorme Frage, die unbeantwortet ist. Am Sonntag hat der PrĂ€sident hauptsĂ€chlich getwittert, welche KryptowĂ€hrungen in die Reserve eingefĂŒhrt werden wĂŒrden. Aber er hat nicht spezifiziert, ob es neue VerkĂ€ufe geben wĂŒrde, oder ob es nur KryptowĂ€hrungen geben wĂŒrde, die bereits von Kriminellen besiegt wurden. Und das sind zwei sehr verschiedene Dinge, offensichtlich.
