doesn't mean a whole lot in and of itself, but China co's are starting to manufacture in the US

Transport and labor costs in China up, energy costs and supply lines in US low.

This is not a bad thing at all but not a panacea either.

Note the role that anti-dumping laws played in the economics for the China companies.

Point: when you zoom all the way out, for a large country, running a trade surplus for too long means you are doing all the work and getting "nothing" in return. What good are US dollars to you? Your people can't eat it or wear it. Make those lazy Americans ship something to us, so we can get rid of some of those dollars.
