Summary of Key Points from the Conference Call Industry Overview - The discussion revolves around the trends of reshoring and friendshoring in the context of global supply chains, particularly focusing on the impact of tariffs and geopolitical factors on manufacturing decisions [1][11][12]. Core Insights and Arguments - **Reshoring Trends**: Reshoring has created 2 million jobs in the US over the last 15 years, with a peak of 350,000 jobs in 2022. However, this trend has slowed down since then, particularly in capital-intensive sectors like electronics and transportation, which accounted for 70% of job creation [2][26]. - **Future Expectations**: Only 20% of analysts expect significant reshoring, while 40% anticipate mild relocation to the US, particularly in capital-intensive sectors. Sectors expected to see reshoring include metals & mining and biotechnology [3][39]. - **Labor Concerns**: The availability of qualified labor is a significant concern for reshoring, especially in labor-intensive sectors. More than 50% of analysts indicate that the lack of qualified labor at competitive costs is a barrier [4][50][68]. - **Near/Friendshoring**: There is a growing trend towards near/friendshoring, with analysts identifying Vietnam, Mexico, India, and Thailand as key beneficiaries. This shift is driven by geopolitical risk management rather than cost efficiency [5][46][49]. - **Sector-Specific Impacts**: Tariffs are expected to have sector-specific impacts, with price increases anticipated in industrials and manufacturing, while margin compression is more likely in consumer goods and services [6][82]. Additional Important Insights - **Geopolitical Factors**: The shift from globalization to geo-fragmentation reflects a change in how companies allocate capital, prioritizing safety over cost [13][24]. - **Tariff Implications**: The imposition of tariffs is seen as a tool for strategic decoupling from China, with varying impacts across sectors. For instance, the auto sector has been more affected than pharmaceuticals [23][35]. - **Investment Strategies**: Analysts suggest that while tariffs may drive some reshoring, the overall economic feasibility remains questionable, particularly given the high costs associated with US labor and the potential for tariff reversibility [100][138]. - **Automation Trends**: The expectation is that any reshoring will likely involve increased automation, as labor costs in the US are significantly higher than in developing countries [118][119]. Conclusion - The reshoring and friendshoring trends are complex and influenced by a multitude of factors, including tariffs, labor availability, and geopolitical considerations. While there is some optimism for modest reshoring, significant barriers remain, particularly in labor-intensive sectors. The focus is shifting towards strategic relocation to emerging markets as companies navigate the evolving landscape of global trade [46][49][50].

在越企业迎来春天？ 越南在巨大的内外压力下启动了变革。 4月2日，越南也一起挨了关税大棒，特朗普宣布对越南加征关税至46%。4月4日，越南当即表示愿意对 美"0关税"进行谈判。 越南经济增长高度依赖出口和外资，出口占GDP的85%以上——去年，越南对美国贸易顺差超1230亿美 元。而每年引进的外资也是制造业产能扩张的最大动力。尽管快速与美国协商，但关税与贸易波动已经 对越南制造业乃至整体经济产生了明显的负面影响。 越南跨境的至暗时刻 在关税阴影下，越南制造业4月份的产出、订单、就业和采购已经出现大幅下降，越南制造业采购经理 人指数 (PMI）从50.5大幅下滑至45.6，制造业健康度明显下滑，而由于担心关税对未来产出的进一步影 响，企业信心跌至44个月来的最低点。而且下降速度近两年来最快。商业信心也跌至2021年8月以来的 最低水平。 而越南刚刚在今年2月份制定了8%的GDP增长目标，但在关税影响下，越南第一季度的经济增速已从去 年第四季度的7.55%放缓至6.93%。不过，越南政府重申，尽管面临诸多挑战，但今年的经济增长目标 保持不变。 除了关税压力，越南经济本身也存在问题。 越南目前的经济规模与体量不足， ...

Core Insights - **Tariff Suspension Impact**: The 90-day suspension of reciprocal tariffs between the US and China has led to a temporary calm in the market, although macro uncertainties remain high [1][3]. - **Micro-Level Focus**: Given the current market conditions, it is deemed more appropriate to concentrate on micro-level factors rather than macroeconomic trends [1][3]. - **Company Guidance Analysis**: Among 303 companies analyzed, 60 reflected tariff impacts in their guidance, 57 did not, and 175 made no mention of tariffs. This indicates a significant number of companies are either unaware or unaffected by tariff implications [6][8]. - **Market Reaction to Guidance**: Stocks reacted strongly to guidance headlines, suggesting that the detailed impacts of tariffs may not be fully priced into the market [6][14]. - **Share Buybacks**: Record levels of share buybacks were noted, with ¥18.7 trillion authorized in FY24 and over ¥3.8 trillion in April 2025 alone. However, the market response to these buybacks has been muted, primarily due to the influence of large-cap stocks on the TOPIX index [27][28]. Additional Important Points - **Sector Rotation**: There has been a noted shift away from defensive sectors from April to May, although the market remains fluid [6][27]. - **Analyst Dispersion**: The report highlights that stocks with low analyst dispersion have been favored, indicating a preference for stability in uncertain times [37][39]. - **Performance Metrics**: Companies that did not account for tariff effects in their guidance have shown higher returns immediately after earnings announcements compared to those that did [13][14]. - **Vulnerability of Non-Reflective Companies**: Companies that did not reflect tariff impacts may face vulnerabilities as the effects become more apparent in the future [14][19]. Conclusion - The analysis emphasizes the importance of understanding both micro-level factors and the broader market context, particularly in light of ongoing geopolitical tensions and their potential impacts on corporate performance and stock valuations. The focus on share buybacks and analyst dispersion provides additional layers of insight into market dynamics and investor behavior.
