But when it comes to de-risking, there is now the risk it's one more race where we risk falling behind to China.

On multiple occasions, we've witnessed foreign companies get this calculus and timing wrong. They get addicted to the profits. They get arrogant and overconfident. They fail to see a need to evaluate the economic and political environment on a constant basis.
