@JustinOnTheRoad So, did they make the investment? It’s been more than 2 years since they made the announcement.
Have they since stopped manufacturing those wafer things in China, Ireland and Israel? Have they stopped doing their testing in Malaysia, China, Costa Rica and Vietnam?
I’m just curious person so I ask questions.

It appears as though this 2017 announcement was for the completion of a factory they’d already started building in 2011. They deferred usage for several years, because they were able to leverage an existing factory in Arizona. This sounds like the course of a normal business plan that had nothing to do with who was sitting in the White House.

"It is a factory that we originally started building in 2011, aiming for our 14-nanometer technology. Then, based on a number of manufacturing efficiencies, we were able to defer using Fab 42 because we were able to fit the 14nm capacity into our existing factory on the Arizona site."
