    The US-China trade war is rewiring global trade. As the US seeks to reduce its reliance on China and other geopolitical rivals and start sourcing imports from closer to home, Mexico is starting to shine. Mexico has just overtaken China as the biggest supplier of goods to the United States.

    Look behind the trade numbers. China's trade with US has indeed come down; but China's trade with Vietnam and Mexico has shot up correspondingly. What is happening is that Vietnam and Mexico are acting as middlemen - importing huge amount from China, slapped on the "Made in Vietnam" and "Made in Mexico" labels, and re-export them to the US. So, the US ends up with Chinese products that are relabelled and pays a premium in the process. Clever.

We need a policy reform to improve economic competition, enviromental protection and above all a fiscal reform as there is almost no fiscal space left, and the spending with elderly is increasing and more fiscal spending in infraestructrue, healthcare, and education is desperately needed.

    One thing these videos rarely mention--Mexico already manufactures a lot and most of it is not from Chinese companies but European (particularly German and French), Japanese, and American companies. European and American companies have invested in Mexican manufacturing for over 70 years. At first to manufacture for the domestic market. But after the 1980s, and especially after NAFTA, more investment was made to manufacture for exporting.
    And it hasn't looked back.
    Mexico is the ONLY country in Latin America whose GDP is primarily composed of manufacturing instead of commodities. Even over the larger economy of Brazil. So it's not just repackaged products from China--Chinese companies in Mexico are less than 10% of multinational presence manufacturing in Mexico.
    About water--the city he cited suffering drought, the local government s now building an aqueduct from a large nearby lake that will ensure stable supply.
    Mexico is also the country in Latin America with the largest number of public works projects under construction with over 200 nationally. So it's been improving port, road, railroad, and airport infrastructure. The top half of Mexico already has a lot of infrastructure in terms of interstate highways. The south less, but it's improved. In fact comparing the Mexican port he cited to Los Angeles/Long Beach is a bit unfair, as Los Angeles/Long Beach is not just the largest and busiest port complex in the U.S., but the largest and busiest in the western hemisphere including the rest of North America and Europe (yes busier than Rotterdam). For comparison it's the largest and busiest port outside of East Asia which has the busiest ports in the world.
    Mexico also already has the largest number of engineering graduates in the Americas. Mexico is simply well positioned to become a larger exporter given the number of free trade agreements it has.
    And it's large young labor force still guarantees large productivity increases for years. Given its proximity to the U.S. it's simply a given Mexico will further manufacture for the U.S. and other countries.
    The 2023 figures for foreign direct investment to Mexico are not finalized but it already looks like it is record setting given the announcement of so many companies opening new facilities there. Keep in mind Mexico already manufactures more vehicles than the UK, France, and Spain (and EV manufacturing coming online in 2023). And may have already surpassed Italy as well as perhaps even Germany in 2023. In the last 20 years Mexico has become about a top 5 vehicle manufacturer globally. It also is a top electronics manufacturer and increasingly aerospace and biotech.
    Its economy has been doing better than most around the world (its currency the peso too). In fact of the OECD member of developed and industrialized countries, it had one of the highest GDP growth rates in 2022, 2023, and likely 2024. It's fluctuated between 3-5%. In the last quarter of 2022 it grew at near the same rate as China--China.
    In 2023, while some major G7 developed countries (particularly in Europe) have seen their economies shrinking, Mexico will be among the top OECD and G20 member countries to have seen the most GDP growth. 2024 looks to be the same.

The Americas must work together to solve these issues that bring down crime and the informal economy. This is the only way to make Mexico crow into a full first-world nation.

    • @micheltibon6552
      @micheltibon6552 Před 10 měsíci +2

      That’s why the Dutch are against building huge data centers, like for Facebook, in a Dutch polder Zeewolde near Amsterdam. I think it is the second largest in Europe. They require a lot of fresh water and green produced electricity competing with the local need of citizens and business who also need cheap green electricity. I understand that Facebook wanted a more green label. The fresh water is produced with river water which needs to be treated and filtered against the polution which pops up more and more in our rivers mostly transported in from our neighboring countries. The treatment is expensive and require more tax money. Same for the green produced electricity. It cost tax money which companies like Facebook didn’t contribute too. It is suspected that local politicians were corrupted to require the permits to build there. The Dutch national policy is to locate the data center far away from the populated region to avoid these kind of unfair competition.

    Regarding infrastructure and geography, Mexico is of course closer to the USA which helps in itself, but another thing that surprisingly many economists seem to underestimate is the amount of coastline and cities close to the coastline Mexico has and the value of that. The latter is true also for India, Vietnam, indonesia and some others. It true that China has invested a lot into infrastructure. However China also has to transport it goods further than most of it's competitors. That is a bigger disadvantage, I would argue than many realize.

    It's hard to overstate the value of low transport costs for Mexico. The US is large enough to consume just about everything they make for decades while they build up their own port options. And of course, there is NOTHING stopping them from driving Mexican goods to San Diego or Houston and shipping anything they want from a US port.

    After hiring, firing, and rubbing shoulders with many brilliant engineers in the Midwest manufacturing community I can say that these men (and some women) tend to be cautious and conservative people. They are the ones who are refusing to go and help build manufacturing muscle into a country that overtly calls us their enemy.
    These talented people's mates consider visiting an ever increasingly oppressive and dangerous place to be unwise while the thought of helping them to ultimately thrive and steal their markets is not beneficial to the safety of their children and grandchildren.

      Made in China 2025's goals include increasing the Chinese-domestic content of core materials to 40 percent by 2020 and 70 percent by 2025. To help achieve independence from foreign suppliers, the initiative encourages increased production in high-tech products and services

      That has always been the case minus the China factor. Prior to China's fall, Canada used to be the US's top trading partner. The same can be true of the majority of the Western countries, for example, China is their primary trade partner, its not North Africa or Eurasian countries like Turkey or Israel.

    I'm studying for the CFA exams (I'm a candidate), and while studying and analyzing my economy (Mexico), I find a lot of weaknesses in the financial systems. I believe that a stronger securities market and government institutions would help boost the economy, and in my opinion, we need more finance professionals here, so the benefits of doing legal, high amounts of profit through efficient asset allocations, would outperform the people's need to take another paths to become wealthy. I really hope we don't miss this opportunity, it's our chance to stand out and become stronger than ever!

      It's a supply/demand thing. The places that 'get exploited' are places where the people getting exploited either wouldn't have a job or would have an even worse job. It's why the labor is so cheap, tons of labor with few/no jobs.
      If those places fixed whatever issues were causing their economy to be weak, then these greedy companies wouldn't be able to find such cheap labor anymore, and the exploitation problem would go away or be extremely reduced.

    • @nickl5658

      It is called capitalism. There is such a thing earning a good wage and not be exploited as cheap labor... that is to develop your own technology and become a competitor against the more developed and wealthy nations... like what China did. Becoming a competitor is at the root of all the currently unpleasantness between the US and China.

      Environmental scientist here. This is because in economic decision-making, the fundamental elements are materials, capital investment, and Labor. Each can be substituted for the other. Thus, what you’re wishing from money making private enterprise is not something that is achievable - at least not without exacting a taxing, crushing costly burden upon consumers. Imperialist countries did that and very few still do. The Soviets functioned this way, and what happened to the environment? Destruction! Much worse than capitalism could or does do.
