I guess you missed the part about tariffs. Do you think UTC would move that plant to Mexico with a standing 20% duty on every product shipped into the USA?

Honestly? Yes, I do. I think they will pass the cost on to consumers. Because if you look at it either their competition will also be manufacturing their products abroad, and will be subject to the same tariff, or they will be raising the prices of their U.S. made products about 20% because after all they can do that and still compete with UTC products.

Besides, how do you tariff all those non-manufacturing jobs back to the U.S.?
