not really, the pandemic boom is over so a lot of manufacturing contraction is happening right now. Product inventories are high and personal debt is also at a high. If the economy took a 180 and boomed again all those chinese factories would be at capacity with US orders. Still no replacement for China yet. Vietnam and India are not there.
