A skilled worker shortage. Slow-moving semiconductor funding. Stonewalled progress on combatting plastic pollution. In some ways, it seems manufacturing is an industry in constant crisis, but that’s not the full picture. In this edition of Market Moves Manufacturing, we're exploring the good and the bad: For every Chinese port crane possibly equipped with spyware, there’s a manufacturer revolutionizing their processes with 5G and upgrading equipment to make workers’ jobs easier. As you read, we hope you’ll be reminded that progress is not without its setbacks.
