Governments have a history of favoring and funding their local industries while interfering in international ones (See several examples here).</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />But what’s unprecedented about the current scenario is this - its scale. This includes the scale of foreign funds and foreign ambition in play: China is looking to spend over <a href="https://www.mobileworldlive.com/asia/asia-news/china-earmarks-100b-to-boost-share-of-global-chip-market/">$100B to be #1 in semiconductors</a>.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Few industries are as foundational to our economy and superpower status as semiconductors. As per the report,</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br /><br /><span class="quote-left">Progress in semiconductors has opened up new frontiers for devices and services that use them, creating new businesses and industries, and bringing massive benefits to American workers and consumers as well as to the global economy. Cutting-edge semiconductor technology is also critical to defense systems and U.S. military strength, and the pervasiveness of semiconductors makes their integrity important to mitigating cybersecurity risk.</span><br /><br /></span><br /><span style="color: #000000;">Not wanting to lose on leadership in semiconductors, the panel's report then goes on to say that the U.S. government should intervene and suggests necessary steps to address this threat.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />While it is still early to know if the intervention will work, one only needs to look at history to know if similar interventions have worked in the past.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Let’s take one example.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />In 1980, another US industry – automotive - was under threat from another foreign nation - Japan. Specifically, cheaper and fuel-efficient Japanese cars were flooding the U.S. markets and eroding U.S. auto leadership.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />The Governments response back then? Managed trade: a Voluntary Export Restraint (VER) that capped the number of vehicles Japan could send to US.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />The intervention worked.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Because Japan could only send so many cars to the U.S., the local U.S. auto industry was once again needed to meet the overall U.S. demand.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />The U.S. auto industry was saved. And life was good again.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />But only for a bit.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Eventually, the Japanese firms circumvented the VER by setting up plants right in the middle of US. Once here, they formed alliances with US car makers. This also marked the beginning of what is now commonplace – a Japanese car showroom or plant in almost every major US city. (You can get more historic details of VER here)</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />To be clear though, there are also several differences between the 1980s scenario and today’s. For starters, semiconductor and auto are two very different industries - the former makes chips; the latter, cars. China and Japan are two obviously widely different countries. And the overall global trade environment is very different too – it is less protectionist now than it was in 1980s.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Despite these differences though, history is repeating in a couple of interesting ways:</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />1. Chinese chip makers are looking to enter the US similar to how the Japanese auto makers did back then. See<a href="https://www.eetimes.com/document.asp?doc_id=1331580&lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_pulse_read%3BBAKi%2BQC6SV%2BNdw8il5pIDg%3D%3D"> here</a> and<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/02/business/dealbook/china-aixtron-obama-cfius.html?_r=0&lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_pulse_read%3BBAKi%2BQC6SV%2BNdw8il5pIDg%3D%3D"> here</a> (It is also likely one of the factors driving local consolidation like the ones I covered earlier and the latest Broadcom bid).</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />2. The US government has started to push back on these Chinese chip makers just like it did with Japanese auto makers. See <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/AC/China-faces-resistance-in-acquisition-of-foreign-chipmakers?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_pulse_read%3BBAKi%2BQC6SV%2BNdw8il5pIDg%3D%3D">here</a>.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />That said, it is still early days to conclude that history is repeating in entirety but these similarities are noteworthy for sure, making it only natural to wonder about the results of prior government interventions.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Specifically, what effect did prior interventions have, and why? Were they effective? And more importantly, what does it mean for the semiconductor industry?</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Back then, the government intervention:</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />a. <strong>Saved auto jobs</strong> – Since less cars were coming into U.S., the U.S. demand had to be met by local production, thereby requiring (and saving) local auto jobs.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />b. <strong>Reduced competition</strong> – Because US and Japanese firms formed alliances, it reduced competition.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />c. <strong>Increased prices</strong> – Because there was less competition, prices of cars increased (as prices typically increase when competition reduces)</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Was the intervention effective?</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />It depends on who you ask. Yes, if you ask the U.S. auto employees whose jobs / communities were saved. No, if you ask the consumer who had to pay extra to buy a car.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />But broader <a href="http://www.copenhagenconsensus.com/sites/default/files/cp-tradefinished.pdf?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_pulse_read%3BBAKi%2BQC6SV%2BNdw8il5pIDg%3D%3D">macro-economic research indicates</a> that interventions like these (that protect local industries) help in the short term by saving jobs and local communities. But over the long term, they do not help as the consumer ends up paying the price of reduced competition: increased prices of goods and services (For whatever its worth, this is also one of the reason countries have been moving away from protectionism and <a href="http://www.copenhagenconsensus.com/sites/default/files/cp-tradefinished.pdf?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_pulse_read%3BBAKi%2BQC6SV%2BNdw8il5pIDg%3D%3D">eliminating trade barriers</a>).</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />So what does it mean for the semiconductor industry? Specifically, will the government intervention in semiconductors work?</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />It is important to note that while the U.S. government is intervening, it’s response is a bit different this time compared to that in the past. In addition to pushing back on the Chinese companies in the short-term, just like it pushed back on Japanese companies back then, the White House panel is also taking a long-term view this time: they are recommending long-term initiatives to maintain U.S. leadership in semiconductors. <a href="https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/blog/2017/01/09/ensuring-us-leadership-and-innovation-semiconductors">These initiatives are aimed to</a>:</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br /><strong>+ Improve US business environment</strong>: This includes but is not limited to securing the talent pipeline (e.g., STEM education), increasing government R&D spending, enacting corporate tax-reform and accelerating providing facility permits to semi manufacturing plants.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br /><strong>+ Catalyze transformative semiconductor innovation:</strong> This includes but is not limited to identifying and executing moonshot challenges (e.g., along the lines of Apollo mission of the past), investing in them, adopting a long-term view for fruition and reducing design cost.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />These recommendations coupled with the global trend of reducing trade barriers indicate that the intervention, if successfully implemented, has the potential to retain U.S. leadership in semiconductors.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />In the end though, it will come down to which of these recommendations the US government actually implements.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />And perhaps - and arguably more importantly - how China responds.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />But one thing is for certain: the Broadcom Qualcomm deal – if it happens – could be a game changer due to its sheer size and because of the power such a combined entity could wield.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />But will it happen? And even if it does, will it be enough to save the industry that powers the iPhone?</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br />Only time will tell.</span></p>\r\n <p><span style="color: #000000;"><br /><strong>Will the government intervention to save the U.S. semiconductor industry work? Please leave a comment, I would love to know your opinion.</strong></span></p> """ -user: Proxies\__CG__\App\Entity\User {#1092 …} -createdAt: DateTime @1511624963 {#1145 : 2017-11-25 15:49:23.0 UTC (+00:00) } -updatedAt: DateTime @1511636454 {#1150 : 2017-11-25 19:00:54.0 UTC (+00:00) } -deletedAt: null -category: App\Entity\Category {#445 …} -status: "published" -imageCard: Proxies\__CG__\App\Entity\File {#1184 …} -ImageHeader: Proxies\__CG__\App\Entity\File {#1184 …} -featured: false -mainView: false -clicks: 5699 -comments: Doctrine\ORM\PersistentCollection {#1125 …} -reviewed_at: DateTime @1511624969 {#1148 : 2017-11-25 15:49:29.0 UTC (+00:00) } -metakey: "" -metadesc: "One of Apple’s iPhone supplier – Broadcom – has been in the news for bidding $100B+ for another one of their supplier – Qualcomm.
