The automation industry is too dependant on so many other industries. I learned this real quick after the COVID lockdowns of 2020.
The shipping delays, as well as the overall lack of devices and materials caused huge waves but management made it seem like manageable ripples in a pond.
I made an educated gamble and got out of that industry in 2021. I couldn’t predict Trump’s tariff wars but I felt a disturbance early on.
I’m speaking from a North American perspective but the automation industry is global. This doesn’t surprise me but even the headline alone brings a sense of disappointment.
