    Yet another example that the firms that actually make the things are the ones that matter in the long run.

    Apparently Picea makes Roomba, Shark, Anker (Eufy). Maybe also some Dyson.

          Let’s go down the list of the biggest companies in the world

          Nvidia, Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Broadcom, Meta

          They don’t manufacture anything, not even Amazon. They outsource Amazon basics to other companies in China.

          The biggest companies in the world don’t actually produce anything themselves, you have to go down to TSMC and oil companies to get to actual tangible items
