President Trump signed an executive order today directing a review of the U.S. defense-industrial base. The goal, according to Peter Navarro, director of the White House Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy, is to "assess where we source things and what risk that may entail." Some items like flat-screen displays and military grade semiconductors are difficult or impossible to source domestically, making the military supply chain vulnerable.The report is due within 270 days.
