Episode Notes

Demographic changes, which are entirely predictable with high accuracy, will have the most impact of any trend on businesses globally for the next 20 years. Specifically, the aging population in the USA, Japan, China and Germany will create major changes in how manufacturing is implemented, creating tremendous market shifts.  Japan and China are likely to be the biggest losers, and America has a lot to gain, returning the USA to the #1 spot in global manufacturing, if we use this trend to America's benefit.

The aging population in all 4 top manufacturing countries will lead to greater automation and use of robotics, creating new avenues for productivity and sales. You can't go wrong investing in these, and both will be supported with high payoff investments in artificial intelligence (AI.)
