DETROIT -- A widening global shortage of semiconductors for auto parts is forcing major auto companies to halt or slow vehicle production just as they were recovering from pandemic-related factory shutdowns.

Officials at Volkswagen, Ford, Fiat Chrysler, Toyota and Nissan all say they have been hit by the shortage and been forced to delay production of some models in order to keep other factories running. >> https://abcnews.go.com/Business/wir...rces-automobile-production-cuts-75140296

Cant believe all the car companies that think they are going to go all electric. Unless they plan on mining asteroids I don't know where they think they will get the materials for rare earth magnets and lithium batteries?!?!?! There is only a finite amount of that stuff and a new report just said China is NOT taking new orders or customers for their raw materials. Maybe I shouldn't have sold my horse smile
