Ford CEO believes company will be ‘advantaged’ around tariffs, NY Post says

Ford (F) Motors CEO Jim Farley told New York Post’s Lydia Moynihan that despite the tariffs, he has never been more optimistic about the company’s future. “I mean, how exciting is it to go from being criticized for our US plants – in every investor meeting I had, why do you make so much in the US, why don’t you localize overseas, why don’t you do more of what your competitors do? – to actually be advantaged because we’re building an American car company and always have,” Farley said, according to the post. The Trump administration’s focus on American manufacturing is aligned with the company’s long-standing strategy, Farley added.
