6A – Identifying Opportunities in Economic & Regulatory Trends

-
1. More companies are choosing to keep their businesses in the United States rather than outsourcing. A) Where I found it: https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbestechcouncil/2018/03/21/outsourcing-in-the-new-normal-three-trends-reshaping-the-global-industry/#4135d0ff53fa B) Why I believe info may suggest that an opportunity exists:  I believe that this info is encouraging for American businesses because people are more aware of the products that they are buying and the work that is going in to make them.  The article that I found from Forbes.com suggests that the new presidency has caused this economic trend to be even more prevalent as Trump emphasizes the importance of supporting American companies.  More businesses can compete with popular shoe-making brands that often outsource their productions since people will like the "American appeal."

1) Read through your posts from this semester. Recall all of the experiences you've had a long the way -- the highs, the lows -- the fun moments, and the moments of drudgery, and even the moments of dread. I can't believe this is one of my last posts for this course.  This semester seemed to fly by and so much has changed since the first few classes.  Throughout these past few months, I have turned a desire for late-night breakfast food into a detailed vision for a place called "Stacked."  Along this journey, I have gotten to talk to so many incredible people to hear their insight and get tips on how to better improve my idea.  While I have had many great experience, I have certainly experienced times of stress.  There have been days that I waited until the last minute to do an assignment and was frustrated that I couldn't complete the assignment to the best of my ability due to the fact that I didn't have enough time for my desired efforts. 2) What stick...
