I hope we don\u2019t get there. But if we have to we will.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Automakers from General Motors Co to Toyota Motor Corp to Chrysler parent Stellantis NV have slashed output and sales forecasts due to scarce chip supplies, made worse by a COVID-19 resurgence in key Asian semiconductor production hubs.<\/p>\n<p>Stellantis Chief Executive Carlos Tavares, who participated in the White House virtual meeting, said the automaker will cooperate with the information request, but added in a statement that \u201cbroad participation from the entire semiconductor supply chain will be critical for these efforts to be successful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some attendees told Reuters privately they were concerned the transparency measures could require disclosing pricing information that many companies regard as corporate secrets.<\/p>\n<p>Raimondo also delivered the message to the companies privately that the government would mandate information sharing if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>The White House also said several U.S. agencies would manage a new early alert system \u201cto proactively manage potential semiconductor supply chain disruptions linked to public health developments in key trading partners.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Participants were concerned about how to disclose such information while still complying with reporting requirements of publicly traded companies, a participant said.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/usa-semiconductors-white-house\/white-house-prods-companies-on-chips-information-request-idUSKBN2GJ0M4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The White House is pressing automakers, chip companies and others to cooperate in a bid for more information about the ongoing semiconductor crisis [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":121769,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
