TOKYO -- Nearly 50% of leaders at major Japanese companies look to ramp up U.S. operations amid President Donald Trump's efforts to draw foreign investment, but many worry about the uncertainty surrounding his administration's tariff plans, a Nikkei survey shows.
Of the 144 companies that provided responses, 28.3% said they plan to expand in the U.S., with another 20.5% considering doing so, while 0.8% have no presence there now but will enter the market going forward. None intend to scale back U.S. business.
