TAIPEI -- Taiwan's largest companies have spent the past two decades building factories ever deeper into China, particularly in the Yangtze River and Pearl River deltas. Besides having a major impact on global supply chains, this push has left the economy of Taiwan deeply entwined with that of its large -- and, increasingly, antagonistic -- neighbor across the strait.
Yet there are growing signs that many of Taiwan's companies may soon begin to unwind that 20-year process by withdrawing from China, due in no small part to the U.S.-China trade dispute.
