# Hodges Friday Fast Five

*"In the investment business, you go to school every day, but never graduate." - Don Hodges*

# Friday Fast Five - 1/13/2023

by [Hodges Investment Team](https://blog.hodgescapital.com/fast-five/author/hodges-investment-team), on Jan 13, 2023 7:00:00 AM

Five interesting things that Hodges Capital research analysts discovered this week...

**#1**** ****RESHORING REALITY: **According to a Deloitte survey of large U.S. manufacturers, 62% have started reshoring activities to build a more resilient supply chain in the wake of Covid, the Ukraine War, and China uncertainty. As a result, an estimated 350,000 U.S. jobs were added in 2022 due to reshoring.**    ****   ****  **

**#2**** ****AUTO SALES: **2022 was the worst domestic new vehicle sales year in more than a decade. Cox Automotive estimates that 13.8 million new vehicles were sold last year, reflecting a year-over-year decline of 8.5%.** **       

**#3**** ****TOYS: **Adults now make up a growing share of the U.S. toy industry. According to NPD data, adults over 18 now make up $5.7B, or 14% of toy sales in the U.S.**      **

**#4 ****NEARSIGHTEDNESS: **Recent data presented by Bausch and Lomb at the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference suggest an alarming rise in myopia or nearsightedness due to phone and computer screen use.          

**#5**** ****STEEL PRICING FIRM: **A survey by Morgan Stanley of U.S. steel producers, distributors, traders, and end users indicated that 100% expected finished steel prices to remain steady or increase in January from December, and 73.7% were neutral or bullish on future pricing trends beyond January.
