Field Investigation:

China’s High Technology Development

Palo Alto, California

April 21-22, 2005

Introduction:

The US suffered a net loss of nonfarm jobs from 2000-2004 for the first four-year period since the 1930s.

California also lost jobs over the past four years although the state also lost jobs in the four-year periods ending in

1947 (due to W.W.II demobilization) and -- more severely -- in the four-years ending in both 1994 and 1995.

Job growth has rebounded in the US over the past two years but growth has been weak and limited, almost

entirely, to industries with limited exposure to global competition. Job growth has yet to rebound in the San

Jose/Palo Alto area.

San Francisco’s metropolitan area has suffered job losses far more severe than for the state or country as a whole.

Even with a modest rebound in recent months, San Francisco’s job totals remain below levels reached in late

1997. The San Jose metropolitan area suffered the worst percentage job losses of any metro area in the country

over the past four years. Its overall job totals are now at levels first reached in mid-1995 and shifts between

industries are even more dramatic. 

The US also suffered the smallest four-year gain in the growth of services-providing jobs since data were first

collected in 1939. California has added only 1.7% to its job base providing services over the past four years but

the San Francisco area has lost a remarkable -7.8% of its service jobs and the San Jose area has lost -14.0% over

the period. Manufacturing jobs have plunged by -34.9% in the San Jose area over the past four years. Despite

near record monetary and fiscal policy stimulus, industrial and particularly manufacturing output has been

extraordinarily weak, growing less than one-third of the usual rate during the first 40 months of cyclical recovery.

Fortunately, productivity growth has remained strong. Unfortunately, US production has been displaced by an

ever-rising record tide of net imports, particularly from China with which the US has an imbalance of nearly

six-to-one imports-to-exports and a trade deficit now reaching $15 billion each month. The global US Current

Accounts deficit set a new record of near -$666 billion in 2004 and could approach -$800 billion in 2005. The

overall deficit in globally traded goods and services has reached a record -5.6% drag on real Gross Domestic

Product -- compared with a -2.5% drag reached at the height of “competitiveness” concerns in 1986. 

Page 1
The manufacturing trade deficit is far and away the worst on record, reaching -$466 billion in 2004 and total

deficits of -$1.87 Trillion over just the past five years. 

Since 2002, the manufacturing trade deficit has included the first ever recorded global deficits in Advanced

Technology Products. In 2004 the US suffered its first ever combined trade deficit in technology goods AND

services and losses are widening rapidly in 2005. China accounts for one-third of the US deficits in traded

manufactured goods, with a deficit of -$167 billion last year, and for the entire US deficits in technology trade. 

The US global surplus in traded services has been generally declining for eight years to levels now well-below those

reached in 1992. The US services surplus with China was only $2.06 billion in 2003 (most recent available) with

more than half the surplus, $1.25 billion, attributed to education of Chinese mostly in American colleges and

universities. Much of the funding of Chinese students in the US (counted as “exports”) is provided by US

foundations and US-based global companies. The US surplus with China for on all “intellectual property” royalties,

licenses and fees was only $0.8 billion.

Using the formula developed by the Department of Commerce, 9,000 US workers were needed to produce each

$1 billion of tradable goods in the year 2003 and, with productivity growth of 5.6%, about 8,500 workers were

needed to produce each $1 billion of tradable goods output in 2004. This suggests that the worsening balance of

net imports of goods displaced about another -739,300 US jobs (for a total of about -5,539,700 jobs) in the more

highly productive and therefore higher-wage goods sectors in 2004. California’s global trade deficit appears to

have worsened from $59.3 billion in 2003 to $69.7 billion in 2004. It is therefore reasonable to conclude that

another -58,400 jobs in California were displaced by the worsening deficits erosion of production growth between

2003 and 2004. Overall, net global imports now appear to displace about 592,200 jobs from California’s tradable

goods sectors. 

Applying the same labor/output formula to the worsening US trade deficits with China suggests they are responsible

for the loss of about another -261,000 tradeable-goods jobs in 2004 for a total loss of -1,377,000. By this metric,

California’s deficit with China displaced another -27,200 net jobs in 2004 for a total state job displacement from

China trade now of -145,700. 

Recent Job Losses:

US job recovery has now continued for 22 months although at the weakest pace of any recovery on record. Total

industrial and manufacturing production increases in the US during the first 40 months of the current cyclical

economic recovery are also -- by far -- the weakest on record. 

The San Jose area continues to have modestly fewer jobs in Feb. 2005 than in Feb. 2004 with service-providing

jobs account for most of the decline. As Federal fiscal and monetary policies are now becoming less stimulative,

US consumer and business demand growth is slowing even as net imports are increasing, particularly from China. 

Concerns are compounded because the nature of competition for production and jobs has changed fundamentally.

During the 1980s, the concern was that even with similar labor and regulatory costs, US firms could not compete

with Japanese firms. Today’s principal concern is NOT between firms, which have in any case become increasingly

trans-national. The concern today is largely over the location decisions for goods and services production and job

Page 2
creation within these global firms facing the enormous differentials in the cost of labor, regulatory and living

standards in the Palo Alto/San Jose area and in other areas of the world -- particularly China.

The San Jose metropolitan area has lost -206,500 net jobs, -19.5% of its total, over the last four years for the

worst percentage job loss of any metropolitan area in the country. Private sector job loss has been even more

severe, declining by -21.2%. San Jose’s area has lost -90,700 manufacturing jobs (-34.9% of the total,) including

the loss of -83,600 of the most highly productive durable manufacturing sector jobs. Of these durable

manufacturing jobs, -65,500 were lost in firms making computers and electronic products, including

semiconductors. This represents a four-year decline of -36.7% for local jobs in this industry.

Professional and Technical Services have lost -40,600 jobs, -29.9% of their total. Every major component of this

key sector has suffered severe job losses over the past four years: architects/engineers, -48.0%; computer systems

designers, -34.0%; scientific research and development, -8.4%. The Information Services sector lost -12,700

jobs, -27.5% of its totals. All of these sectors except R&D have continued to lose jobs over the past year with

stepped-up outsourcing to China and elsewhere, raising new questions about future growth. Sun Microsystems, for

example, recently indicated plans to add more than 500 new software engineers in its Beijing operations within the

next two years and BearingPoint has plans to add over 9,000. 

San Jose’s area has fewer jobs today than four years ago in every major industry sector except Health Care,

Education and Financial Credit Intermediation -- industries that currently face little or no outsourcing or global

competition. 

Global and China Trade:

Freight data for the air and sea port district of San Francisco show the value of global imports exceeded exports by

a record -$19.0 billion in 2004 and the imbalance is widening sharply this year. The district’s imbalance in China

trade reached a record deficit in net imports of -$6.2 billion in 2004 and data for early 2005 suggest the deficit

could surge to near -$11 billion this year. 

The dollar value of the San Francisco port district’s global exports and imports each fell in the past four years, by

-34.5% and -17.2%, respectively. Conversely, exports to China are up 50.6% and imports from China are up

54.1% during the period. Overall, the district imports from China more than it exports in 75 of the 97 international

Harmonized Series industry categories. 

For each $1.00 worth of exports to China, the district imports $2.80 worth of goods from China but there are

wide variations between industries. The district imports from China $3.50 worth of machinery, computers and

computer parts for each $1.00 of these products exported to China. For electrical machinery and parts -- including

such things as mobile phones and semiconductors -- the district imports from China $2.00 worth of product for

each $1.00 of exports. In several categories of apparel, the US imports $1000s of dollars worth of goods from

China for each $1.00 of exports. On the other hand, in 22 of the 97 industry classifications, mostly agricultural and

mining commodities, the district export more than it imports from China.

The Commerce Department also collects information on the state origin of finished products for US export. These

figures are quite problematic because they do not sort out the value of component parts imported into the state

from other states and countries. There are no official state data whatsoever on imports. The most straightforward

method of estimating the final destination of US imports is to simply apportion them equally by state population.

Page 3
Using this method for imports and the available export data, 47 states and the District of Columbia had global trade

deficits in 2004. Most state deficits are worsening rapidly. Every state had rapidly worsening trade deficits with

China in 2003 and again in 2004.

California was overtaken by Texas in 2002 as the state with the greatest global exports. But California remains, by

far, the state with the greatest exports to China and the greatest imports from China. Although the US imports

$5.70 worth of goods from China for each $1.00 of exports, according to the state “exports” data, California’s

import-to-export ratio with China is only 3.5-to-1. Still, when imports are allocated equally by population,

California’s deficit with China is shown to have worsened from $13.2 billion in 2003 to $17.1 billion in 2004, the

largest deficit of any state. 

China accounts for 6.4% of California’s goods exports and is the state’s 4th largest export market behind Mexico,

Japan and Canada. California’s major exports to China are computers and electronics, waste and scrap material,

machine tools, transportation equipment, chemicals and crop products. Of these, only waste and scrap material

exports to China account for more than 6.5% of California’s global exports of the industry. Both the national and

San Francisco port district data strongly suggest that California faces large and rapidly growing trade deficits with

China in most manufacturing industries, including in most advanced technology products.

Although state data do not exist, it seems highly probable from the US data that California and the San Jose area

enjoy a small but growing surplus in the global and China trade of education, software and other professional

services. Even these small surpluses can be expected to face increased challenge in the years immediately ahead for

the same reasons that have long faced goods producers.

Everyone understands, of course, that lowering the price of component inputs of goods and services lowers firms’

cost of production and can improve revenue or allow them to lower prices to improve price competitiveness. And

every consumer appreciates lower prices for products they want to buy. Unfortunately, the capabilities of modern

information technologies now allow large global companies to make or buy most goods and services wherever

living standards are lowest while continuing to sell in the San Jose/Palo Alto area and elsewhere. Those who

believed that higher aggregate levels of productivity in Silicon Valley and throughout the US could forever support

wages and living standards far above those in Mexico and China have been proven wrong by chronic and

worsening trade deficits. 

Those who believe that only low skilled manufacturing jobs and lightly capitalized industries face price-competition

from the world’s leading firms that now produce cutting-edge goods and services in China face a similar

awakening. The recent history in the San Jose/Palo Alto area is a useful example of the new challenges facing

policy-makers and the American standard of living.
