Apple Investors Vote to Support China Manufacturing Strategy
Apple shareholders have given the company's management a fresh mandate to continue its current supply chain strategy. This happened after they rejected a proposal that called for a detailed report on the risks linked to heavily relying on manufacturing in China, during their annual general meeting.
