Are there signs of a disruption of value chains in the United States?

The main criticism against the tariffs implemented in the United States is that they disrupt US companies’ value chains. Are there signs of a disruption of value chains in the United States, which would be : A decline in productivity, especially in industry; A rise in producer prices; A fall in corporate earnings; A decline in productive investment? We have not seen these signs appearing since the start of 2018: Industrial productivity gains are picking up; Producer prices have hardly risen; Earnings have remained stable; Productive investment has accelerated. Currently, value chains have not been disrupted in the United States.
