Humanoid robots face a key U.S. supply chain gap

MarketWatch says the U.S. lacks a supply chain able to produce key components needed for humanoid robots.

Humanoid robots could reshape daily life, but MarketWatch reports the U.S. does not currently have a supply chain that can produce key parts for the technology.

The outlet says the absence of that capability is a critical hurdle for competing in the global humanoid-robot race.

MarketWatch frames the issue as a component-level manufacturing gap rather than a broader demand problem.
