Does it really matter which country is the headquarters for the corporate owner? It's still a German plant hiring Germans and subject to German laws. The rule of law exists in both Germany and the US. German citizens can invest in Intel.

And, in the event of a US/German war, that plant is and will remain German, not American.

I think there's an excellent case for distinguishing that from companies from China, where non-Chinese citizens have a great risk of confiscation of their assets by investing, Chinese companies are subject to a lot of other rules even when operating outside China, etc.
