Afterglow of the time when the US was the world's top manufacturer. Today, 121 US companies are in the Fortune Global 500. That means 379 NON-US companies are in the Fortune Global 500.

China has more companies (124) in the Fortune Global 500 than the US (121). The US only has 2 companies in the Top Ten.

That's a ridiculous take, the only sector where the US is dominant is tech, outside of that there's really not that many brands.
