Report Conclusion
"The American brand collapse is the most significant brand valuation event in the history of this index. In eight years, the United States went from contributing 52% of the Top 100’s total brand value to contributing 4.7%. This is not a recession. This is not a cycle. This is a permanent restructuring of global brand power.
The surviving American brands share one trait: they make physical things that are hard to substitute (tractors, medical supplies, aircraft). Every brand that depended on cultural cachet, technological superiority, or lifestyle aspiration has been destroyed.
Brand America is not declining. It has declined. Past tense."
