AMC
AMC theaters have provided wonderful and easygoing moviegoing experiences for nearly a century. This company expanded to become the world’s largest movie chain due to its success. Despite the common misconception that the initials AMC stood for American Multi-Cinema, the principal shareholder from 2012 to 2018 was a Chinese firm called Dalian Wanda Group. The company’s prospects improved slightly when Silver Lake Partners made a $600 million investment in it in 2018. This does not change the fact that Wanda Group retains ultimate authority over executive-level hires.

Budweiser
Some argue that you can’t get more American than this when it comes to beer. Although it was started in Missouri and the container still says “America,” this company is no longer American. InBev, the Belgian beer behemoth, paid $52 billion for this company in 2008. While it once had a strong American identity, it is a very different place now and in the future. Whatever the case may be, we’re glad the parent firm kept control of the formula. It still has its original flavor!
