On the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Michael Cembalest, Chair of Market and Investment Strategy for JPMorgan Asset & Wealth Management, uses the imaginary “Aquilaceph” - a half bald eagle, half octopus - as a metaphor for America’s continued tight grip on global markets. 
Chapter 1: The dollar’s grip on reserve currency status defies the usual suspects 
Chapter 2: The US still attracts plenty of foreign capital 
Chapter 3: The “Sell America” trade runs out of steam 
Chapter 4: US companies are more profitable than Rest of World, but there are signs of investor exuberance in AI 
Chapter 5: All the AI eggs in one basket — concentration of market cap, accelerator revenue, frontier labs and belief 
Chapter 6: US productivity growth still leads the G10 
Chapter 7: The US lead in AI and its Taiwanese Achilles Heel while China catches up 
Chapter 8: Investing in US Security & Resilience as early post-mortems on the Iran War roll in 
Chapter 9: The increased unpredictability in the rule of law 
Chapter 10: Federal government defunding of science and sidelining of scientific expertise 
Chapter 11: Energy independence and the energy transition — the US goes it alone
