Maybe be worth picking up some shares at fire-sale prices
US Steel will THRIVE under a Trump Administration.
She is a communist.
But — for now — she is willing to declare that she agrees with Trump on almost everything. I guess that Kamala Harris IS Donald Trump, but without the mean tweets.
I’m sure how many people will believe this.
Both presidential candidates have said they would block the sale. I think that is stupid. US Steel is grossly mismanaged and needs a buyout. Cleveland Cliffs wants to buy it too, but is offering a tiny fraction of what Nippon is offering. The Japanese are not a security threat.
wait. is she in any position to stop it?
would rather not have it sold offshore either, but probably for much different reasons that she.
cool. so you like working for the man, do ya?
She says as government contracts (as well as private industry) go to corporations that buy foreign materials. Doesn’t help that American companies are mostly run by dolts and foreigners as well. Let’s not forget unions and DEI crap over their bottom line and innovation drives.
Any deal where the employees are mostly American and the suits are mostly Japanese is a great deal for America.
If you believe her, then the only issues that she disagrees with Trump on are the border and abortion. You often hear Dems say that the GOP is no better on controlling spending than Dems, which is demonstrably false. But now you have Harris promising a tax cut. The Dems seldom honor their promises to increase taxes despite their constant criticism of GOP tax cuts.
Unbelievable.
China is already heavily invested in America’s real estate, businesses, and now heavy industry. They have infiltrated universities, government, main street and more.
This must come to a halt.
Republican nominee and former President Donald Trump has also vowed to block the transaction. This is yet another policy that Harris closely aligns with Trump on.
Biden Harris wants it in Chinese hands. Or one of those other American hating countries Hunter collects cash for The Big Guy.
Japan has been dumping their steel here forever. It deserves a tariff. And get the Unions out of the steel business.
Maybe not. Steelmakers using electric furnaces built brand new mills during Trump’s time in office.
To the extent US Steel is using old technology, it may not thrive.
Anyone?
Considering Cleveland Cliffs tried to buy them last year, US Steel is in trouble. But Big River Steel, owned by USS, is who they really want. BRS has a big, brand new footprint with a lot of new technology.
The can put Orren Boyle in charge.
Unions prevent our steelmakers from making upgrades that “cost” jobs, forcing them to use more labor intensive and expensive older technology.
This has been an issue with our steel companies for 40 years at least. They are also poorly managed also, so both sides in this issue are killing the company.
