Can we admit this was always a nothingburger and if it wasn't named "U.S. Steel" this deal would've been approved ages ago?
If it was named "Clifford Steel" or "Bower Steel," literally no one would give even a single fuck. Having the name "U.S. Steel" didn't make it any more American, it was just a fucking brand.

>>507308511>The US is just letting the Japs run itThere were some concessions to make the deal easier to swallow but it's a sale and the Japs own it now (they wouldn't agree to run it otherwise). But op is right, it's a nothingburger.

It's about removing competition anon. Kind of how like the Chinese sell TV, Phones and now cars at a loss to gain market share to later charge higher prices after all the other companies go bust.
It's the long game.

No "X" ticker for Elon after that spat.
Deal on hold through multiple admins, approved immediately after one personal tiff.
The US dollar's trajectory down really is the anchor for any US steel company. Indexes up, dollar down, more war. It's a tried and true playbook.
>>507309456Japan is one of the most overworked countries in the world. They literally can't bring the factories there because there's no one to work them. They will simply collect profit from continued US operations.

No one cares about this. We're doing war for the Jews now.

>>507308412 (OP)Make me a favor and buy Nipon Steel if it is not the big deal nigger
I recall a few months ago there was a public press conference between trump and ishiba and they both agreed that the purchase would instead be investment? Did they just decide to fuck that?
