Trump’s Game-Changer: Nippon Steel Set to Revive US Steel Industry with $14.1B Deal

Trulli

In a surprising shift, US President Donald Trump gave conditional approval for Tokyo-based Nippon Steel’s $14.1 billion deal to acquire US Steel. This move marks a dramatic change in the American steel industry, allowing significant foreign investment in one of the country’s oldest industrial giants.

Trump called the deal a “partnership” that could breathe new life into US Steel and inject billions into the American economy.

According to Trump, the alliance promises at least 70,000 jobs and $14 billion in investments over the next 14 months. He also confirmed US Steel would keep its headquarters in Pittsburgh, a win for local pride.

Trump’s nod doesn’t fully support foreign ownership. Instead, it hints at a middle ground where Nippon Steel manages operations but stays under American oversight. Both sides are still negotiating the exact terms. Nippon will have a board mostly made up of US citizens and a federal regulator keeping watch.

From Opposition to Conditional Support

Earlier, both Trump and his predecessor Joe Biden opposed this deal due to worries over foreign control of a critical US industry. Biden even began moves to block the sale. But after a national security review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the US (CFIUS), Trump reversed course this May.

“United States Steel used to be a symbol of greatness,” Trump said. “Now, it will be again.” He plans a campaign rally at the Pittsburgh steel plant on May 30 to celebrate this new chapter.

Market Cheers but Unions Remain Wary

The stock market liked the news. US Steel’s shares jumped over 21%, moving closer to Nippon’s $55-per-share offer. However, not everyone is happy.

The United Steelworkers union slammed the deal, fearing that Nippon Steel’s history of cheap imports could threaten US jobs and production. The union’s president, Dave McCall, warned that Nippon might weaken domestic steelmaking despite promises to respect labor contracts until 2026.

What’s Next for Nippon Steel and US Steel?

For Nippon Steel, the acquisition is part of a bigger plan to offset falling demand in Japan and grow worldwide. For US Steel, it offers a lifeline after years of struggle.

If finalized, this deal would reshape the US steel industry, easing fears about foreign ownership and setting a precedent for future foreign investment in American industries.

A national-security agreement is expected soon to set the rules for the partnership, including investment commitments and regulatory oversight.

The US steel industry is entering new territory. Foreign investment, once taboo, is now seen as a way to revive old mills and boost jobs. It’s like inviting a foreign chef into your kitchen—risky, but maybe the only way to save the family recipe.
