On December 18, 2023, U.S. Steel disclosed entry into an agreement to be acquired by Nippon Steel Corporation ("Nippon") in an all-cash transaction at $55.00 per share, subject to "customary" approvals and conditions. That same day, U.S. Steel's Chief Executive Officer sold $12 million worth of the Company's stock at prices between $49.87 and $50.17 per share, lower than the deal price of $55.00 per share.
Then, on March 13, 2024, reports emerged that the deal between U.S. Steel and Nippon was subject to more than "customary" conditions, including a national-security review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States ("CIFUS").
On this news, U.S. Steel's stock price fell $5.98 per share, or 12.8%, to close at $40.86 per share on March 13, 2024.
On May 21, 2024, U.S. Steel confirmed that its acquisition by Nippon was indeed subject to CIFUS review.
