Stargate UAE AI Deal Stalls Over U.S. Chip Rules
AI behemoth Stargate UAE has hit a roadblock because U.S. officials are still hashing out security terms for exporting advanced chips. Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), Oracle (NYSE:ORCL), OpenAI, Cisco Systems (NASDAQ:CSCO), SoftBank Group (SFTBY) and UAE's G42 teamed up last month after President Trump's Middle East stop to launch what could become a 5-gigawatt AI data-center powerhouse. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 4 Warning Signs with NVDA. The first 200-megawatt chunk was supposed to go live in 2026, operated by OpenAI and Oracle, but nobody's signed off on the chip-export rules yet, so the deal remains on ice. Although G42 says the project builds on the new U.S.-UAE AI Acceleration Partnership, which aims to foster safe, responsible AI, Washington still worries about the UAE's China tiesrecalling how the UAE let Huawei (now under U.S. fire) roll out 5G during Trump's first term. OpenAI and G42 both have Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) backing, but even that doesn't erase concerns that Chinese hardware or talent could leak U.S. tech to adversaries. Because of those unresolved security questionslike banning Chinese gear on site or limiting who can work therethe Commerce Department, Nvidia, OpenAI, G42, Microsoft, Oracle and SoftBank all declined to say when any approval might come. And adding drama, Elon Musk recently hinted he might torpedo the whole thing unless xAI gets a seat at the table. Investors should care because if the UAE pushes back on U.S. curbsinsisting on looser rulesthe entire Stargate plan could stall, undermining a high-profile attempt to export American AI clout. Watch for any new U.S. export guidelines and whether Abu Dhabi caves to get those cutting-edge chips; otherwise, this megaproject could sit stalled well past 2026.

Trump's $14B Power Play: Japan Buys US Steel--But America Keeps the Keys
The $14.1 billion takeover of United States Steel (NYSE:X) by Japan's Nippon Steel is alive, kickingand reportedly on track to close before a key June 18 deadline. Sources close to the matter say talks with the U.S. government are moving toward the finish line, with negotiations centering around national security, governance, andof coursepolitics. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) hasn't wrapped up its investigation just yet, but insiders say it's likely to greenlight the deal before time runs out. Markets are pricing in success: US Steel shares have hovered above $53 since late May, brushing right up against Nippon's $55-a-share offer. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 8 Warning Sign with X. But this isn't your typical cross-border M&A deal. Under the current framework being discussed, US Steel will stay headquartered in Pittsburgh, retain an American CEO, and operate under a U.S.-majority boardwith some positions needing government signoff. Trump, who's taken a victory lap on the campaign trail, says his push added a $5,000 worker bonus and locked in $9.2 billion in future steel investments. He's also promised no layoffs, no outsourcing, and full blast furnace capacity for a decade. Whether all of that makes it into the final signed documents remains to be seenbut the direction is clear: Japanese capital, American command. There's still a court case technically underway, stemming from the Biden administration's earlier attempt to block the deal. The Justice Department just asked for an eight-day extension to keep negotiatinganother signal that both sides are close. And if this closes? Nippon Steel won't just own a symbol of American industry. It'll own a politically engineered hybridwith a Japanese parent and a very American playbook. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Spain's $5B Telecom Breakup? Telefonica and Masorange Plot Bold Move on Vodafone
Telefonica (NYSE:TEF) and Masorange have kicked off informal discussions about a potential deal for Vodafone Spain, according to people familiar with the matter. While nothing is on paper yet, insiders say one idea being explored involves splitting up Vodafone Spain's fixed-line and mobile or enterprise operationspossibly to dodge antitrust objections. Masorange could also take over the Lowi brand, Vodafone's low-cost unit. The backdrop? Pressure is mounting in Spain's crowded telecom market, and consolidation is starting to look like the only way out. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 9 Warning Signs with TEF. Masorange, formed in 2024 from the 18.6 billion merger between Masmovil and Orange's local business, is now the country's biggest operator by customer base. Vodafone Spain, meanwhile, was acquired by Zegona for 5 billion last year but has continued to strugglepartly due to an aging fiber-optic network. It's already working with Masorange on a fiber venture, but a broader breakup-and-buyout could redraw Spain's telecom map. Telefonica still dominates business services, but Chairman Marc Murtra has made it clear: Europe's telecom players need to bulk up or risk getting left behind. But even if the strategic logic lines up, execution won't be easy. Telefonica's credit rating is hanging at the edge of investment-grade, leaving little room for risky moves. Murtra has said he won't jeopardize that rating, though some sources say creative funding structures might still be possible. A throwback to the 2020 Brazil playbookwhere Telefonica and two rivals jointly carved up Oi SAcould help navigate regulatory obstacles. For now, there's no formal proposal, but if talks progress, this could become one of the boldest moves in European telecom in years. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
