Trump clears path for Nippon Steel investment in US Steel, so long as it fits the government's terms
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Friday signed an executive order paving the way for a Nippon Steel investment in U.S. Steel, so long as the Japanese company complies with a 'national security agreement' submitted by the federal government. Trump's order didn't detail the terms of the national security agreement. But U.S. Steel and Nippon Steel said in a joint statement that the agreement stipulates that approximately $11 billion in new investments will be made by 2028 and includes giving the U.S. government a 'golden share' — essentially veto power to ensure the country's national security interests are protected. 'We thank President Trump and his Administration for their bold leadership and strong support for our historic partnership,' the two companies said. 'This partnership will bring a massive investment that will support our communities and families for generations to come. We look forward to putting our commitments into action to make American steelmaking and manufacturing great again.' The companies have completed a U.S. Department of Justice review and received all necessary regulatory approvals, the statement said. 'The partnership is expected to be finalized promptly,' the statement said. The companies offered few details on how the golden share would work and what investments would be made. Trump said Thursday that he would as president have 'total control' of what U.S. Steel did as part of the investment. Trump said then that the deal would preserve '51% ownership by Americans.' The Japan-based steelmaker had been offering nearly $15 billion to purchase the Pittsburgh-based U.S. Steel in a merger that had been delayed on national security concerns starting during Joe Biden's presidency. Trump opposed the purchase while campaigning for the White House, yet he expressed optimism in working out an arrangement once in office. 'We have a golden share, which I control,' said Trump, although it was unclear what he meant by suggesting that the federal government would determine what U.S. Steel does as a company. Trump added that he was 'a little concerned' about what presidents other than him would do with their golden share, 'but that gives you total control.' Still, Nippon Steel has never said it was backing off its bid to buy and control U.S. Steel as a wholly owned subsidiary. The proposed merger had been under review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, or CFIUS, during the Trump and Biden administrations. The order signed Friday by Trump said the CFIUS review provided 'credible evidence' that Nippon Steel 'might take action that threatens to impair the national security of the United States,' but such risks might be 'adequately mitigated' by approving the proposed national security agreement. The order doesn't detail the perceived national security risk and only provides a timeline for the national security agreement. The White House declined to provide details on the terms of the agreement. The order said the draft agreement was submitted to U.S. Steel and Nippon Steel on Friday. The two companies must successfully execute the agreement as decided by the Treasury Department and other federal agencies that are part CFIUS by the closing date of the transaction. Trump reserves the authority to issue further actions regarding the investment as part of the order he signed on Friday. ___ Associated Press writer Marc Levy in Harrisburg, Pa., contributed to this report.

Top Stock Market Highlights of the Week: Jetstar Asia, Link REIT and Centurion Corporation
Welcome to this week's edition of top stock market highlights. In a surprise shake-up of the budget airline industry, Singapore-based low-cost airline Jetstar Asia announced that it will cease operations on 31 July. This closure is part of a 'strategic restructure' by its parent company, Qantas (ASX: QAN). More than 500 employees will lose their jobs because of this closure, but Jetstar Asia will provide support, which includes retrenchment benefits and employment opportunities either within the Qantas group or elsewhere. The low-cost carrier will continue to operate flights in the next seven weeks out of Singapore while slowly scaling down its operations till 31 July. The closure was blamed on escalating supplier costs, airport fees, and aviation charges. The airline also cited growing capacity and intense competition in the region as factors that influenced its decision. Jetstar Asia was expected to post a loss of A$35 million before interest and taxes are factored in for this financial year (ending 30 June 2025). Records from the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) show that the airline has been bleeding for several years. Of the four fiscal years stretching from 30 June 2021 to 30 June 2024, the airline was profitable for just one fiscal year, turning in a profit of S$12.5 million in 2023. With costs expected to continue increasing, the airline said that it would put pressure on its ability to offer low fares, thus forcing it to shut down. Retrenched employees will receive a payment of four weeks per year of service, a bonus for this fiscal year, a special 'thank you' payment, and other benefits. Singapore Airlines (SGX: C6L) has stepped in to explore potential employment opportunities for affected staff and is working closely with Jetstar Asia. 16 routes are affected by Jetstar Asia's closure, but 12 of these are served by other airlines. Changi Airport Group (CAG) will work to restore connectivity for the remaining four locations. Ground handler SATS Ltd (SGX: S58) is also working with Jetstar Asia to ensure a smooth and orderly transition. Link REIT is looking at listing a REIT in Singapore that includes properties from outside of China and Hong Kong. Early discussions are being held with advisers on the potential initial public offer (IPO), but the company has not decided to proceed. This IPO news is coming at a time when Link REIT is looking to diversify its operations away from property management. If the IPO goes ahead, it will be good news for the Singapore market as it struggles to reverse a trend of delistings. Since the beginning of 2024, just five companies have gone public on the Singapore Exchange (SGX: S68), or SGX. Another company is also considering a REIT listing on the Singapore bourse. Centurion Corporation has followed up on its January 2025 announcement that it was exploring the establishment of a REIT by submitting a listing application to the SGX and the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). The application is currently under review. As a recap, Centurion announced in January that it was aiming to list a REIT seeded with its worker and student accommodation assets. The REIT will be sponsored by Centurion, and the company will be working with DBS Group (SGX: D05) and UBS to explore a proposed listing. The listing will be subject to market conditions, commercial negotiations, and approvals being obtained from both SGX and MAS before it can proceed. The last time Centurion attempted to list its properties via a REIT was a decade ago in 2015. Back then, the listing plan was postponed after consultations with SGX. The exchange commented that listing a REIT would constitute a 'chain listing' if the assets and operations of the applicant are substantially the same as the parent company. As of 31 March 2025, Centurion owns and manages a portfolio of 37 accommodation assets totalling 69,929 beds. As of this writing, shares of Centurion are up 59% year-to-date and have touched an all-time high of S$1.56. When the market is unpredictable, where can you park your money with confidence?
