Trump: US Steel to remain 'American company'

US President Donald Trump says the company US Steel, which had been the target of a takeover bid by Japan's Nippon Steel, will remain in America.

You're going to stay in American company." He added that Nippon Steel will invest 14 billion dollars in US Steel, describing it as the largest investment in the history of Pennsylvania and in the history of the steel industry.

ArcelorMittal shares surge as Trump backs Nippon Steel partnership

-- ArcelorMittal SA (AS:MT) shares rose about 4% on Monday, following the announcement by U.S. President Donald Trump of a partnership that would allow Japan's Nippon Steel Corp (TYO:5401) to take control of United States Steel Corporation (NYSE:X). The surge in ArcelorMittal's shares was also boosted by the belief that the deal could spur further consolidation in the sector. The trading volume for the day was 16% above the 20-day average for the same time. In his announcement on Friday, Trump did not explicitly endorse the proposed $14.1 billion cash takeover of US Steel by Nippon Steel. He did, however, assert that the company would "remain in America."
