The order calls for the <strong>Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S. (CFIUS)<\/strong> to conduct a 45-day review to assess whether the deal still poses national security risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The acquisition was originally <strong>blocked by former President Joe Biden in January<\/strong>, citing concerns that foreign ownership of the iconic American steelmaker could threaten U.S. national interests. Biden\u2019s order at the time left the door open for future executive action\u2014a provision Trump now appears to be acting on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his statement, Trump instructed CFIUS to determine whether measures proposed by the companies involved would be sufficient to <strong>mitigate any national security risks<\/strong> identified by the committee. The companies, which have since filed lawsuits against the U.S. government challenging the blockage, are expected to cooperate with the review process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump\u2019s move to reevaluate the deal has sparked <strong>renewed investor optimism<\/strong>, with traders betting on a potential green light for the acquisition. The sharp rise in U.S. Steel\u2019s stock reflects the market\u2019s perception that the review could lead to a reversal of the earlier decision\u2014or at least open the door to a compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CFIUS review could reshape the future of the U.S. steel industry, reigniting debates over foreign ownership of critical infrastructure and its intersection with national security. A recommendation from the committee is expected within the next 45 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might like this article:<a href=\"https:\/\/stoxpo.com\/index.php\/2025\/04\/04\/nike-lululemon-surge-as-vietnam-signals-tariff-cuts-after-trump-call\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Nike, Lululemon Surge as Vietnam Signals Tariff Cuts After Trump Call<\/mark><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>White House revisits $14.1 billion acquisition previously blocked over national security concerns Shares of U.S. Steel (NYSE: X) surged more than 14% on Monday following President Donald Trump&#8217;s directive to revisit the company\u2019s proposed $14.1 billion acquisition by Japan\u2019s Nippon Steel.
