US Steel is turning Japanese in a $14.1 billion deal. US Steel, once the world’s largest company and a symbol of US manufacturing might that counts J.P. Morgan and Andrew Carnegie among its founders, has agreed to be bought by Japan’s Nippon Steel. The deal ends months of speculation over the 122-year-old steel company’s fate after it rebuffed a $7.3 billion offer from domestic rival Cleveland-Cliffs over the summer. Assuming regulators and US Steel’s shareholders sign off on the purchase, it would make Nippon the second-biggest steel company globally and give it a major presence in the US market, which uses a lot of steel, especially to make cars.
Nikola's founder gets four years for fraud. Trevor Milton was sentenced to four years in prison yesterday after having been found guilty of defrauding investors in the electric vehicle company he founded. While that’s less than the Elizabeth Holmes-level, 11-year sentence prosecutors had pushed for, it’s more than the probation he requested. Nikola was briefly the third-most-valuable vehicle company in the US, but its value plunged when a short seller accused the company of lying about its tech. Prosecutors agreed and claimed Milton fibbed about the company’s progress, including in an infamous video that purported to show one of its trucks operational and moving when it was really just rolled down a hill.
A volcano erupted on Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula yesterday near a town that was evacuated last month after a series of earthquakes signaled an eruption was coming. The government said the volcanic activity was the most powerful the area had seen since a major disaster in the 1970s.
The Energy Information Administration expects US oil production from major US shale formations to decline for the third month in a row to 9.692 million barrels per day in January, even as Permian Basin output is projected to hit a record 5.986 million bpd.
Additionally, shale gas production is set to fall to 99 Bcf/d in January, which would mark the fifth straight month of declines
(Monday market close) Bullish investors picked up where they left off last week, sending the Dow Jones Industrial Average® (DJI) to a fourth consecutive record high close as the market extended a holiday-season rally behind ongoing optimism that 2024 will bring lower interest rates and a potential "soft landing" for the economy.
