SMU’s Week in Review: June 16-20

With so much happening in the news cycle, we want to make it easier for you to keep track of it all. Here are highlights of what’s happened this past week and a few upcoming things to keep an eye on.

Let’s kick off this review with this week’s landmark moment in the long-running drama starring U.S. Steel, Nippon Steel, and the US government. The two companies finalized their “partnership,” which includes the unusual “Golden Share” provision for the feds. It took nearly two years, a couple of presidents, several lawsuits, and a lot of heated rhetoric. And U.S. Steel will remain in its hometown of Pittsburgh. You can check out the terms of the deal, as well as a timeline of the saga.
