Why is United States Steel Up Today?

United States Steel Co. (NYSE:X) Stock Moves on Deal Progress and Analyst Views

  • Renewed optimism around Nippon Steel’s $14.9 billion takeover bid after President Trump backed a “partnership” structure, promising U.S. headquarters retention and 70,000 jobs
  • U.S. government agreement to hold a “golden share” ensures strategic control, smoothing regulatory hurdles for the transaction
  • Jefferies Financial Group raised its price target on X to $55.00 (from $50.00) while maintaining a Hold rating, reflecting improved M&A visibility
  • Unusually high call‐option volume—up 99% day-over-day—indicates rising bullish sentiment among derivatives traders
  • Wolfe Research reiterated a Peer Perform rating, signaling unchanged longer‐term view
  • X continues to appear on multiple sector screeners (construction, transportation, real estate, oil), highlighting broad market interest
  • A Benzinga report noted at least one analyst has turned less bullish, flagging valuation and cyclical demand risks in steel

Investors are balancing strong M&A catalysts and price target upgrades against pockets of analyst caution and broader demand uncertainties in the steel sector.
