United States Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing Peter Navarro said Thursday that Washington will maintain tariffs on steel and aluminum with no exemptions for the European Union.“There will be no exemptions, no exclusions for steel and aluminum tariffs,” Navarro told reporters. He noted that the U.S. added more than 400 new products to the tariff list this week to curb manipulation and circumvention. “Every time we try to give an exemption or exclusion to one of our allies, they abuse it totally. We learned that it was a slippery slope,” Navarro said, recalling Trump’s previous term in office.Navarro also praised the administration’s 15% tariff on cars, describing it as a cornerstone of Trump’s trade strategy with Europe. “Anybody who criticizes Trump’s policy has to look at the president’s magnificent achievement in dealing with the EU,” he said.His comments come after the U.S. and EU&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/us-eu-announce-tariffs-autos-pharma/chsSuh2Rdid">issued</a> a joint statement earlier on Thursday, formalizing the trade deal announced back in July. The statement also included the possibility of lowering the 15% tariffs on cars, but only if Europe takes steps to lower tariffs on imported U.S. goods as promised.“In many ways I can’t think of a deal more important than the one with the EU. It is, after all, one of the largest entities in the world. It’s important not just economically but strategically, yet for many, many years it has been taking unfair advantage of the U.S.—consistently higher tariffs, consistently higher non-tariff barriers,” Navarro added.U.S. markets were trending lower ahead of Powell’s speech at Jackson Hole on Friday. The&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/SLX">VanEck Steel ETF</a> (SLX) fell 0.5% in afternoon trade, and the&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/IYM">iShares U.S. Basic Materials ETF</a> (IYM) edged 0.1% lower.

The White House is sending fresh signals on Nippon Steel’s proposed acquisition of U.S. Steel (X), with the President set to speak Friday at a Pittsburgh rally celebrating what he called a “planned partnership.”U.S. Steel’s stock rose nearly 1% after the President’s schedule was announced.Trump is set to deliver remarks at 5 p.m. ET on Friday at a U.S. Steel facility in Pennsylvania, a key swing state he carried in the 2024 election. The White House&nbsp;said he will speak about the “U.S. Steel Deal.”Supporters of the transaction are hoping his visit to the state, where U.S. Steel is headquartered, will cap a tumultuous 18-month effort by Nippon Steel to acquire the American company, which has faced numerous setbacks, including union opposition and two national security reviews.However, the final outcome remains uncertain. After initially appearing to endorse the transaction in a Truth Social post last Friday, Trump walked back expectations during comments to reporters on Sunday, characterizing the arrangement as an “investment” that would leave control with the U.S.“This will be a planned partnership between United States Steel and Nippon Steel, which will create at least 70,000 jobs, and add $14 Billion Dollars to the U.S. Economy,” Trump wrote in his post. “I will see you all at U.S. Steel, in Pittsburgh, on Friday, May 30th, for a BIG Rally. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!”White House trade adviser Peter Navarro echoed the sentiment on Thursday, saying, “U.S. Steel owns the company. Nippon Steel is going to have some involvement but no control.”The President has until next Thursday to issue a formal decision following last week’s conclusion of a second national security review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S.Nippon Steel has reportedly offered to invest $14 billion in U.S. operations, including $4 billion for a new mill, if the Trump administration approves the merger.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/X">U.S. Steel’s stock</a> has gained 57% this year and 44% over the past 12 months.&nbsp;For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/palantir-in-talks-with-irs-social-security-as-federal-role-expands-under-trump/ch0uGdDRbu3">Palantir Reportedly In Talks With IRS, Social Security As Federal Role Expands Under Trump</a>

Peabody Energy (BTU) stock rose 5.6% on Monday after the company indicated that it might choose to terminate its $3.8 billion deal to buy Anglo American’s steelmaking coal assets.The company said that it has notified Anglo American of a material adverse change impacting the deal, related to the Moranbah North Mine, which remains inactive following what was described as a gas ignition event on March 31."While we have remained on track to complete the steelmaking coal acquisition from Anglo, the issues at Moranbah North have created significant uncertainty around the transaction," CEO Jim Grech said.The deal was expected to close in mid-2025."A substantial share of the acquisition value was associated with Moranbah North, yet there is no known timetable for resuming longwall production," Grech added.Anglo American said that it does not believe that the stoppage at Moranbah North constitutes a material adverse change, and it would continue to work with Peabody to address its concerns.While Donald Trump’s favorable policies towards coal have renewed enthusiasm around the sector, tariffs on steel imports and an ongoing trade war between the U.S and China have dampened the demand outlook.As reported by The Fly, BMO analysts stated that Peabody's actions are unsurprising given that the Moranbah mine event coincides with the currently soft operating environment and a more challenging debt market.The brokerage noted that this event does not constitute a material adverse change on its own, and Peabody’s claim would likely be challenged.Retail sentiment on Stocktwits was in the ‘bearish’ (43/100) territory, while retail chatter was ‘low.’<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:854/85;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/BTU_M_Ay_6_JPG_628e7198e4.webp" alt="BTU’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 01:22 a.m. ET on May 6, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="854" height="85"><figcaption>BTU’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 01:22 a.m. ET on May 6, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>One retail trader was pleased that the management was not buying a “non-working” asset.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/taxplanr/message/613548944</stembedurl><a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BTU">Peabody Energy stock</a> have fallen 36% year to date (YTD).Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/celanese-stock-gains-after-hours-on-q1-profit-beat-company-sees-no-direct-tariff-impact-in-q2/chi4uAnRb1K">Celanese Stock Gains After-Hours On Q1 Profit Beat; Company Sees No Direct Tariff Impact In Q2 — Retail Bulls Elated</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

You don't understand who you are,” he&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDmOdTbTVGg">said</a> at the press conference.“You did not learn anything since 1945,” he added. “You did not learn how good we are, how gracious we are, how magnanimous we are, how forgiving we are.”He also said that he has researched how to import dogs from Japan because he wants to go after Nippon's CEO for his money, "his house, and his dog," according to Koyfin’s transcript.&nbsp;Goncalves revealed that Cleveland-Cliffs had developed an “all-American solution” to secure U.S. Steel, emphasizing that his strategy prioritizes workers and American industry.&nbsp;Japan has refrained from commenting on Goncalves's recent comments, according to a report by the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/01/14/companies/japan-clevelandcliffs-ceo/">Japan Times</a>.&nbsp;“We are aware of the news reports, but the government would like to refrain from commenting on every single statement made by the management of single companies,” Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi told a regular news conference, dodging questions on the matter.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1303/295;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Screenshot_2025_01_14_133545_57370619a6.png" alt="Screenshot 2025-01-14 133545.png" width="1303" height="295"><figcaption>Cleveland-Cliffs Corp.

Cleveland-Cliffs Stock Dips As CEO’s Anti-Japan Rant Adds Fuel to U.S. Steel Bid Controversy: Retail Sentiment Sours

Cleveland-Cliffs CEO Lourenco Goncalves' comments about Japan’s trade practices and U.S. Steel’s sale to Nippon have drawn investor scrutiny on Stocktwits.

U.S. Steel Corp. (X) shares climbed over 3% on Tuesday morning after the company, alongside Japan's Nippon Steel, filed lawsuits to contest President Joe Biden's decision to block their proposed merger.&nbsp;The Biden administration had cited national security concerns in its decision, which the companies are now challenging in court, calling it an act of “unlawful political influence.”U.S. Steel and Nippon Steel have also launched a separate lawsuit against Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (CLF), its CEO Lourenco Goncalves, and David McCall, president of the United Steelworkers union.&nbsp;The suit alleges "illegal and coordinated actions aimed at preventing the transaction." Despite the legal actions, Cleveland-Cliffs shares rose 4.23% in early trade on Tuesday.Cleveland-Cliffs’ CEO, Goncalves, dismissed the allegations as “completely baseless,” referring to the merger as a "doomed-to-fail cash-out sale to Nippon Steel." The United Steelworkers union has yet to comment on the lawsuits.United Steelworkers has not yet issued a comment.&nbsp;Retail investors on Stocktwits were split between whether or not&nbsp;the President made the right call.&nbsp;According to an ongoing poll on the platform, 47% view the decision as ‘bad for business confidence’, while 40% agree with Biden’s decision to block the deal in order to safeguard national security.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1284/607;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/us_steel_nippon_merger_block_poll_763f95de29.jpg" alt="us steel nippon merger block poll.jpg" width="1284" height="607"><figcaption>Stocktwits Poll On President Joe Biden's Decision To Block The U.S. Steel, Nippon Steel Merger</figcaption></figure>The merger, under scrutiny since its December 2023 announcement, would&nbsp;elevate Nippon Steel to the position of the second-largest steelmaker globally, up from fourth place.Since the deal was announced, it has faced pushback not only from President Biden, but also President-elect Donald Trump.&nbsp;“I am totally against the once great and powerful U.S. Steel being bought by a foreign company,” wrote Trump on Truth Social last week. “Through a series of tax incentives and tariffs, we will make U.S. Steel strong and great again and it will happen FAST! As President, I will block this deal from happening. Buyer Beware!!!”Most of the pushback from politicians stems from a preference for U.S. Steel to be U.S.-owned and for the U.S. to make its own steel.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1295/314;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Screenshot_2025_01_07_095733_9cf8e52972.png" alt="Screenshot 2025-01-07 095733.png" width="1295" height="314"><figcaption>U.S. Steel Corp.
