Activist Investor Seeks to Oust U.S. Steel Chief Over Nippon Deal

U.S. Steel is facing pressure from activist investor Ancora, who is pushing to oust the company's leadership and end negotiations for a $14 billion takeover by Nippon Steel. Despite this, both U.S. Steel and Nippon Steel intend to continue their partnership. Ancora's involvement suggests potential instability for U.S. Steel as it navigates the challenges of union opposition and previous regulatory blocks on the takeover attempt.
