US Steel finally approved the deal offered by Japan's Nippon Steel, but there was opposition. The stocks have been trading at a price lower than purchase prices, reflecting investors' anxiety. What causes anxiety is a lack of trust in a foreign company. Some are concerned with the possibilities of laying off, closing plants, and undermining national security. The deal has paid attention to how Biden would take his stance as he competes with Trump over gathering votes from blue-collar workers.

I am more of a libertarian, but still, I wouldn't be able to be delighted if a country like a little brother bought a storied company like Toyota. If an adversary tried to do that, I would be upset. If such a thing happens, I might die of resentment. While basking in a distant place, telling hypocritically or generously is easy. Yet, people directly involved have different views.
