Does anyone know where this bunker is? Does it make sense now, why Concaves made his son the CFO.
Nobody seen it coming.
Could this Bunker be in Brazil?
I warned, that the CEO of Cliffs, should never send money to feed the enemy with a war going on. I can't believe that he even made it public. And then got involved promoting a plandemic, injuring employees across the board. Made public offerings, in cash bonuses. Are CC's being transmitted from this bunker since both CEO and CFO were carefully positioned?
Where is this Bunker and why did this pic surface?
I believe, the acquisition may be a front to remove Concaves.

CLF reports (not pretty) 3Q24 results:
https://www.clevelandcliffs.com/investors/news-events/press-releases/detail/662/cleveland-cliffs-reports-third-quarter-2024-results Cliffs’ Chairman, President and CEO Lourenco Goncalves said: “In Q3, weaker demand and pricing drove tighter margins, and ultimately led us to temporarily idle our Cleveland #6 blast furnace. We achieved our lowest unit cost since 2021, exceeding our already aggressive cost reduction targets, but that was not enough to offset the negative impact of two of our top four automotive clients who continue to underperform their own expectations. Due to our high exposure to the automotive sector, Cliffs was more affected than our competitors.
…“For 2025, we’ve set a much lower capital budget... Additionally, lower coal costs will bring a $70 million benefit next year compared to 2024. We expect steel demand to rebound in early 2025, supported by a number of economic and political factors. With Stelco’s assets and our cost reductions, we’re well-positioned to capitalize on this upswing and will be able to reduce acquisition debt quickly with healthy free cash flow.” The stock is -5% in AH trading. CC Tuesday at 8:30am ET.
3Q24 highlights (excluding Stelco acquisition, which closed after end of quarter)
• Revenue of $4.6B, -10% YoY
• Steel shipments of 3.8M tons, -6% YoY

Concaves and Son Cesspool, readies the bunker after tricking workforce and paying each $3,000 to take untested and unproven garbage. He also gave $100,000 to enemy mafia during wartime to feed enemy combatants. He's a monster in plain clothes.
He's an animal.
Why wasn't this info out and made public when Draper pulled him into Cliffs to be elected by shareholders as CEO.
Now we know that he really doesn't care about the company he represents as with Metals USA where he had to shell $300,000 to the victim.
The $3000 bonuses he paid employees to be injured during the plandemic and shareholders company money he gave the enemy during war time could seriously impact and cost the company a fortune. Lourenco made his son the CFO so he could sign the checks for both mistakes. Who knows what else this animal from the Congo has done behind closed doors after ripping off the Mesabi Trust for $70,000,000 and being caught.
Cliffs is on shaky ground as it is, what next?
Who is this animal from Brazil, with his son, CFO of CLF, who seem to be holed down in a bunker of some sort

If you can read, I was talking about loss of revenue PERIOD and has nothing to do with the 70+ million they now owe MSB for robbing their lease agreement based on production since 2021.
That 70+ million has to be paid by Oct. 6
The drop in revenue, this quarter and beyond is based on production and if automotive production is limited, who's buying the product.
Why U.S. auto factories are so unproductive
https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/27/why-us-auto-factories-are-so-unproductive.html
Where is the Brazilian CEO and his kid, the CFO, anyway? Are they doing the CC's from a bunker somewhere?

I disagree and short's don't care. $70,000,000 is a lot of money to cheat MSB out of. Unexpected drop in revenue won't sit well with anybody.
The Brazilian CEO is a wrecking ball and won't stop
First he's caught groping employees from his past and fined. Then he's giving company funds to foreign wartime criminals. Then he's bribing employees to inject unsafe, untested horse shit. Now he's ripping off MSB and threatening the employment and lively hood of Northshore miners, to teach MSB a lesson to bargain lease rates. What next as he also went political, congratulating an administration that most believe doesn't exist. The CEO has really lost it and some believe he became a cracked pot. Maybe just stressed out but definitely a mess and not the same.
Look at the Pic. WTF is going on?
People are figuring out, he's not what most have expected of him. And what's up with the filthy unclean photo of him and his kid, CFO Cessor holed up somewhere. WTF
I believe shareholders need to review his job description and maybe elect somebody who will take the position seriously.
Where the hell is this? Notice Cessor's there, probably with the company checkbook, just in case. Are they holed up in a Bunker like many elites in fear. Wearing Military clothing and Congo charms. What is this?

Mesabi Trust Announces Arbitration Final Award (9/10/24)
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AAA Arbitration Final Award
As previously reported, on October 14, 2022, Mesabi Trust initiated arbitration against Northshore Mining Company (“Northshore”), the lessee/operator of the leased lands, and its parent, Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (“Cliffs”), with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The Trust sought an award of damages relating to Cliffs’ and Northshore’s underpayment of royalties in 2020, 2021, and the first four months of 2022 by virtue of Cliffs’ and Northshore’s failure to use the highest priced arm’s-length iron ore pellet sale from the preceding four quarters in pricing certain pellet shipments from 2020 through the first four months of 2022. The Trust also sought declaratory relief related to the Trust’s entitlement to certain documentation and to the time when Cliffs’ and Northshore’s royalty obligations accrue.
The evidentiary hearing was completed before a panel of three arbitrators in March 2024 under the commercial rules of the AAA. Post-hearing briefs were exchanged in May 2024. Post-hearing oral arguments and final submissions were concluded in June 2024. The Trust received the final award on September 6, 2024, which unanimously awarded the Trust damages in the amount of $59,799,977 for underpaid royalties in 2020, 2021 and the first four months of 2022, plus pre-award interest in the amount of $11,288,269, calculated at the rate of 10% simple interest per annum from the date of the initial demand through September 1, 2024, and continuing to accrue until paid. Pursuant to the award, Cliffs and Northshore must pay the Trust the amounts specified in the Award by no later than October 6, 2024. The Tribunal approved the parties’ stipulated Consent Award approving the Trust’s ongoing entitlement to certain documentation related to verifying royalty calculations. The Tribunal denied the Trust’s request for declaratory relief regarding the time at which Cliffs’ and Northshore’s royalty obligations accrue.

U.S. Steel Stock Is Rising. The Politics Are Getting More Muddled.

Shares of United States Steel were rising Wednesday after a report that the government decided to delay a review of the company’s potential takeover by Japanese steel firm Nippon Steel
5401

.
This deal has plenty of political intrigue as both Democratic and Republican politicians jockey for support from labor in swing states such as Pennsylvania, where U.S. Steel
X
2.62%
is based. That hasn’t been great for investors.
Tuesday, Bloomberg reported that the U.S. would delay its decision on whether to approve the merger based on national security concerns until after the November presidential election. Nippon Steel declined to comment. U.S. Steel didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
“Can we get a Japanese translation for Quid Pro Quo,” quipped Gordon Haskett analyst Don Bilson in a Wednesday report, pointing out that the reported decision to delay came after the U.S. and Japan discussed curbs on exports of semiconductors to China. “A cynic might see [the chip and steel] reports as two peas in the same pod….to get the Japanese on board with China curbs, [America] has given the Japanese a wink that Nippon Steel will get the approval it needs after the election.”
U.S. Steel stock rose more than 4% in early trading, though by late morning, it had slipped back for a gain of 2.1% to $37. The S&P 500
SPX
0.01%
was flat and the Dow Jones Industrial Average
DJIA
-0.03%
was down 0.2%.
It has been a wild ride for investors lately. In August, Cleveland-Cliffs
CLF
-0.38%
bid $35 a share in cash and stock for U.S. Steel. Then in December, U.S. Steel agreed to be bought by Nippon Steel for $55 a share in cash.
Nippon Steel is the fourth-largest steel maker in the world, and has committed to spending $2.7 billion modernizing U.S. Steel’s American operations. That is significant, given that Wall Street projects U.S. Steel to generate about $1.7 billion in cumulative free cash flow in 2025 and 2026.
Still, the deal has faced political opposition from both sides of the aisle and from the steelworkers union, which backed the original Cleveland-Cliffs bid. A report that President Joe Biden was set to block the deal on national security grounds sent U.S. Steel shares to $29 each from about $38. Now, shares are almost back to $38.
The move on Wednesday shows that investors believe there is still a chance the deal will go through. Blocking the transaction never made a lot of economic sense. Japan is an ally, Nippon Steel is the far larger and better-capitalized company, and the merger doesn’t change domestic market shares substantially. If the U.S. Steel/Cleveland-Cliffs merger happened, for instance, the pair would have a greater market position in areas such as steel for critical automotive applications.
Here is a way to think about the odds of the deal going through. If the $30 range is the “no deal” price for U.S. Steel stock and $55 is the ultimate upside if Nippon Steel is successful, with the stock at about $37, investors currently put a 30% chance of the merger happening. If the stock was right between $30 and $55 the odds would be about 50%.
Coming into Wednesday trading, U.S. Steel stock was down about 26% year to date. Most of that decline is related to diminished expectations that the Nippon Steel merger will be completed.
