IRVINE, Calif., May 26, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Khang & Khang LLP (the “Firm”) announces a class action lawsuit against United States Steel Corporation (“U.S. Steel” or the “Company”) (NYSE: X ).

There has been no class certification in this case yet. Until certification occurs, you are not represented by an attorney. You may choose to take no action and remain a passive class member.
The Complaint states that throughout the Class Period, U.S. Steel issued materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: that while the Company was implementing its Carnegie Way program, it focused on cutting costs and did not make investments necessary to position U.S. Steel so that it could respond to improved market conditions; that the Company’s failure to invest in improving capital assets during the industry downturn, in order to report apparent financial improvements, meant that U.S. Steel had higher production costs than its competitors, even in the face of improved pricing, which would negatively impact its financial results; and that U.S. Steel was forestalling expensive capital equipment upgrades in order to boost its short-term financial results at the expense of long-term financial performance, leaving U.S. Steel in need of accelerated, costly equipment upgrades that would leave the Company years away from generating improved financial performance. Upon release of this information, U.S. Steel’s stock price fell materially, which caused investors harm according to the Complaint.
