LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Goldberg Law PC, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit against United States Steel Corporation (“U.S. Steel” or the “Company”) (NYSE: X). Investors who purchased the Company’s shares between November 1, 2016 and April 25, 2017 inclusive (the “Class Period”), are encouraged to contact the firm in advance of the July 3, 2017 lead plaintiff motion deadline.

The class in this case has not yet been certified, and until certification occurs, you are not represented by an attorney. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member.

The Complaint alleges that during the Class Period, U.S. Steel violated federal securities laws by making materially false and misleading public statements and/or failing to disclose material information about its outlook and expected financial performance. These false statements and material omissions kept the Company’s stock price trading at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period. On April 25, 2017, U.S. Steel reported a first quarter 2017 net loss of $180 million (or $1.03 per diluted share), which included an unfavorable adjustment of $35 million (or $0.20 per diluted share), associated with the loss on the shutdown of certain tubular assets. When this news was announced, U.S. Steel’s stock price dropped materially, which caused investors harm.

Goldberg Law PC represents shareholders around the world and specializes in securities class actions and shareholder rights litigation.
