Trump’s antitrust cops just signaled that big US mergers won’t get a free pass.

he new Trump administration in its second week provided an early sign that American companies won’t get a free pass when it comes to big mergers and acquisitions.
It came Thursday when Donald Trump’s antitrust cops at the Justice Department filed a lawsuit seeking to block Hewlett Packard (HPE) from acquiring rival Juniper Networks (JNPR).
The DOJ alleged that the $14 billion tie-up of the nation’s second- and third-largest providers of enterprise wireless networking would substantially lessen competition in that market.
