Acquisition announcements and the deal logic behind them, CEO transitions and the priorities they signal, corporate spinoffs, cost-cutting plans and the strategic pivots that mark a company's departure from a prior direction are the central subjects in this coverage. New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston and Phoenix are the business centers where most of the large-company strategy news originates, and where the analysts and investors who react to it are concentrated.

Leadership transitions produce a secondary wave of coverage as a new executive's first decisions reveal how far strategy will actually shift from what was announced.
