☆ Activist Jana Partners calls for a strategic review at Wolfspeed. Here’s how it may develop
  + stars: | 2024-04-27 | by ( Kenneth Squire | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
Activist Commentary: Jana is a very experienced activist investor founded in 2001 by Barry Rosenstein. Wolfspeed is the world's leading producer of silicon carbide, or SiC, and a manufacturer of silicon carbide applications. Jana also recommends that the board commences a review of strategic alternatives, including a possible sale of the company. At Freshpet, Jana also made operational and capital allocation recommendations in addition to reviewing a sale of the company. Here, there has been no such mention of a "Jana Dream Team," but it is a little too early for that.

As a graduate student in materials science in the early 1980s, John Palmour took a chance on an unproven way to make semiconductors, substituting silicon carbide for the usual pure silicon. Silicon carbide had long been seen as a promising chip material, especially in applications involving lots of power and heat. The rub was that it was hard to avoid defects in the tricky process of growing silicon carbide crystals. Because the material is extremely hard, it also was difficult to slice into the required sizes.
