The Department of War, the renamed Pentagon, has announced a $1.5 billion loan commitment aimed at strengthening the US semiconductor supply chain, with the funds going to chipmaker Wolfspeed. The move reflects continued federal efforts to reduce reliance on foreign chip production and secure domestic manufacturing of critical semiconductor components, drawing attention from the tech industry.
