Wolfspeed Plunges 22.22% on Bankruptcy Filing

On June 23, 2025, Wolfspeed's stock plummeted by 22.22% in pre-market trading, marking a significant downturn for the company.

Wolfspeed has announced its intention to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, aiming to seek approval for a restructuring plan that will reduce its debt by $4.6 billion and lower interest payments. The company plans to emerge from bankruptcy by the end of the third quarter of 2025, with creditors taking control of the company's operations.
