What happened

Intel's board appointed semiconductor engineer Craig H. Barratt as its new independent chair, succeeding finance veteran Frank Yeary. This governance change consolidates authority around Barratt and CEO Lip-Bu Tan to focus on scaling Intel Foundry's R&D and manufacturing. Neutral: A board-level leadership change has no direct, immediate impact on component supply, pricing, or production.
