Gelsinger bet the farm on the foundry and poured billions into it, some of 
which was supposed to come from Biden's CHIPS act.

retires/

December 1 was a Sunday and his 'retirement' caught a lot of people 
flatfooted.  Gelsinger, Zinsner and others are being sued over a laundry 
list of alleged violations of securities law and misleading shareholders 
over the Intel Foundry spinoff. It's further complicated by the politics 
involved in the federal funding. If the Ohio plant is finished it will 
still be trailing TSMC's technology.
