📝 Current bullish thesis on XFAB at $9, implied by track record of past successful European equity longs
Current bullish thesis on XFAB at $9, implied by track record of past successful European equity longs.
Evidence & details
- +NIST filings state XFAB is the only high volume SiC foundry in America, making it critical infrastructure.
- +First comprehensive pure play foundry for SiC/GaN.
- +Listed in CHIPS Act 2 blueprints with Nokia/Nvidia evaluations.
- +Production ramp expected 2027, volume H1 2028.
- ⚡Nvidia pushing 800 VDC drives demand for power semiconductors.
- ⚡Power semi players like NVTS and WOLF re-rating hard.
- ⚡Expected dual continent subsidies from US and EU governments.
- −Legacy auto and other cyclical drag (similar to Soitec).
- −Recent volatility and media labeling as memestock.

Just in case people are wondering about my track record with European equities: $RPI: $280 -> $800 (agentic AI hardware demand thesis). $LPK: ~$6, thesis at $13 -> $24.2 (glass cores substrates close monopoly) $SOI: $44 -> $181 (silicon photonics, monopoly over substrates) …

I genuinely think $XFAB is very compelling at $1.5B MC, despite recent volatility. Per NIST filings stated they were the only high volume SiC foundry in America. Making them extremely “critical infrastructure”… Verbatim from the US Gov. And they’re the first comprehensive pur…
Thesis: XFAB is compelling at $1.5B MC as a critical SiC/GaN pure-play foundry with US government recognition and CHIPS Act backing, positioned to benefit from power semiconductor re-rating and photonics ramp…
$XFAB (photonics + power semis) is an interesting long idea at $1.28B MC, that I took positions in. Given EU CHIPS act 2 is today as the catalyst for European photonics players. > 800 VDC power semi exposure to $NVDA push through $NVTS + $POWI > Silicon Photonics / CPO exposur…
Thesis: XFAB is a compelling long at $1.28B MC with photonics and power semis growth, low P/B, government backstop from EU and US CHIPS acts, and relationships with NVDA, NVTS, and POWI.
