Pass: Cree and C&C (fromerly C3) have always worked closely together. C3 was a brainchild of the Hunter brothers to realize the market potential of silicon carbide as a gemstone (moisanite). C3 paid a lot of money to Cree in the past for gemstone quality moisanite, and also paid for R&D and equipment. (This money had been raised in the C3 IPO) This benefitted Cree by increasing revenues at that time.
Now Cree does not need revenues from C&C, but must honor contracts to supply C&C with moisanite. There is no other supplier of gem quality moisanite. Besides, if marketed correctly, moisanite jewelry could still potentially become a significant money maker for both companies.
If C&C had been a success, Greenberg would have nothing to say. Unfortunately, till now C&C has not been a success. This has no bearing on Cree.
Obviously you and I both believe Greenberg and his short seller friends are very, very wrong about the prospects for Cree. wj
