Aehr Test Systems Posts Weak Results, Joins Trump Media & Technology Group And Other Big Stocks Moving Lower In Tuesday's Pre-Market Session

U.S. stock futures advanced on Tuesday following Monday&#8217;s mixed close. Futures of all four major indices rose in premarket trade. Technology stocks dragged the Nasdaq down on Monday, whereas Dow Jones which has the least number of tech constituents rose in trade.
Members of President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s incoming economic team are considering a gradual increase in tariffs over several months, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-13/trump-team-studies-gradual-tariff-hikes-under-emergency-powers">reported </a>Bloomberg. This approach is designed to enhance negotiating leverage while minimizing the risk of a sudden rise in inflation.
Traders now await the consumer price inflation data this week on Wednesday, which will further clear the case for the Fed to pause the rate cuts.
The 10-year and two-year Treasury notes yielded 4.77% and 4.38%, respectively. The probability of having no change in the interest rates for the upcoming Jan. 31, 2025 decision was at 97.3%, according to CME Group&#8217;s FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>.

Cues From The Last Session
Wall Street experienced mixed trading on Monday. The Dow Jones comprised of 30 major companies, saw a substantial increase, driven by a shift of investment towards sectors outside of technology. In contrast, the Nasdaq, heavily weighted towards technology companies, experienced a slight dip. The broader S&amp;P 500 index saw a modest increase.
This market activity follows a period of two weeks of declining stock prices, primarily attributed to a sell-off in technology stocks. However, the Russell 2000 index, which tracks smaller-company stocks, showed a slight increase.
While technology stocks faced headwinds, the energy sector outperformed the market, fueled by rising oil prices. The healthcare and materials sectors also witnessed gains.
Dow rose 358.67 points, or 0.86%, to close at 42,297.12. Nasdaq dropped 0.38% to 19,088.10. The S&amp;P 500 inched up 0.16%, ending at 5,836.22. Russell 2000, on the other hand, rose 0.24% to 2,194.50 points.

Insights From Analysts
Despite Monday&#8217;s fall in technology stocks, Jeremy Siegel, the senior economist to WisdomTree said that growth stocks, particularly in the tech sector, remain dominant. &#8220;The AI-driven investment narrative continues to support these high-growth names, with no signs yet of a definitive shift toward value,&#8221; he added.
He described the markets as &#8220;overly optimistic&#8221; as the S&amp;P 500, trades at 23x forward earnings. According to Siegel, the consensus earnings growth of 16% for 2025 is likely too high and an 8–9% increase is more realistic. &#8220;Consequently, the market could see a correction as valuations adjust to higher rates and moderated growth expectations,&#8221; he said.
Analysts at BlackRock, on the other hand, said that they were &#8220;pro-risk&#8221; and overweight in U.S. stocks. However, they highlighted three areas that could change their view, which includes how U.S. tariffs and fiscal policy shape up.
They are also looking out for &#8220;corporate earnings and lofty tech valuations amid the artificial intelligence buildout&#8221; to see if this will sour the investor risk appetite. And lastly, the analysts said, &#8220;We look for elevated vulnerabilities, like surging bond yields as markets price out rate cuts and corporate debt refinancing at higher interest rates.&#8221;
CNBC&#8217;s Jim Cramer has offered <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/42967410/jim-cramer-says-one-two-punch-from-government-and-meta-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-led-to-nasdaqs-monday-decline-may-have-been-too-much-for-everyone">insights </a>into the recent struggles of the Nasdaq Composite, which failed to rally despite gains in other major indices. Cramer attributed the Nasdaq's decline to a "one-two punch" from the U.S. government. Over the weekend, the Biden administration introduced new restrictions on semiconductor exports, which Cramer criticized as "short-sighted," on Monday.

'The U.S. Has Initiated A Section 301 Investigation Into China's Mature Manufacturing Processes, Specifically Focusing On Production For Silicon Carbide Semiconductors' - DigiTimes Alert

In the current market session, Aehr Test System Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEHR#NASDAQ">AEHR</a>) share price is at $13.37, after a 2.12% decrease. Over the past month, the stock went up by 14.27%, but over the past year, it actually fell by 52.59%. With good short-term performance like this, and questionable long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>Aehr Test System P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 86.56 in the Semiconductors &amp; Semiconductor Equipment industry, Aehr Test System Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 13.93. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1734638483_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
