Here's Why Aehr Test Systems Blasted Higher Today (Hint: It's AI Related)

Key Points Major new orders lifted the stock today. Speculation will turn to who that customer might be, but in any case, Aehr is diversifying its end markets. Its core end market is likely to return to growth in time. 10 stocks we like better than Aehr Test Systems › Shares in Aehr Test Systems (NASDAQ: AEHR) had blasted higher by more than 20% at 10 a.m. today on the news of follow-on orders for its artificial intelligence (AI) processor volume production test and burn-in solutions. New orders, new optimism? The news comes less than two weeks after the company released its fourth-quarter 2025 earnings report. Back then, CEO Gayn Erickson took a cautious approach to financial guidance for 2026, saying, "While we remain confident in Aehr's long-term growth prospects, we continue to experience some timing-related delays in order placements due to tariff-related uncertainty, particularly in our first quarter." The order delays, or at least some of them, were cleared much more quickly than Erickson may have expected. Aehr's hyperscaler customer Speculation will now turn to the identify of the "world-leading hyperscaler" that made the orders for eight of Aehr's Sonoma ultra-high-power systems, not least as the orders result in "a more than doubling of the number of production systems with this customer." It's impossible to know unless Aehr or the customer itself divulges the information. Still, a quick look at Aehr's customer list in its latest investor presentation shows Alphabet's Google and Microsoft -- good places to start looking. Image source: Getty Images. Aehr's long-term growth prospects In a sense, the customer doesn't matter as much as the fact that Aehr continues to diversify away from the currently challenged silicon carbide (SiC) wafer-level burn-in (WLBI) test solutions market and into new growth markets. The demand for SiC WLBI equipment is primarily driven by electric vehicles, and the softening of investment in EVs is slowing down demand. However, Aehr's new AI-driven markets will strengthen the company's long-term growth prospects, and it's only a matter of time before EV investment picks up again, leaving Aehr well positioned for long-term growth.

Atlas Copco shares fall 7% after Q2 profit miss and order decline

July 18 (Reuters) - Swedish industrial group Atlas Copco ( opens new tab reported on Friday a second-quarter adjusted operating profit below market expectations and a decline in orders, sending its shares down 7%. Operating profit, before items affecting comparability, fell to 8.41 billion Swedish crowns ($870.30 million) for the April-June period against a year-earlier 9.79 billion crowns. Analysts were expecting 8.66 billion on average, LSEG data showed. "While the outlook for the global economy continues to be uncertain, Atlas Copco Group expects that the customer activity will remain at the current level," the maker of air treatment systems, construction gear and power tools said in a statement. Shares in the company dropped 7.6% at 1130 GMT after they were down less than 1% ahead of the report. Atlas Copco's order intake fell 8%, or 1% on an organic basis, to 40.1 billion Swedish crowns in the second quarter, mainly due to a negative currency effect, the group said in a statement. In Europe, the orders fell by 2%, while in North America, which accounted for slightly more than a quarter of the group's revenue and order intake last year, they were unchanged.
