The stock of Aehr Test Systems (AEHR +14.83%) got a lot of attention after rallying almost 681% over the past year. A little over half of that gain came in 2026 alone. Sounds like a stock worth a closer look, right?

Massive demand for its memory chips has driven prices higher over the last year, leading to record-breaking earnings for the company.

While some segments of the artificial intelligence (AI) investing trend have done well over the past few months, others haven't. However, most of these companies are still doing all right; it's just that market sentiment has shifted. The thing about market sentiment is that it always comes back
