    The semiconductor testing device company is up 130 percent over the past year as semiconductors have led the overall market higher. Aehr has benefitted operationally, with revenues up 93 percent over the past year, and earnings soaring by 694 percent.

    Even with that massive growth, shares are a bit pricey to the overall market and even many semiconductor names, trading at 60 times earnings.
    Action to take: Investors interested in the semiconductor space should keep an eye on shares. Aehr has little debt relative to the size of the company, and ample cash.
