Ahead of the 2024 presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris is making strategic moves to win over voters through a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40937579/kamala-harris-and-oprah-winfrey-to-host-virtual-event-to-sway-support-from-key-battleground-states-o">high-profile virtual event</a> with former talk show host Oprah Winfrey.
What Happened: The event, titled "Unite for America," is hosted by Winfrey from suburban Michigan, a crucial battleground state in the upcoming election. 
The livestream features celebrities like Bryan Cranston, Jennifer Lopez, and Meryl Streep, alongside stories from ordinary voters to amplify Harris&#8217;s message.
More than 295,000 viewers tuned in on YouTube alone, with the event also being streamed on other major social media platforms. 
Winfrey introduced Harris, who spoke about her sudden rise to the Democratic nominee after President Joe Biden&#8216;s unexpected exit in July. 
"I felt a sense of responsibility, to be honest with you, and with that comes a sense of purpose," Harris said. 
During the event, Harris discussed her plans to reduce housing costs and cut middle-class taxes, answering questions from voters in Michigan and Virginia. Harris has been focusing on digital engagement and controlled interactions, aiming to connect with voters who primarily consume news online.

Why It Matters: The virtual event comes at a critical time for Harris, who has been gaining ground in recent polls. A <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/09/40949853/harris-in-trouble-new-swing-state-poll-shows-trump-gains-ground-in-key-battleground-areas-for-20">recent poll</a> shows Harris trending up in the 2024 election polls of nationally registered voters, posting her largest lead in the weekly Morning Consult poll this week in the head-to-head matchup against former President Donald Trump.
However, the race remains tight, with high-profile endorsements playing a crucial role. Harris recently received her second endorsement in 179 years from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/09/40907893/kamala-harris-wins-second-endorsement-in-179-years-from-magazine-that-featured-works-from-nikola">oldest continuously published magazine in the U.S.</a>, which has featured works from luminaries like Nikola Tesla and Albert Einstein.
Additionally, Harris has been actively <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40933169/mark-cuban-teams-up-with-kamala-harris-to-protect-american-businesses-from-unfair-foreign-competitio">collaborating with influential figures</a> like billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban.

Kamala Harris Tells Oprah Winfrey She Felt A 'Sense Of Responsibility' After Biden's Sudden Exit: It Came With A 'Sense of Purpose'

Noted data scientist, Thomas Miller of Northwestern University, recognized for his precise election forecasts, has made a prediction for the forthcoming Trump vs. Harris presidential election.
What Happened: Miller, who accurately foresaw the results of the 2020 presidential and Georgia senatorial races, has come forward with a new prediction for the 2024 presidential election, <a href="https://fortune.com/2024/09/18/trump-vs-harris-election-odds-who-will-win/">reported</a> Fortune.
Miller&#8217;s approach, which utilizes data from political betting sites rather than conventional polls, has shown high accuracy in the past. &#8220;Political betting sites are the best at predicting the wisdom of the crowd,&#8221; Miller stated to Fortune. He contends that while polls mirror past sentiments, betting odds can offer a more precise prediction of future outcomes.
For the 2024 presidential race, Miller is again employing PredictIt, a U.S. political betting site, for his forecasts. He observes that the site has a steady group of investors and provides current data, making it a dependable source for his analysis.
According to Miller&#8217;s model, Harris is presently leading Trump. He ascribes this shift to several factors, including the recent Trump-Harris debate and a crucial endorsement for Harris. If the current trend persists, Miller anticipates a substantial victory for Harris in the upcoming election.
&#8220;It's gone from a drastic landslide in Trump's direction to a drastic landslide for Harris,&#8221; said Miller. He said it would now take an equally dramatic shift in Trump&#8217;s favor for the ex-president to come back into contention. Miller said as things stood now it appeared as if Harris would win big on November 5.
Miller&#8217;s predictions have been remarkably precise in the past, making his forecast a significant point of interest as the election nears. His unique approach to election forecasting offers a new viewpoint on the potential outcome of the Trump vs. Harris race.
Miller&#8217;s analysis suggests that as of September 10, millions of Trump supporters likely shifted, triggering a ripple effect that could eventually benefit Harris, though few see it yet.

Why It Matters: A recent poll taken after the September 10 presidential debate from the Trafalgar Group <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40869086/trump-vs-harris-new-poll-reveals-post-debate-swing-towards-this-candidate-in-key-state">showed Trump overtaking Harris</a> in North Carolina, with 48.4% to her 46%. Despite an underwhelming debate performance, Trump gained a 2% shift from Harris&#8217; supporters, narrowing the previously slim lead she held in earlier polls.
The trends reported by Benzinga showed Harris <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/09/40949853/harris-in-trouble-new-swing-state-poll-shows-trump-gains-ground-in-key-battleground-areas-for-20">gaining ground</a> in key battleground areas. Furthermore, Harris posted a record 6-point lead in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/09/40910999/trump-in-trouble-vice-president-harris-has-record-6-point-lead-in-2024-election-poll-after-debat">national poll</a> after the debate, indicating a strong momentum in her favor after the event.

Millions of Americans face tougher times managing their bills as inflation bites. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, about 40% of consumers say it&#8217;s getting &#8220;somewhat&#8221; to &#8220;very difficult&#8221; to cover their monthly expenses.&nbsp;
This struggle is set to deepen with the return of student loan payments, which paused for years during the pandemic. Add to that the cost of summer child care and vacations and it's no wonder many are feeling the heat. But there's one payment you can't afford to put on the back burner: your student loans.

Financial expert <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40304035/suze-orman-says-ignoring-this-will-ruin-your-investment-future-heres-what-you-must-do-now-to-sec">Suze Orman</a>, host of the popular &#8220;Women &amp; Money&#8221; podcast, warns that skipping student loan payments is not an option. "It should be a priority," she said.
Pushing student loans aside with everything else on your plate might be tempting, but ignoring them could land you in hot water. The restart of these payments in fall 2023 has forced many people to figure out how to squeeze them back into already-tight budgets. However, Orman stresses that this is one bill you can't sweep under the rug.
Trending: Founder of Personal Capital and ex-CEO of PayPal<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/evergreen-money"> re-engineers traditional banking with this new high-yield account — start saving better today.</a>
Orman offers practical advice for those overwhelmed: &#8220;Make a plan or a budget that works so you can pay [your student loans] each month.&#8221; Her suggestion? Start by trimming the fat from your spending.&nbsp;
&#8220;Give up eating out or other unnecessary expenses so you can start making your payments,&#8221; she advises. Cutting back on indulgences can free up the cash needed to keep up with loan payments and it's a simple step toward regaining control over your finances.

The silver lining is that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40879305/the-22-6-trillion-crisis-neither-harris-nor-trump-mentioned-but-its-the-top-concern-for-millions">Biden </a>administration has rolled out a new income-driven repayment (IDR) plan called the Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE) Plan. This plan could offer significant relief to borrowers, especially those on the lower end of the income scale.
According to the Department of Education, single borrowers earning $32,800 or less and families of four earning $67,500 or less won't need to make any payments at all. Even those earning more will see some savings – at least $1,000 annually compared to older IDR plans.

"With the new guidelines, many people's payments will be cut in half," Orman explained. This makes it much more manageable to stay on top of those monthly payments, reducing the risk of falling behind. For borrowers feeling stretched thin, this adjustment might just be their lifeline.
There's no sugarcoating it – budgeting for loan payments can feel like a juggling act. But as Orman points out, it's a necessity. &#8220;People need to remember not to put off paying your student loans. It's not going away; it should be the first monthly bill you pay. You can't bankrupt your student loan.&#8221;

The head-to-head matchup between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris could come down to how several swing states fall in the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election"> 2024 presidential election.</a>
A new poll shows which candidate is making up ground in the key seven states.
What Happened: Harris has been trending up <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/09/40910999/trump-in-trouble-vice-president-harris-has-record-6-point-lead-in-2024-election-poll-after-debat">in 2024 election polls</a> of nationally registered voters, posting her largest lead in the weekly Morning Consult poll this week in the head-to-head matchup.
A new poll of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/swing-states">swing state</a> voters, which covers seven key battleground states, could show a different picture.
Here are the results from the September Emerson College swing state <a href="https://emersoncollegepolling.com/september-2024-swing-state-polls-trump-and-harris-locked-in-tight-presidential-race/">polls </a>with the results from August in parentheses:
<ul>
<li>Arizona: Trump 49% (50%), Harris 48% (47%)</li>
<li>Georgia: Trump 50% (48%), Harris 47% (49%)</li>
<li>Michigan: Harris 49% (50%), Trump 47% (47%)</li>
<li>Nevada: Trump 48% (48%), Harris 48% (49%)</li>
<li>North Carolina: Harris 49% (48%), Trump 48% (49%)</li>
<li>Pennsylvania: Trump 48% (48%), Harris 47% (48%)</li>
<li>Wisconsin: Trump 49% (49%), Harris 48% (48%)</li>
</ul>
The results show that Trump leads Harris in four of the seven states and is tied with the vice president in one state. Harris leads Trump in two states. Each candidate led three states in the August poll.
Trump gained support in one state and lost support in two states, with four states remaining the same from August. Harris gained support in two states and lost support in four states.
"There has been marginal movement in the presidential election since the late August Emerson swing state polls before the presidential debate," Emerson College Polling executive director Spencer Kimball said.

</ul>
Why It's Important: The seven swing states in question together represent 93 electoral votes in the 2024 election. Six of the seven states above were won by Biden in the 2020 election with Trump winning North Carolina. Several of the states were flipped from Trump's win in the 2016 election.
A Marist poll recently found how swing state voters in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin would vote in the 2024 election if it were held today. The race for Pennsylvania and Wisconsin was close with Trump and Harris tied in Pennsylvania and Harris leading by one point in Wisconsin.
In the state of Michigan, Harris had a five-point lead over Trump.
The three states together represent 44 electoral votes and could prove important in the 2024 election. Trump was the first Republican presidential candidate to sweep the three states since Ronald Reagan in 1984, <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/09/19/us-news/trump-harris-neck-and-neck-among-likely-voters-in-pennsylvania-and-wisconsin-veep-up-5-in-michigan-polls/">according </a>to the New York Post. Biden won all three of the states in the 2020 election.
All seven swing states see voters pick the economy as the top issue ahead of the election. Immigration, threats to democracy and housing affordability are also top voter issues in swing states.
With less than two months until the 2024 election, the race between Harris and Trump remains close and swing states continue to be one of the most monitored polling items given their importance.

Atomera Incorporated (ATOM) Q1 2024 Earnings Call Transcript

PEGY, CGEM and IFBD among mid-day movers

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Nanotechnology, the science of manipulating matter at the atomic and molecular scale, is set to revolutionize numerous industries. Larger, more established firms often overshadow many promising undiscovered nanotech stocks. This presents a unique opportunity for savvy investors to explore high-growth prospects.



The global nanotechnology market is projected to grow significantly, with estimates suggesting it could reach <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/how-nanotechnology-market-driving-business-growth-gdfdf">$332.73 billion by 2032</a>. The technology&rsquo;s diverse applications in the healthcare, electronics, energy and materials science sectors have driven growth.



As the industry matures, the companies pioneering advancements in nanotech are poised to offer substantial returns. However, these investments come with risks typical of emerging technologies. However, this is where the greatest potential for gains comes from. There may not be any prospect for gains in the stock market without a proportionate amount of risk involved.



So, investors looking for undiscovered nanotech stocks should consider adding these three in June.



<h2>Nano Dimension (NNDM)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/nndm-stock-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Nano Dimension (NNDM stock) logo in an iPad, on the background their proprietary 3D printer"><div>Source: Spyro the Dragon / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Nano Dimension (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/nndm-stock-quote/">NNDM</a>) is a prominent player in the nanotechnology sector. It focuses on developing advanced 3D printing technologies and intelligent machines to fabricate additively manufactured electronics (AME).



Nano Dimension&rsquo;s primary product is its DragonFly Pro system, which utilizes conductive and dielectric nano-inks to produce high-performance electronic devices. These nano-inks enable the creation of multilayer PCBs (printed circuit boards), antennas, sensors and other functional electronic parts with high precision.



NNDM <a href="https://3dprint.com/310253/3d-printing-financials-do-nano-dimensions-q1-earnings-pave-the-road-to-profitability/">reported mixed financial results</a> for Q1 2024, showing positive trends and ongoing challenges. The company&rsquo;s revenue slightly decreased to $13.36 million from $14.97 million in the same quarter in 2023. Despite this drop in revenue, Nano Dimension managed to significantly cut its net loss to $34.8 million, down from $57.6 million the previous year. The company also achieved a notable improvement in gross margins, which rose to 46.2% from 43.9%, with an adjusted gross margin of 49.8%, up from 47.1%.&nbsp;



<h2>Atomera (ATOM)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="165" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/nanotechmsn-300x165.jpg" alt=""><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Atomera (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/atom-stock-quote/">ATOM</a>) is considered a nanotech stock due to its use of nanotechnology principles in developing its proprietary Mears Silicon Technology (MST). It enhances the performance and efficiency of semiconductor devices. Atomera&rsquo;s technology aims to improve the electrical characteristics of transistors, which are fundamental components in various electronic devices.



The company generates revenue primarily through licensing agreements with semiconductor manufacturers. These collaborations help integrate MST technology into commercial production.



The company <a href="https://ir.atomera.com/websites/atomera/English/3110/news-detail.html?airportNewsID=fb5b197a-1a84-4873-a7cc-a1defb91da26">made significant progress</a> with customers across all four market focus segments last quarter and recorded a record number of commercial proposals in the last three months. Notably, Atomera saw promising results in a new product category, Compound Semiconductors.



Financially, Atomera reported a net loss of $4.8 million, or $0.19 per share, for Q1 2024, a slight improvement from the $5 million net loss or $0.21 per share, in Q1 2023. Adjusted EBITDA showed a loss of $4 million, compared to a $4.2 million loss in the same period the previous year.



<h2>Aehr Test Systems (AEHR)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/semiconductor1600e-300x169.jpg" alt="semiconductor stocks Close-up electronic circuit board. technology style concept. representing semiconductor stocks. top semiconductor stocks to buy now. semiconductor stocks to sell"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Aehr Test Systems (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/aehr-stock-quote/">AEHR</a>) provides test and burn-in equipment for semiconductor manufacturers. Their advanced testing systems are critical for ensuring the reliability and performance of semiconductors, which often involve nanotechnology processes.



Aehr&rsquo;s test and burn-in systems detect early failures and ensure the long-term reliability of semiconductor devices. These systems apply electrical stress to components, identifying potential defects before they are integrated into end products.&nbsp;



Last quarter, <a href="https://www.aehr.com/2023/10/aehr-reports-continued-strong-revenue-and-earnings-for-the-first-quarter-of-fiscal-2024-on-strength-of-production-wafer-level-burn-in-products-for-silicon-carbide-semiconductors/">net revenue reached $20.6 million</a>, a 93% increase from the previous quarter. GAAP net income was $4.7 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, up from $589,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in Q1 2023. The company reported $18.4 million in bookings and a backlog of $22.3 million. Cash provided by operations was $3.9 million.



With the rising importance of semiconductors, AEHR stock will continue to be a strong performer, and its nanotech solutions will be a money-maker for the business.

Treasure Hunt: 3 Nanotech Stocks Wall Street Hasn't Discovered Yet

Riverwater Micro Opportunities Strategy Q2 2024 Commentary

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
<a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/technology/semiconductor/">Semiconductor stocks</a> are absolutely on fire right now. Investors are drawn to the promise of the chip sector, especially as it provides the raw computing power necessary to power the artificial intelligence revolution.



The industry&rsquo;s benchmark fund, the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NYSEARCA:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/smh-stock-quote/">SMH</a>), has soared over 75 percent over the past 12 months. And individual AI-related chip companies have posted even larger gains.



This might make it seem like <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/-stock-quote/"></a>it&rsquo;s too late to find bargains in the industry. And yet, the chip industry is broad. There are dozens of publicly-traded companies that take part and not all of them have seen an AI-driven boost, at least not yet. These are three semiconductor stocks to buy now that are, amazingly enough, near their 52-week lows &mdash; at least for the time being.



<h2>Astera Labs (ALAB)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/alab1600-1-300x169.png" alt="Person holding smartphone with logo of U.S. semiconductor company Astera Labs Inc. (ALAB) on screen in front of website. Focus on phone display. Unmodified photo."><div>Source: T. Schneider / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Founded in 2017, Astera Labs (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/alab-stock-quote/">ALAB</a>) has already made a big splash. 



The company IPOed earlier this year and has achieved a market capitalization of around $8 billion, which is an impressive sum for such a young company.<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/-stock-quote/"></a>



Astera designs, manufactures, and sells semiconductor-based connectivity solutions for cloud and AI infrastructure. 



Specifically, it focuses on its Intelligent Connectivity Platform which gives clients a broad range of data, network and memory products which deliver cloud and AI solutions at scale.



While ALAB stock technically IPOed for $36 per share, it closed its first trading day at $62 each. The stock would quickly go on to hit a peak of $95 as <a href="https://investorplace.com/2024/03/alab-stock-astera-labs-pops-a-stunning-70-after-ipo/">investors warmed up</a> to its AI potential.



Since then, however, skeptics have emerged with a focus around the company&rsquo;s valuation. 



That&rsquo;s valid, with the stock currently going for more than 100 times forward earnings. 



However, the company&rsquo;s revenues are expected to soar from $304 million in 2024 to $611 million in 2026 while reaching <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/ALAB/earnings/estimates">$1 billion</a> in 2028. That&rsquo;s simply amazing top-line revenue growth, and the fact that the company is already profitable is nice as well.



ALAB stock has now sunk to around $55/share putting it near its lowest point since its IPO launched. That could make it a compelling dip-buying opportunity for growth-focused investors.



<h2>Atomera (ATOM)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/semiconductor1600c-300x169.jpg" alt="AI. Circuit board. Technology background. Central Computer Processors CPU concept. Motherboard digital chip. Tech science background. Integrated communication processor. 3D illustration representing semiconductor stocks. Semiconductors Stocks to Sell"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Atomera (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/atom-stock-quote/">ATOM</a>) is a small semiconductor firm. Its name comes from the idea that it aims to deliver technology at the atomic level.



Specifically, it developed a patented, quantum engineered material called <a href="https://atomera.com/">Mears Silicon Technology</a> which enhances transistors. Atomera believes its MST technology can improve battery life, shrink device footprints and improve web server performance.



The company has been in business for many years, and it may be reaching an inflection point. Last year, it announced a pivotal <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230426005799/en/Atomera-Signs-Commercial-License-Agreement-with-STMicroelectronics">commercial licensing deal</a> with industry heavyweight STMicroelectronics (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/stm-stock-quote/">STM</a>).



This is a high-risk pick, to be sure, given Atomera&rsquo;s historical lack of meaningful commercial revenues. But in this market, it&rsquo;s hard to find technology companies at 52-week lows.



Unlike many firms with a slumping stock price right now, Atomera has reasons for optimism. The massive short interest, currently at <a href="https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=ATOM&amp;ty=c&amp;ta=1&amp;p=d">17% of the float</a>, could easily lead to a squeeze. And the STMicroelectronics licensing deal could be a precursor to more sustained commercial success.



<h2>Aehr Test Systems (AEHR)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/semiconductor1600a-300x169.jpg" alt="Close-up Presentation of a New Generation Microchip. Gloved Hand Holding Piece of Technological Wonder. Semiconductor stocks are in the news."><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Aehr Test Systems (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/aehr-stock-quote/">AEHR</a>) isn&rsquo;t quite at its 52-week lows anymore, as the stock has ripped higher over the past week. 



Still, down from a 52-week high of $54, shares are deep in the discount bin with the stock currently around $16.



Aehr Test Systems offers test solutions for testing, burning-in and semiconductor devices in wafer level, singulated die, and package part form and installed systems worldwide.&nbsp;



Because Aehr Test Systems is focused more on test systems for chips that go into consumer electronics, it has missed out on the recent AI boom. 



In fact, as sales of mobile phones, tablets and other such units has fallen, the company has seen weakness in demand for its chip testing systems. It is also involved in chips for autos, where business has also slumped with the recent downturn in <a href="https://investorplace.com/2024/06/the-3-electric-vehicle-stocks-best-positioned-for-long-term-success/">electric vehicles</a>.



But, the bottom appears to be near. Analysts are projecting a roughly 20% decline in earnings for its fiscal year 2024. However, Aehr Test Systems just delivered a better-than-expected earnings report and it dramatically <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/news/4123175-aehr-test-systems-stock-up-14-after-raises-fy24-revenue-guidance-above-estimates">raised guidance</a> for its fiscal year fourth quarter as well.



AEHR stock is still down 60% over the past 12 months. That&rsquo;s a grossly excessive decline given that the earnings trend has turned, and the company should return to double-digit growth in 2025.
