Enovix Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENVX#NASDAQ">ENVX</a>) shares are trading lower Monday after the company announced the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42507183/search-to-replace-enovix-cfo">departure of its CFO</a>. 
What Happened: Enovix announced that CFO Farhan Ahmad has left the company. Enovix further announced that it&#8217;s currently searching for a new CFO.
&#8220;Our search will prioritize finding a CFO with an outstanding record at investor relations and a transparent communication style,&#8221; said T.J. Rodgers, executive chairman of Enovix.
&#8220;I have always been completely open with investors, even on the details of problems, as demonstrated in my two-hour presentation on January 3, 2023, which was Raj Talluri&#8217;s first day as our new CEO. And I will institutionalize that standard in our IR group over time.&#8221;

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy ENVX Stock</h3>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Enovix &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. In the case of Enovix, which is trading at $8.09 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 12.36 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
ENVX Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/envx">Enovix shares</a> were down 14.5% at $7.67 at the time of publication, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Adobe's Options: A Look at What the Big Money is Thinking

Jim Carrey Returns To Acting, Saying, &#8216;I Bought A Lot Of Stuff,&#8217; Joining A Growing List Of Retired Actors Returning For Financial Reasons
For <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/11/41982378/trumps-win-has-celebrities-saying-goodbye-america-see-where-theyre-going">Hollywood celebrities</a>, retirement does not necessarily mean ending one&#8217;s career. Jim Carrey recently disclosed that, as formerly one of the highest-paid actors in the world, the majority of his motivation for returning to acting was financial.&nbsp;
After Sonic the Hedgehog 2, the 62-year-old actor, who starred in classic films like The Truman Show and Liar Liar, declared in 2022 that he was retiring. At the time, he said he would only return for a special project that felt like it was written &#8220;in gold ink.&#8221;
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li>Many are using this retirement income calculator to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a></li>
</ul>
Fast-forward less than two years, Carrey is back in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, playing Dr. Robotnik and his character&#8217;s grandfather. At the film&#8217;s London premiere, Carrey admitted, &#8220;I came back to this universe because I get to play a genius, which is a bit of a stretch. And it's just … I bought a lot of stuff and I need the money, frankly.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Jim Carrey explains his return to playing Dr. Robotnik in &quot;Sonic the Hedgehog 3&quot;: &quot;I bought a lot of stuff and I need the money, frankly.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/pIFJPuAyRM">pic.twitter.com/pIFJPuAyRM</a>
&mdash; AP Entertainment (@APEntertainment) <a href="https://twitter.com/APEntertainment/status/1866579281045811233?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 10, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
While he joked about his financial situation, Carrey said the franchise's heartfelt story drew him back. With the first two Sonic movies grossing a combined $725 million globally, it's clear this isn't just a passion project – it's a smart paycheck.
See Also: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $70 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
Carrey isn't alone in returning to work to help balance the books. Hugh Grant, who plays an Oompa Loompa in the 2023 Wonka film, also admitted financial motivation. &#8220;I slightly hate [making films], but I have many children and need money,&#8221; Grant said at a press conference. The 63-year-old actor, who has five kids, shared that he found motion-capture work for the role &#8220;very uncomfortable&#8221; but took the part anyway.
Both Carrey and Grant were major stars at their peaks. During his heyday, Carrey commanded $20 million per movie, while Grant became a romantic-comedy legend. But big incomes don't always last forever. Carrey, for example, has been trying to sell his lavish Los Angeles mansion for nearly two years, cutting the price from $28.9 million to $19 million in September. He bought the property in 1994 for $3.8 million, but despite the discounts, it's clear he's looking for a significant profit.

For Grant, who has once said he &#8220;pretty much hated any other film&#8221; he's ever been in, acting seems like a reluctant necessity to fund his large family. Similarly, despite his fortune, Carrey seems to be making choices to keep his financial footing steady.
These honest admissions show a growing trend among stars who find <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/retirement-planning-guide">retirement</a> less permanent than they thought. Whether it's a return for the love of storytelling, financial security or both, Carrey, Grant and others, remind us that even Hollywood royalty can face the reality of balancing the books – albeit with seven-figure paychecks.

Aehr Test Systems (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEHR#NASDAQ">AEHR</a>) stock is trading higher on Monday after the company announced that it secured a $10 million order for artificial intelligence semiconductor testing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42505803">equipment</a>.
The Details: The $10 million order includes multiple high-power FOX-XP wafer-level test and burn-in systems, as well as several sets of Aehr&#8217;s proprietary WaferPak Contactors.
This technology allows customers to perform production wafer-level burn-in for AI processors. It helps reduce costs and improve yields by identifying early life failures during production while the devices are still in wafer form, prior to assembly into modules or systems.
&#8220;This marks a technology and commercial breakthrough for Aehr as it significantly expands the market opportunities for our FOX-XP wafer level test and burn-in systems,&#8221; said Gayn Erickson, CEO of Aehr.
The first FOX-XP wafter system is scheduled to ship immediately, with the remaining systems and initial WaferPaks set to be delivered within 90 days.
