Should You Buy Amalgamated Financial Corp (AMAL) Today? Analysis, Price Targets, and 2026 Outlook.
Analysis Updated At
2026/01/28
BUY for a beginner long-term investor right now. AMAL is in a clear uptrend (bullish moving averages) and just delivered a solid Q4 2025 earnings print with growth in revenue, net income, EPS, and strong deposit momentum. While short-term indicators look a bit overheated and options positioning is defensively skewed, the combination of improving fundamentals and rising Wall Street price targets supports buying now rather than waiting.
Technical Analysis
Trend is bullish: SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200 confirms an established uptrend. MACD histogram is positive (0.384) but contracting, suggesting upside momentum is still present but cooling. RSI_6 at 76.65 indicates the stock is stretched/overbought in the near term (more prone to pauses/pullbacks). Price (38.15 pre-market) is approaching resistance at R1=38.51 and below R2=40.00; key support is the pivot at 36.09 (then S1=33.68). Pattern-based forward stats in the dataset lean slightly negative over 1W to 1M, implying some near-term digestion risk even within the broader uptrend.
