Questions about AMSF

What people ask.

Why is AMSF on Broken Stocks?

AMSF qualifies for the Amber List on decline depth. It is down -32.4% from its rolling 252-day high of $45.19, set on 2025-09-05 — 265d ago.

Is AMSF a falling knife?

Not by the strict technical definition. AMSF is down -32.4% from its 52-week high, but that high was set 265d ago — more than 120 days. A falling knife is usually a recent breakdown from a fresh high, not an established multi-quarter downtrend. AMSF is still on the Amber List for decline depth, but the freshness component of a falling knife is missing.

Is AMSF a buy?

Broken Stocks does not issue buy or sell recommendations. The list is a rules-based technical warning system. It tracks structural decline depth and recency — not company quality, management, fundamentals, or news. Always do your own research and consult a licensed advisor.

Where is AMSF trading inside its 52-week range?

At $30.56, AMSF sits 6.0% of the way from its 52-week low ($29.42) to its 52-week high ($48.54). A reading below 25% indicates price is hugging the bottom of the range; above 75%, the top.

How fast has AMSF been declining?

The current 32.4% decline accrued over 265d, which annualizes to roughly -44.6% per year. Annualized pace is a sanity check — a 30% decline in three months is a different signal than a 30% decline over two years.

How does AMSF compare to its sector?

There are 104 other Financial Services tickers on Broken Stocks: 50 Red, 34 Amber, 20 Watch, with 40 showing recovering structural signals. Median sector decline is -34.1% — AMSF's decline is shallower than the sector median.

Does AMSF's earnings date affect its tier?

No. Tiering is decided purely by decline depth and recency of the rolling-high date. The earnings date on file (2026-04-22) is shown for reference only — listings can move tier between scans based on closing prices, regardless of fundamentals or news events.
