Is Amalgamated Financial Corp. (NASDAQ:AMAL) a buy in 2026?

Where AMAL is headed
Amalgamated is the oddest bank in America, and that is precisely why it compounds. Its deposit base is a who's-who of labor unions, Democratic political committees, progressive non-profits, climate funds and foundations. These are sticky, mission-aligned depositors who do not shop around for 15 extra basis points on a CD. That gives AMAL a structurally low cost of funds in a world where everyone else is bleeding deposits to Treasury bills and money market funds. The bank just posted +23.5% revenue growth with a 50.8% operating margin and 34% net margin, numbers that would be considered strong at a tech company and are frankly absurd for a $1.4B regional bank.
