AMGStock and Options Trade Setup — Affiliated Managers Group, Inc.
NYSE · Alternative & Independent Asset Management · Low-liquidity options · Mid cap · ~$5.8B
AMG's business model is unusual — it acquires minority stakes in high-quality boutique asset managers, giving those firms access to capital and distribution while preserving the entrepreneurial culture that drives outperformance. AUM growth comes from both organic flows and new affiliate additions. The secular shift toward alternatives (private equity, hedge funds, real assets) benefits AMG disproportionately, as many affiliates manage strategies in these higher-fee categories. Share buybacks are aggressive — AMG has reduced its share count by over 40% in a decade, creating meaningful per-share EPS growth even in flat AUM environments. The stock screens cheap on earnings yield versus peers and the buyback alone provides a floor. Options are moderately liquid with straightforward directional setups.

AMG Options Setup — Frequently Asked Questions
Is AMG a good options trade today?+
Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (AMG) currently has an Amora Edge Score of 67/100, ranking it top 38% of today's scan. This composite score is built from four sub-signals — EMA cross, RSI zone, relative strength vs SPY, and volume surge — each scored 0–25. The current read is a bullish setup, so the algorithm is positioned bullish (calls / call debit spreads). A score above 65 typically warrants a trade card with stop and target; below that, the setup is on the watchlist but not actionable.
What is AMG's win rate on Stoptions.ai setups?+
AMG's historical win rate on closed Stoptions setups is 65%. Win rate is calculated as the percentage of past AMG trade cards that hit their target price before stopping out. Win rate is most meaningful once a ticker has 10+ closed trades — individual ticker rates can be noisy at smaller samples. Our portfolio-wide win rate across all closed trades is the more stable benchmark.
What strike and expiry does Stoptions.ai suggest for AMG?+
The strike and expiry are shown on the trade card at the top of this page when the setup is active. Stoptions.ai algorithmically selects strikes targeting delta 0.35–0.45 and expirations 30–45 days out, adjusted for current implied volatility rank (IVR). When IVR is high, the system favors call debit spreads to limit vega risk; when IVR is low, single-leg long calls are preferred. The card includes the contract symbol, mid-price entry, stop, and target.
How often is the AMG setup updated?+
Every 72 hours we refresh AMG's Amora Edge Score and trade card. The underlying scan runs daily at 9:00 AM ET (pre-market) and 9:30 AM ET (post-open), so any new signal change is reflected within one trading session. If AMG drops below the entry threshold or the regime shifts (e.g., SPY enters a confirmed bear), the trade card is replaced with a "no setup" notice automatically.
What does the Amora Edge Score measure for AMG?+
The Amora Edge Score is a 0–100 composite of four technical sub-signals applied to AMG: (1) EMA cross — is the 20-day above the 50-day with both trending up? (2) RSI zone — is momentum in the 50–70 sweet spot, or extended/weak? (3) Relative strength vs SPY — is AMG outperforming the market over 20 sessions? (4) Volume surge — is participation above the 20-day average? Each sub-signal contributes 0–25 points. AMG currently scores 67.
How does AMG compare to other Alternative & Independent Asset Management setups?+
AMG's sector rank and percentile against other Alternative & Independent Asset Management tickers we track is shown on the /tickers index — sortable by Amora Edge Score, win rate, or sector. For direct comparison, see the "Related Alternative & Independent Asset Management Options Setups" panel above. When multiple tickers in the same sector are scoring 80+, the algorithm flags the cluster as a sector rotation signal and may upweight position sizing.
