Where AMN is headed
The post-COVID staffing bust did to AMN what 2002 did to Cisco. Revenue collapsed from the $5.2B Omicron-era sugar high, bill rates normalized, and hospitals went on a contract-labor diet that lasted longer than anyone modeled. The stock fell roughly 85% from its 2022 peak. What's left, sitting at $30 with a $1.2B market cap and $672M in free cash flow trailing, is a workforce platform trading like the cycle stays dead forever. It won't.
