"The displacement for A is treated as a 12-bit
*unsigned* binary integer. The displacement for AY,
AG, AGF, AGSI and ASI, is treated as a 20-bit *signed*
binary integer."
I contributed the asterisks. The rest is from the POps.

No such thing as a negative displacement. A displacement is more like an
unsigned immediate operand. From 0..4095 (0x000 to 0xFFF for a 12 bit
displacement) or 0..1048575 (0x00000 to 0xFFFFF for a 20 bit long displacement).
