Considering ultra light market conditions, recent volume is more than generous.

Even more encouraging in the context of a tiny 2.4 mil float.
Stochastics do indeed appear stretched but this can be misleading. When referencing the year long chart, clearstation.com. the massive double bottom becomes truly pronounced. SBGI is fully consolidated.
Recent press is more than promising. marketwatch.newsalert.com.
Excerpt from MKTW: Sinclair Broadcast Group (SBGI: news, msgs) rose 1 1/4, or 7 percent, to 20 5/16. The stock is approaching its 52-week high of 26 1/4, set last August 18.
When considering the recently resolved regulatory limbo was the cause of the extended depression, a return to the previous 52 week high of 26 1/4 is a realistic minimal target here.
