First let me say that I seem to be the only one who has ever written about the stock.  I, like many others who grew up in South Florida in the 60's and 70's remember Joe Flanigan and his Big Daddy's lounges.  Occasionally, when I'm in Lauderdale I still stop in at the Commercial Blvd. location for ribs or burgers and happy hour.  I see no reason for the run up in the stock price.  The fundamental numbers are very ordinary but the price has soared.  Go figure???

The 50-100 Day MACD Oscillator has been a good technical trading strategy on this stock and should continue to be used to signal entry and exit points.

All I can say is I still remember their radio spots in my youth: " You're never far from a Big Daddy's lounge".
