March 25, 2011 / M2 PRESSWIRE / BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Friday. Since October 2008 market makers are now required to be on the bid as much as they are on the offer and for like amounts of stock. This Fair Market Making Requirement is designed to prevent market makers from manipulating stock prices. On Friday there were 2652 companies with "abnormal" market making, 2936 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2129 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage loss per share Friday and low price friction (bearish). This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices dropped faster with less Friction. TRIDENT MICROSYSTEMS INC (NASDAQ:TRID), LIGHTPATH TECHNOLOGIES INC-A (NASDAQ:LPTH), HYPERDYNAMICS CORP (AMEX:HDY), NEXXUS LIGHTING INC (NASDAQ:NEXS), CHINA GENGSHENG MINERALS INC (AMEX:CHGS), SENTRY PETROLEUM LTD (OTCBB:SPLM).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     TRID       $-0.110      -9.57%       1,522,771       43.62%       1,967,359       56.36%       -444,588        -40,417 
     LPTH       $-0.220      -9.36%       356,163         49.55%       357,644         49.75%       -1,481          -67     
     HDY        $-0.810      -13.48%      11,716,127      48.57%       11,881,106      49.25%       -164,979        -2,037  
     NEXS       $-0.440      -12.22%      119,332         44.01%       151,714         55.95%       -32,382         -736    
     CHGS       $-0.300      -9.40%       853,676         45.57%       1,019,497       54.42%       -165,821        -5,527  
     SPLM       $-0.350      -12.07%      335,379         35.99%       571,506         61.33%       -236,127        -6,746  

For example, the chart above shows TRID with a dollar loss Friday of $-0.11000 and a Friction Factor of -40,417 shares. That means that it only took 40,417 more shares of selling than buying to move TRID lower by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to drop quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and negative market direction can drive prices lower faster than normal.
