Here is a list of the top companies with the highest net sell volume on Thursday and lowest negative price Friction (bearish).

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     LVLT       $-0.020      -1.23%       3,675,271       37.07%       6,240,074       62.94%       -2,564,803      -1,282,402
     CTIC       $-0.031      -8.05%       6,811,487       42.79%       9,105,373       57.20%       -2,293,886      -742,358
     EEM        $-0.420      -0.84%       11,485,582      24.55%       14,949,331      31.96%       -3,463,749      -82,470 
     SIRI       $-0.010      -0.51%       25,574,643      45.96%       30,014,544      53.94%       -4,439,901      -4,439,901
     NSM        $-0.070      -0.29%       1,600,834       20.94%       4,331,628       56.67%       -2,730,794      -390,113

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have low price friction combined with more selling than buying (negative Net Volume) in their stocks. The Friction Factor displays how many more shares of buying than selling are required to move a stock higher by one cent or how many more shares of selling than buying moves a stock lower by 1 cent.

For example, the chart above shows LVLT down $-0.02000 with a Friction Factor of -1,282,402 and a Net Volume of -2,564,803. That means that it takes 1,282,402 more shares of selling than buying to drop LVLT by one penny. On Monday the Market Makers allowed the stock to move down on heavier selling than buying (low negative friction).
