     SPY        $-1.220      -0.90%       43,041,622      27.33%       32,819,497      20.84%       10,222,125      Abnormal
     CSCO       $-0.080      -0.47%       42,771,155      53.31%       39,609,692      49.37%       3,161,463       Abnormal
     WL         $-0.020      -0.45%       4,598,662       27.33%       2,811,522       16.71%       1,787,140       Abnormal
     YHOO       $-0.660      -3.84%       62,649,389      52.19%       57,152,286      47.61%       5,497,103       Abnormal
     CA         $-2.160      -8.62%       8,001,313       57.69%       5,717,914       41.23%       2,283,399       Abnormal
     MSFT       $-0.290      -1.15%       36,155,885      54.11%       32,182,947      48.17%       3,972,938       Abnormal
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more buying than selling on Friday and their stock prices dropped. 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 SPY with 10,222,125 greater shares of buying than selling (NetVol) and the stock price was down $-1.22000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more buying than selling should cause prices to rise.
