Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     PFE        $0.100       0.50%        7,461,389       21.80%       9,940,615       29.04%       -2,479,226      Abnormal
     GE         $0.060       0.32%        9,288,900       23.75%       16,117,420      41.21%       -6,828,520      Abnormal
     WFC        $0.730       2.86%        10,822,584      25.23%       16,232,941      37.84%       -5,410,357      Abnormal
     CIM        $0.160       4.65%        12,689,844      31.04%       15,029,293      36.76%       -2,339,449      Abnormal
     JPM        $0.590       1.47%        7,242,661       24.20%       9,934,682       33.20%       -2,692,021      Abnormal
     QQQ        $0.030       0.05%        17,665,655      41.68%       20,424,255      48.19%       -2,758,600      Abnormal
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more selling than buying on Thursday and their stock prices rose. 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 PFE with 2,479,226 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.10000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more selling than buying should cause prices to drop.
