July 22, 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 4309 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3370 companies with positive Friction Factors and 3026 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage gain per share Friday and low price friction (bullish). This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices rose faster with less Friction. PARKERVISION INC (NASDAQ:PRKR), ALTAIR NANOTECHNOLOGIES INC (NASDAQ:ALTI), CEPHEID (NASDAQ:CPHD), HAUPPAUGE DIGITAL INC (NASDAQ:HAUP), Southern Community Financial Corporation - Southern Community Capital Trust II - % Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities (NASDAQ:SCMFO), Wowjoint Holdings Limited - Common Shares (NASDAQ:BWOW).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     PRKR       $0.270       27.84%       3,923,509       53.73%       3,376,400       46.24%       547,109         20,263  
     ALTI       $0.280       35.24%       1,251,757       63.27%       723,585         36.58%       528,172         18,863  
     CPHD       $9.130       28.87%       2,311,641       53.26%       1,976,705       45.55%       334,936         367     
     HAUP       $0.300       17.34%       361,012         61.77%       220,676         37.76%       140,336         4,678   
     SCMFO      $1.600       42.11%       50,914          65.60%       26,294          33.88%       24,620          154     
     BWOW       $1.400       107.69%      641,381         51.95%       576,845         46.72%       64,536          461     
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net buy volumes (buy volume, sell volume) and low price friction 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 PRKR with a dollar gain Friday of $0.27000 and a Friction Factor of 20,263 shares. That means that it only took 20,263 more shares of buying than selling to move PRKR higher by one penny. The Market Makers are currently allowing the stock to rise quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and positive market direction can drive prices higher much faster than normal.
