     GE         $0.150       0.99%        14,299,758      20.78%       22,021,096      31.99%       -7,721,338      Abnormal
     F          $0.030       0.30%        20,349,579      28.18%       23,968,075      33.19%       -3,618,496      Abnormal
     RF         $0.030       0.78%        6,090,038       22.24%       7,786,500       28.44%       -1,696,462      Abnormal

     CRWV       $0.025       62.50%       20,244,370      36.05%       35,219,726      62.72%       -14,975,356     Abnormal
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more selling than buying on Monday 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 MDMN with 1,695,009 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.01150. 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.
