Here is a list of the top companies with Abnormal Price Friction (bullish bias) in their stock prices. This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices rose. BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION (NYSE:BAC), COMCAST CORP-SPECIAL CL A (NASDAQ:CMCSK), WELLS FARGO & CO (NYSE:WFC), SPRINT NEXTEL CORP (NYSE:S), BLACK DRAGON RESOURCE COS IN (OTC:BDGR), ITAU UNIBANCO HLDNG-PREF ADR (NYSE:ITUB).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     BAC        $0.050       0.62%        77,263,009      29.30%       95,282,354      36.13%       -18,019,345     Abnormal
     CMCSK      $0.140       0.67%        2,475,190       31.47%       5,344,757       67.95%       -2,869,567      Abnormal
     WFC        $0.660       2.60%        10,108,212      25.71%       14,519,980      36.94%       -4,411,768      Abnormal
     S          $0.210       5.92%        68,129,200      34.82%       72,194,021      36.89%       -4,064,821      Abnormal
     BDGR       $0.220       220,100.01%     69,200          0.21%        32,299,986      100.00%      -32,230,786     Abnormal
     ITUB       $0.340       1.93%        4,707,845       25.31%       7,624,439       40.99%       -2,916,594      Abnormal
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more selling than buying on Wednesday 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 BAC with 18,019,345 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.05000. 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.
