     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     NETL       $0.020       0.04%        3,364,019       38.40%       5,445,691       62.17%       -2,081,672      Abnormal
     GE         $0.310       1.96%        17,118,091      25.68%       20,764,567      31.15%       -3,646,476      Abnormal
     MS         $1.110       7.17%        7,733,167       28.26%       9,569,801       34.98%       -1,836,634      Abnormal
     YHOO       $0.410       2.82%        27,053,215      43.99%       33,424,478      54.35%       -6,371,263      Abnormal
     AMD        $0.130       1.80%        7,150,320       30.13%       8,193,705       34.52%       -1,043,385      Abnormal
     ORIT       $0.010       0.07%        363,759         14.72%       2,105,628       85.23%       -1,741,869      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 NETL with 2,081,672 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.02000. 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.
