September 16, 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.

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. INTUIT INC (NASDAQ:INTU), VISA INC-CLASS A SHARES (NYSE:V), PROCTER & GAMBLE CO/THE (NYSE:PG), EXXON MOBIL CORP (NYSE:XOM), ING GROEP N.V.-SPONSORED ADR (NYSE:ING), YAHOO! INC (NASDAQ:YHOO).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     INTU       $0.880       1.81%        2,859,744       24.50%       8,091,930       69.32%       -5,232,186      Abnormal
     V          $0.340       0.38%        1,614,641       13.66%       6,951,331       58.82%       -5,336,690      Abnormal
     PG         $1.550       2.47%        4,758,546       19.95%       8,146,763       34.15%       -3,388,217      Abnormal
     XOM        $0.550       0.74%        5,278,374       15.65%       10,994,732      32.59%       -5,716,358      Abnormal
     ING        $0.210       2.91%        1,767,440       13.01%       9,111,640       67.05%       -7,344,200      Abnormal
     YHOO       $0.090       0.59%        24,999,013      44.95%       33,145,573      59.60%       -8,146,560      Abnormal
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more selling than buying on Friday 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 INTU with 5,232,186 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.88000. 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.
