September 23, 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.

On Friday there were 4527 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3003 companies with positive Friction Factors and 3034 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).

The combination of low friction and positive market direction can drive prices higher much faster than normal.
