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.

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     YHOO       $0.290       2.20%        20,458,428      47.49%       22,166,201      51.45%       -1,707,773      Abnormal
     PPDI       $6.620       25.80%       16,134,349      47.60%       17,534,826      51.73%       -1,400,477      Abnormal
     VOD        $0.040       0.16%        6,315,954       47.26%       7,003,603       52.41%       -687,649        Abnormal
     BMY        $0.060       0.19%        6,011,347       23.30%       7,705,295       29.86%       -1,693,948      Abnormal
     AERN       $0.040       333.33%      19,638,411      36.38%       34,341,486      63.62%       -14,703,075     Abnormal
     POTG       $0.061       20.43%       15,215,734      37.20%       24,335,534      59.49%       -9,119,800      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 YHOO with 1,707,773 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.29000. 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.
