Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

     Symbol     Change       Percent      Buy Volume      Buy %%       Sell Volume     Sell %%      Net Volume      Friction
     DAL        $0.420       5.38%        6,395,060       22.81%       15,544,465      55.43%       -9,149,405      Abnormal
     DELL       $0.600       4.00%        13,466,804      43.00%       17,526,318      55.97%       -4,059,514      Abnormal
     LUV        $0.450       5.67%        4,233,696       17.83%       14,599,718      61.48%       -10,366,022     Abnormal
     HPQ        $1.040       3.87%        9,812,291       27.56%       14,177,182      39.83%       -4,364,891      Abnormal
     SWY        $0.860       4.50%        2,907,034       21.59%       7,495,267       55.66%       -4,588,233      Abnormal
     PAET       $0.100       1.90%        2,656,280       22.36%       9,158,177       77.08%       -6,501,897      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 DAL with 9,149,405 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.42000. 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.
