December 9, 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. This Fair Market Making Requirement is designed to prevent market makers from manipulating stock prices. On Friday there were 3488 companies with "abnormal" market making, 4549 companies with positive Friction Factors and 1900 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage loss per share Friday and low price friction (bearish). This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices dropped faster with less Friction. PHARMACYCLICS INC (NASDAQ:PCYC), BOOKS-A-MILLION INC (NASDAQ:BAMM), PFSWEB INC (NASDAQ:PFSW), ECOTALITY INC (NASDAQ:ECTY), XUEDA EDUCATION GR-SPON ADR (NYSE:XUE), (OTCBB:RAYS).

For example, the chart above shows PCYC with a dollar loss Friday of $-2.23000 and a Friction Factor of -557 shares. That means that it only took 557 more shares of selling than buying to move PCYC lower by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to drop quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and negative market direction can drive prices lower faster than normal.
