December 20, 2011 / M2 PRESSWIRE / BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Tuesday. 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 Tuesday there were 3554 companies with "abnormal" market making, 5042 companies with positive Friction Factors and 1876 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage loss per share Tuesday 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. NEPTUNE TECH & BIORESSOURCES (NASDAQ:NEPT), TARGACEPT INC (NASDAQ:TRGT), Agria Corp (NYSE:GRO), CHINA SHEN ZHOU MINING & RES (AMEX:SHZ), Washington Mutual Ut (OTC:WAHUQ), FEDERAL HOME LOAN MORTGAGE CORPORATION (OTC:FMCKM).

     TRGT       $-2.770      -35.60%      3,612,766       48.88%       3,716,030       50.27%       -103,264        -373

     SHZ        $-0.180      -10.59%      92,934          30.02%       123,054         39.75%       -30,120         -1,673

For example, the chart above shows NEPT with a dollar loss Tuesday of $-0.47000 and a Friction Factor of -6 shares. That means that it only took 6 more shares of selling than buying to move NEPT 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.
